Level One FSW-0508TX User Manual

FSW-0508TX Version: 6

5-Port Fast Ethernet Switch

LevelOne’s FSW-0508TX 5-Port Fast Ethernet Switch combines efficient technology with a unique design.
This switch is equipped with 5 10/100Mbps ports capable of reaching the highest bandwidths up to
200Mbps for each port to provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to
the server.

Each port of the FSW-0508TX supports an auto-negotiation function that can automatically set the best
possible bandwidth when a connection is established with another network device. The store-and-forward
switching mechanism ensures that no error packets occur and provide maximum efficiency and stability.
With Auto-MDIX function, this switch is expandable by cascading two or more switches together by
uplinking directly without cable selection hassle.

Its small and compact size is specially designed to fit in limited-space locations for SOHO or home usage.
Users can immediately access any needed features simply by attaching the cables and turning on the
power. For instant error detection, the switch is equipped with a full range of LEDs to help you monitor and
troubleshoot problems on your network.
