ABOUT THE

TIGERSWITCH 100

Overview

SMC’s TigerSwitch™ 100 is a stackable switch with 24 100BASE-FX VF-45 ports, plus two slots for optional slide-in 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-X modules. One of these slots can also be used for an optional stacking module that allows you attach up to four switches to a 9.6 Gbps high-speed backplane. There is also an SNMP-based Network Management Module installed in the rear panel. This module supports both in-band and out-of-band access for managing the switch and the attached stack. (Note that a switch stack, or a switch in a standalone configuration, must have Network Management Module installed to enable all ports. The base unit alone has all ports disabled by default.)
