INTRODUCTION
This section describes the features of the Gigabit Ethernet
Switch, as well as providing some background information about
Gigabit Ethernet and switching technology.
Gigabit Ethernet Technology
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3ab Ethernet
utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support for
CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and management
objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput
over 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over
10Mbps Ethernet. Since it is compatible with all 10Mbps and
100Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a
straightforward upgrade without wasting a company’s existing
investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel.
The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit
Ethernet is essential for coping with the network bottlenecks
that frequently develop as computers and their busses get faster
and more users use applications that generate more traffic.
Upgrading key components, such as your backbone and servers
to Gigabit Ethernet can greatly improve network response times
3
as well as significantly speed up the traffic between your
subnets.
Gigabit Ethernet supports video conferencing, complex imaging,
and similar data-intensive applications. Likewise, since data
transfers occur 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet, servers
outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet adapters are able to perform 10
times the number of operations in the same amount of time.
Switching Technology
Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet
technology is in the field of switching technology. A switch
bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the
Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet 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 making it
possible for a local area network to be divided into different
segments which don’t compete with each other for network
transmission capacity, giving a decreased load on each segment.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the
individual segments. The switch automatically forwards traffic
4
that needs to go from one segment to another without interfering
with any other segments. This allows the total network capacity
to be multiplied, while maintaining the same network cabling and
adapter cards.
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 cost of a router and the
setup and maintenance required make routers relatively
impractical. Today’s switches are an ideal solution to most local
area network congestion problems.
Features
The 4-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Copper Gigabit Ethernet Switch
with External Power Supply was designed for easy installation
and high performance in an environment where traffic on the
network and the number of users increase continuously.
