performance) specifications of the Switch.

Appendix B, RJ-45 Pin Specification. Describes the

RJ-45 receptacle/connector and the straight and

crossover cable.

INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the features of the Switch and

some background information about Ethernet/Fast

Ethernet switching technology.

Fast Ethernet Technology

The growing importance of LANs and the increasing

complexity of desktop computing applications are

fueling the need for high performance networks. A

number of high-speed LAN technologies have been

proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve

client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-

TX (Fast Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth

evolution from the current 10BASE-T technology. The

non-disruptive and smooth evolution nature, and the

dominating potential market base, virtually guarantee

cost effective and high performance Fast Ethernet

solutions in the years to come.

100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a standard specified by the

IEEE 802.3 LAN committee. It is an extension of the

10Mbps Ethernet standard with the ability to

transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while

maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol.

Switching Technology

Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of

Ethernet technology is the development of switching

technology. A switch bridge Ethernet packets at the

MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol,

transmitting among connected Ethernet and/or Fast

Ethernet LAN segments.

Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total

network capacity available to users on a local area

network. A switch increases capacity and decreases

network loading by dividing a local area network into

different segments, which don’t compete with each

other for network transmission capacity.

The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge

between the individual segments. The switch, without

interfering with any other segments, automatically

forwards traffic that needs to go from one segment to

another. By doing this, the total network capacity is

multiplied, while still maintaining the same network

cabling and adapter cards.

For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective

way of eliminating problems of chaining hubs beyond

the “two-repeater limit.” A switch can be used to split

parts of the network into different collision domains,

making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet

network beyond the 100BASE-TX network’s 205-meter

network diameter limit. Switches support both

traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast

Ethernet. They are also ideal for bridging between the

existing 10Mbps networks and the 100Mbps networks.

Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement

over the previous generation of network bridges,

which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers

have also been used to segment local area networks,

but the router costs more, is difficult to setup, and

maintenance intensive, all these make routers

relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal

solution to most kinds of local area network congestion

problems.

Features

The Switch was designed for easy installation and

high performance in an environment where traffic on

the network and the number of user increases

continuously.

The Switch with their small, desktop size was

specifically designed for small to middle workgroups.

This Switch can be installed where space is limited;

moreover, they provide immediate access to a rapidly

growing network through a wide range of user-reliable

functions.

The Switch is ideal for deployment with multiple high-

speed servers for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or

100Mbps workgroups. With the 200Mbps high

bandwidth (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can

provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe

to access the server/workstation.

The Switch is expandable by cascading two or more

switches together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the

Switch can be cascaded from any port and to any

number of switches.

The Switch is a perfect choice for site planning to

upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet

workgroups can connect to the Switch now, and

change adapters and hubs anytime later without

changing the Switch or reconfigure the network for

migrating to Fast Ethernet.

The Switch combine dynamic memory allocation with

store-and-forward switching scheme to ensure that the

buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while
