Planet Technology FSD-504PE Switch User Manual


 
10Mbps or 100Mbps workgroups. With the highest bandwidth 200Mbps (100Mbps
full-duplex mode), any port can provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe for
simultaneous access to the server.
The Switch is expandable by cascading two or more switches together. As all ports support
200Mbps, the Switch can be cascaded from any port and to any number of switches.
The Switch is a perfect choice for site planning to upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the Ethernet
workgroups can connect to the Switch now, and change adapters and hubs anytime later
without needing to change the Switch or reconfigure the network.
The Switch support IEEE802.3af, which can easily install the Switch in any place where AC
adapter is not required. Through the UTP wire, the power of the Switch can be managed
from the central/backbone and also without fear of power shutdown.
The Switch combine dynamic memory allocation with store-and- forward switching to
ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow
between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss.
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/MDI-X on each port for Uplink to another switch, hub or repeater.
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
while 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-speed for 10Mbps
speed.
2K active MAC address entry table per port with self-learning and table-aging for the Switch.
