The Switch is an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch
that offers solutions in accelerating small Ethernet
workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are:
Auto-MDI (media dependent interface) port supports automatic MDI/MDIX
crossover detection function gives true ‘plug and play’ capability without the need of
confusing crossover cables or crossover ports.
Store and forward switching scheme capability. As the result of complete
frame checking and error frame filtering, this scheme prevents error
packages from transmitting among segments.
NWay Auto-negotiation for any port. This allows for auto-sensing of speed
(10/100Mbps) thereby providing you with automatic and flexible solutions in
your network connections.
Flow control for any port. This minimizes dropped packets by sending out
collision signals when the port’s receiving buffer is full. Note that flow
control is only available in half duplex mode.
Data forwarding rate per port is at wire-speed for 100Mbps speed.
Data forwarding rate per port is at wire-speed for 10Mbps speed.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc., per port at wire-
speed for 100Mbps speed.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc., per port at wire-
