Switch Description
The DES-2108 is equipped with unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable
ports providing dedicated 10 or 100 Mbps bandwidth. The Switch has
8 UTP ports and Auto MDI-X/MDI-II convertible ports that can be
used for up-linking to another switch. These ports can be used for
connecting PCs, printers, servers, hubs, routers, switches and other
networking devices. The dual speed ports use standard twisted-pair
cabling and are ideal for segmenting networks into small, connected
sub-networks for superior performance. Each 10/100 port can support
up to 200 Mbps of throughput in full-duplex mode. This stand-alone
Switch enables the network to use some of the most demanding
multimedia and imaging applications concurrently with other user
applications without creating bottlenecks. The built-in Light-
Management engine can be configure the Switch's settings for priority
queuing, VLANs, and port monitoring, and port speed.
Features
The DES-2108 was designed for easy installation and high
performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the
number of users increase continuously.
