Introduction

The GSW-0507/GSW-0807 device are powerful,
high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch, with all ports
capable of 10, 100 or 1000Mbps 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 10/100/1000Mbps
auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate
10/100Mbps to 1000Mbps network with no pain. Compared to
the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbps networks, the switch delivers
a dedicated 10/100/1000Mbps connection to every attached
client with no bandwidth congestion issue. The
GSW-0507/GSW-0807 switch also suppo rt s auto MDI / MDI-X
function. Each port could be used to connec t to an other 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-and-play without any software to configure
and also fully compliant with all kinds of network protocols.
