Introduction

General Description

Easily boosting your networking throughput, LevelOne GES-0852 provides you 8 10/100/1000Mbps gigabit ports that lead you to a real gigabit connection. Users are now able to transfer high bandwidth-demanded files faster and get a real efficienc y improvement with the user-friendly web-based managem ent interface. This product also equips one mini GBIC slot for your flexible fiber connection. Use of the mini-GBIC port disables the connection of 8th copper port automatically.

The management functionalities provide efficient network usage. VLAN reduces the collisions from widely broadcasting. Port aggregation enlarges the bandwidth of backbone connection. QoS is supported to secure the bandwidth for some bandwidth-demanded applications including VoIP or videoconference. The 802.3x and backpressure flow control mechanisms are also supported to ensure the correctness of data transmittin g.

Key Features

 8 fixed 10/100/1000Mbps gigabit Ethernet ports for easy network connecting

application.

 Equips one SFP port for optional fiber connection.  Provide Auto-discovery function for easy network management.  Provide 8K MAC address entries and 8 groups VLAN table  Support port mirror.  Support up to 7 ports and 4 groups port aggregation.  Support QoS for better communication quality.  Support full duplex flow control and half duplex back pressure  Store-and-forward forwarding scheme  Error packet filtering  Support Jumbo frame 9K bytes  Supports 180K bytes buffer memory  Support web-based management interface.  FCC Class A, CE, Meet RoHS
