2.1 Product Description
With concepts of “Easy to Install and use”, “Compact-sized
design”, and “Simple troubleshooting”, PLANET SW-504/SW-804
provides cost-conscious business and home users with the foundation
of an integrated system of small-ofce / home-ofce networking. The
SW-504/SW-804 is the fancy-shape plastic models and just right for
your network of 10 to 50 users.
The SW-504/SW-804 Desktop Fast Ethernet Switch is a Simple
and cost-effective, highly reliable network Switch. And it is the ideal
device for bridging Ethernet to Fast Ethernet workgroups or networks.
Therefore, the Switches will be the fast being recognized as one of the
most important building blocks for today networking technology.
To segment the network, ease the network trafc, the 5/8-Port
10/100Mbps are useful for the SOHO switched networks as the friendly

can be monitored at a glance.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET SW-504/SW-804 are Desktop Fast Ethernet Switches with
5/8 RJ-45 10/100Mbps ports for high-speed network connectivity. The
Switches can also automatically identify and determine the correct
transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the attached devices
with its 5/8 ports.
This Desktop Fast Ethernet Switch also supports store-and-forward
forwarding scheme to ensure low latency and high data integrity,
eliminates unnecessary trafc and relieves congestion on critical
network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, the
switches could recognize up to 1K different MAC address and enables
ltering and forwarding at full wire speed.
