General Information

Features & Benefits

10/100 Switching
Are bandwidth-intensive applications slowing your network to a crawl? This economical entry-level switch, designed for larger or growing small offices, speeds database, accounting, and multimedia applications and file exchange. It excels at connecting high-speed servers, a backbone, or power-user workstations to a small-office LAN. Or use it to add more Fast Ethernet hubs to a workgroup. "Plus" switches offer advanced features such as auto MDI/MDIX on every port to simplify installation, and traffic prioritization to enable real-time video and audio applications to run over the network.
