Applications

This Switch segments your network, significantly increasing both
bandwidth and throughput. Each port on the Switch can be attached
to any Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet device, such as
another switch, or a server's network adapter. All ports operate at
10/100Mbps full and half duplex, or 1000Mbps full duplex, providing
up to 2Gbps of bandwidth to the attached device.
Bridging Functions
This Switch provides fully transparent bridging functions. It
automatically learns node addresses that are subsequently used to
filter and forward all traffic based on the destination address. When
traffic passes between devices attached to the same shared collision
domain, those packets are filtered from the Switch. But when traffic
must be passed between unique segments (i.e., different ports on the
Switch), the high-speed switching fabric forwards the packets at
near-zero latency.
Switching Functions
Store-and-forward switching is used to forward traffic to other ports.
This scheme ensures data integrity and provides a clean data stream.
Sample Application
This Switch is designed to operate as a small workgroup switch. It
can provide 10-, 100-, or 1000Mbps connections to workstations, or
1000Mbps full-duplex links to high-speed servers. It can also provide
a high-bandwidth uplink to the network backbone.
