1.1 Features
Designed for resolving congestion problems caused by bandwidth-hun-
gry devices and bandwidth-intensive applications as well as a high num-
ber of users, the switches not only adhere to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T,
IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX, and 100BASE-FX standards, but also feature:
• Nine of 10/100BASE-TX auto-negotiation switched ports for
flexible connections to desktop PCs, servers and hubs.
• The 10/100BASE-TX switched ports support:
- auto speed sensing for 100Mbps or 10Mbps connection
- auto configuration with auto-negotiation devices
• One 100Mbps Fast Ethernet fiber slot supports:
- 100BASE-FX ST fiber module for MM fiber
- 100BASE-FX SC fiber module for MM and SM fiber
- 100BASE-FX MT-RJ fiber module for MM and SM fiber
- 100BASE-FX VF-45 fiber module for MM fiber
• Self learning for network configuration
• Store and forward switching to ensure only good packets are forwarded
• Full-duplex or half-duplex operation support for all switched ports
• Forwarding and filtering at full wire speed
• Supports IEEE 802.3x flow control for full-duplex operation
• Supports back-pressure flow control for half-duplex operation
• Supports IEEE 802.1d spanning tree protocol
• Supports port trunking function
• Supports port sniffer function
• Supports Web-based and SNMP management
• Full diagnostic LED indicators to indicate the power and port
status
