flawless performance. To ensure that you can manage any kind of network load, the extender modules provide adaptive cut- through switching based on Accton’s smart algorithm. This method dynamically changes the way it handles data based on the current error rate. This switching strategy start at fragment- free for a clean to moderately dirty data environment, and changes to store-and-forward for a highly contentious environment. By using this method, the SmartExtender Modules deliver the best networking performance under any environment.

Moreover, in addition to using adaptive switching to optimize throughput, these modules also support back pressure to eliminate frame loss after their buffers fill by “blocking” unwanted traffic from being passed onto a segment.
