2.1 Introduction

The 16-Port Web Smart Gigabit Ethernet Switch provides 16 10-/100-/1000-Mbps ports. It is designed for easy installation and enables high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users increase continuously. With the newest Gigabit chipset, this 19" Gigabit Ethernet switch fully supports the highest speed without any problems, even when running full-duplex fully loaded.

The switch also provides automatic crossover detection on each port, making it easy to uplink to another switch without using a crossover cable.
