D-Link DES-1026G User Manual - Features And Benefits
used to split parts of the network into different collision domains, making it
possible to expand your Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter
network diameter limit for 100BASE-TX networks. Switches supporting
both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet are also
ideal for bridging between existing 10Mbps networks and new 100Mbps
networks.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous
generation of network hubs and bridges, which were characterized by
higher latencies. Routers have also been used to segment local area
networks, but the cost, setup, and maintenance required make routers
relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal solution to most kinds
of local area network congestion problems.
