Introduction

The 5/8-port Ethernet Switches are designed to allow simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via an internal high-speed data channel. This means that it can partition a network more efficiently than bridges or routers in most environments. This 5/8-port Ethernet Switches is highly reliable network switch and is the ideal device for bridging Ethernet to Fast Ethernet workgroup or networks.  Simple and cost-effective, the 5/8-port Ethernet Switch supports IEEE802.3u, IEEE802.3, 100Base-TX, 10Base-T and 100Base-FX.  The 5/8-port Ethernet Switch is therefore fast being recognized as one of the most important building blocks for today networking technology.  Compact in size and designed for Plug and Play installation, the 5-port Ethernet Switch allows the network administrator to simply connect the network and power cables and the switching/bridging functions begin automatically.  No hardware or software configurations are required.

The front panels of the 5/8-port Ethernet Switches provide LEDs for easy recognition of the switch operation status and for troubleshooting.  These LEDs display the power status for the system and link, speed, collision, full–duplex, and receive status for each port.  With 5/8-port Ethernet Switches are specifically designed for connecting workgroup devices and desktops, companies no longer have to invest in expensive and inflexible switches engineered primarily for backbone implementations.  Instead, companies can deploy scaleable, affordable switches that increase the aggregate bandwidth of the network by boosting throughput to the workgroups that need it most.
