Netelligent 5506 and 5606 100Base-T Switches

Key Concept: Cost-effective 100 Mb/s solution with full management support

Compaq Netelligent 5506 100Base-T switches offer cost-effective, high-performance solutions for increasing bandwidth demands and mission-critical networking applications. The managed 5606 switch supports RMON, spanning tree, and VLAN, as well as IP, IPX, remote management, and VT100/Telnet management – ideal as “collapsed backbone” connecting Fast Ethernet workgroups 10/100 switches, and direct, full-duplex connections to servers for maximum performance. Both, the unmanaged 5506 and the managed 5606 6-port switches support 100Base-TX and 100Base- FX (SC type) media.

∙Half- or full-duplex connection options enable the switch to connect to other equipment at half-duplex for normal 100Base-T speeds or full-duplex, which provides twice the normal 100Base-T bandwidth

∙The m anaged 5606 switch supports Telnet, spanning tree, RMON (Groups 1, 2, 3, and 9), roving monitor port, Level 1 and 2 VLAN, SNMP management, management application, and out-of-band management

∙Each port can handle up to 6000 MAC addresses for maximum configuration and design flexibility

∙256K memory buffer on each port ensures reliable operation when transmitting large packet bursts at high transmission rates inherent to Fast Ethernet

∙Congestion management technology optimizes performance during high network load

∙Removable/replaceable modular power supply automatically senses voltage (110-220 VAC) and frequency (50/60 Hz)

∙Load-sharing, hot-swappable redundant power supply option helps protect against down time
