Chapter 1 Introduction - EZ Switch 1000
The SMC family of EZ Switch 1000 Gigabit Ethernet Switches
(SMC8504T & SMC8506T) is the perfect solution for bottlenecks at
the core of a network. Bottlenecks are the inevitable result of data-
intensive applications and the proliferation of new users. SMC ’s EZ
Switch 1000 provides a seamless migration to higher-speed
networking while solving bandwidth issues. It is designed to allow
simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via an internal high-
speed data channel.
In addition, the SMC8506T is also support one module slot for 2
Ethernet Gigabit ports to uplink to a server or network backbone.
These gigabit switches are designed for Plug and Play installation,
allows the network administrator to simply connect the network and
power cables and the Switching/bridging functions begin
automatically.
