required make routers relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems.

Features

·The Switches were designed for easy installation and high Performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of user increase continuously.

·The Switches with their small, compact size were specifically designed for small to middle workgroups. These Switches can be installed where space is limited; moreover, they provide immediate access to a rapidly growing network through a wide range of user-reliable functions.

·The Switches are ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps workgroups. With the highest band- width 200Mbps (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can provide worksta- tions with a congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to the server.

·The Switches are expandable by cascading two or more switches together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the Switches can be cascaded from any port and to any number of switches.

·The Switches are a perfect choice for site planning to upgrade to Fast Eth- ernet in the future. Ethernet workgroups can connect to the Switches now, and change adapters and hubs anytime later without needing to change the Switches or reconfigure the network.

·The Switches combine dynamic memory allocation with store-and- forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss.

·The Switches are an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch that offers solu- tions in accelerating small Ethernet workgroup bandwidth.
