Unpacking Information
Thank you for purchasing this product. Before installation,
please verify that your package contains the following items.

Introduction
General Description
Easily boost your networking throughput; the product
equips 16/24 Gigabit ports that lead you to a real Gigabit
connection. Users are now able to transfer large and high
bandwidth-needed files faster and hence get a real efficiency
improvement. In addition to the cooper ports, 4 of the ports
supports fiber connection with the equipped Mini-GBIC ports
for obtaining long-distance co mmunication.
This product offers users with fast and reliable network.
The store-and-forward architecture filters errors and forwards
packets in a non-blocking environment. Flow control prevent
data loss while transmitting. The 802.3x and backpressure
flow control mechanisms work respectively for full and half
duplex modes.
The switch features with easy installation a nd maintenance.
It supports Nway auto-negotiation protocol that detects the
networking speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and the duplex modes
(Full/Half) automatically. Auto-MDI/MDI-X function alleviates
the effort to use crossover cables. Also, rich diagnostic LEDs
are provided for users to get real-time information of the
connection status.
