ELS100-24TX specifications

Cabletron Systems ELS100-24TX is a versatile network switch designed to cater to the demands of modern data communication. Intended for use in enterprise environments, the ELS100-24TX offers a wealth of features, making it an excellent choice for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure.

One of the standout characteristics of the ELS100-24TX is its 24 Ethernet ports, which support Fast Ethernet connectivity at 10/100 Mbps. This high port density allows organizations to connect multiple devices without the need for additional networking hardware, simplifying setup and reducing costs. The switch employs autosensing technology, enabling it to automatically detect and configure the optimal connection speed for each connected device.

The ELS100-24TX supports advanced features such as VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) functionality, permitting network administrators to segment traffic for better management and security. With VLAN support, businesses can effectively separate different departments or functions, ensuring that sensitive data remains protected within its own network segment.

Additionally, the switch incorporates Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), which is crucial for preventing broadcast storms and ensuring network stability. STP helps maintain loop-free topology in redundant network configurations, making it an essential feature for enterprises that rely on high availability.

Another impressive aspect of the Cabletron ELS100-24TX is its support for Quality of Service (QoS). This functionality allows network managers to prioritize specific types of traffic, ensuring that critical applications—such as voice over IP (VoIP) or video conferencing—receive the necessary bandwidth for optimal performance.

In terms of management, the ELS100-24TX features a user-friendly interface and provides various management protocols, including SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This makes it easier for system administrators to monitor network performance, troubleshoot issues, and configure settings efficiently.

The robust design of the ELS100-24TX offers reliable operation, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. With its solid performance, excellent feature set, and ease of use, the Cabletron Systems ELS100-24TX is a valuable asset for any organization looking to strengthen its network capabilities.
