1.1 Introduction

Driven by recent advances in desktop computing technology, today_s network applications have increased in speed, power and the ability to process information. To meet the demands of these more bandwidth-intensive applications, this switch device provides significant increase in performance for your Ethernet and Fast Ethernet network. The switch comes with high number of 10/100 Fast Ethernet switched ports, each capable of transferring information simultaneously at full wire speed to control and allocate the network bandwidth. It also provides two Gigabit Ethernet slots for migration to Gigabit network smoothly.

The key features of the switch units are:

_ HighPort-countandHighBandwidth _ 100FXconnectivity

_ CopperGigabitconnectivity

_ FiberGigabitconnectivity

_ Network Management
