SMC’s EZ Switch™ 10/100s are dual-speed desktop network switches that are as easy to install and use as an ordinary hub, with the added dimension of dramatically improving network performance by offering speeds up to 200 Mbps per port. Moreover, the 5 port, SMC-EZ6505TXfeatures Auto MDI/MDI-X on each port, providing added functionality and ease of use.
Winner of PC Magazine’s Editor’s Choice Award, and voted among the magazine’s “Best of 2001” networking products, the SMC TigerStack™ II 10/100 Managed Switch (SMC6624M) is an ultra-fast high- performance switch. This managed switch has a 24-fixed port design that supports auto-MDIX 10/100 connections with a non-blocking switch fabric of 9.6Gbps. For added functionality, the TigerStack II provides two expansion slots that can support Gigabit copper, 100BASE-FX fiber, or 1000BASE-T/SX/LX fiber modules. With the purchase of optional stacking kits, the TigerStack II can be stacked up to 16 units high, providing easy management for up to 386 ports under a single IP address.
The SMC TigerStack II is the perfect switch to provide traffic security and an efficient use of network bandwidth. It supports an integrated Web-based management configuration system that is easily accessed by using any standard Web-browser. The TigerStack II’s management system supports advanced features including port or protocol based tagged VLANs, automatic GVRP VLAN registration, QoS priority queuing for real-time multimedia applications, IGMP to prevent flooding of IP multicast traffic, and LACP to facilitate linking aggregation. By using this built-in management system, network managers can configure the switch to meet a wide variety of networking requirements. To complement its management system, the switch also supports advanced security features such as RMON traps or IP filtering to prevent unauthorized users’ access. Combine these features with SMC’s support and service, and it’s not hard to see why the TigerStack II 10/100 is the ideal solution for today’s networks.
