ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 100

•Provides data security by restricting all traffic to the originating VLAN, except where a connection has been configured between separate VLANs using a router or Layer 3 switch.

Multicast Switching

Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to ensure that it does not interfere with normal network traffic and to guarantee real-time delivery by setting the required priority level for the designated VLAN. The switch uses IGMP Snooping and IGMP to manage multicast group registration.

Traffic Priority

This switch provides Quality of Service (QoS) by prioritizing each packet based on the required level of service, using two distinct categories with Weighted Fair Queuing. It uses IEEE 802.1p and 802.1Q tags to prioritize incoming traffic based on input from the end-station application. These functions can be used to provide independent priorities for delay-sensitive data and best-effort data.

Figure 1-6. 2-Port 100BASE-FX Multimode Fiber Module

Using multimode fiber optic cable, the 100BASE-FX port can be connected to a remote site up to 2 km (1.24 mi.) away. This port operates only at 100 Mbps, full duplex. This module is fitted with an SC connector, but you can attach an ST plug to the switch using the optional SC-ST Converter (Part Number: 99-012034-091).
