eliminates bad packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is heavy traffic on the network.

Switching, Address Learning

The Magnum CS14 and CSN14 Series units have address table capacity of 2K node addresses, and are suitable for use in large networks. They are self-learning, so that as nodes are added or removed or moved from one segment to another, the CS14- and CSN14- Series switch automatically keeps up with node locations.

An address-aging algorithm causes least-used addresses to fall out in favor of new frequently-used addresses. To reset the address buffer, cycle power down-and-up.

4.2 Auto-cross (MDIX), Auto-negotiation and Speed-sensing

The RJ-45 ports support auto-cross (MDI or MDIX) in the auto-negotiation mode according to the IEEE 802.3u standard. No crossover cables are needed when connecting the CS14’s to other unmanaged switches, legacy hubs, managed switches,
