2. Introduction To NWay Switch
2.1 General Description
The device is a powerful, high-performance Fast Ethernet switch, with all ports
capable of 10 or 100Mbps auto-negotiation operation (NWay) which means the
switch could automatically negotiate with the connected partners on the network
speed and duplex mode. It is ideal for micro-segmenting large networks into
smaller, connected subnets for improved performance, enabling the bandwidth
demanding multimedia and imaging applications. Moreover, the 10/100Mbps
auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate 10Mbps to 100Mbps network
with no pain. Compared to the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbps networks, the switch
delivers a dedicated 10/100Mbps connection to every attached client with no
bandwidth congestion issue. This switch also supports auto MDI / MDI-X function.
Each port could be used to connect to another switch or hub with no crossover
RJ-45 cable.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all the
network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under full-duplex
mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur simultaneously without
causing collisions as well as double the network bandwidth.
The switch is plug-n-play without any software to configure and also fully compliant
with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the rich diagnostic LEDs on the
front-panel can provide the operating status of individual port and whole system.
