Compex’s PS2208B is a Fast Ethernet Desktop Switch ideal for small and

 

Version 1.6

home office networks. It comes with 8 10/100Mbps ports capable of full or

half duplex transmission with flow control. In addition, PS2208B supports

 

full auto-negotiation that self-configures

for the highest possible operation

mode between two nodes. Unlike Hubs or Repeaters of which the 100Mbps bandwidth is shared among the ports, PS2208B is designed with a backplane of 1.6Gbps, allowing all 8 nodes to perform at full performance. Moreover, PS2208B forwards the incoming packets only to the related ports, avoiding collisions commonly seen in a Hub or Repeater.
