Why Gigabit Connectivity?

	As you more add more applications and devices to your network, you need an easy to use, reliable switch that can alleviate bottlenecks and help prevent network downtime.

	Your employees need the ability to communicate with each other and with customers and to share printers and access business files.

	Dealing with a sluggish or unavailable network decreases productivity and slows down business.

Why Upgrade?

	In a typical client-server computing model, the network was for file transfer, resource sharing and access the Internet, where the actual processing of information took place on the desktop.

	As business use real-time multimedia content, storage area networking and remote application servers, higher demands are placed on networks.

	Maintaining the proper bandwidth of this backbone and other portions of the network infrastructure is necessary for efficient operation.

	Gigabit Ethernet provides a means to increase the overall data throughput capabilities of a network at minimal cost.

Upgrading options

Whether you plan to upgrade to Gigabit Ethernet now or in the future, there are some issues of which to be aware.

	One of the best features of the Gigabit Ethernet standard is that it will operate over existing CAT-5 cabling, assuming that the cabling and installation practices meet or exceed the standard defined in TIA/EIA-568A. Most cabling systems, currently operating properly at the 100BaseT rate should pass Gigabit Ethernet.

	Each existing cable span should be tested using a cable analyzer suitable to certify operation for the new Gigabit standard.

	For new cabling, use the new generation of cable that conforms to the new CAT-5e specification.

Starting points for upgrades.

Start at the top-most levels of the infrastructure, typically the level that handles the largest amount of aggregated data traffic, for example

	Switch-to-switch

	Switch-to-server

	Switch-to-hubs/routers

	User-to-hub (switch)

	Backbone

Easy to setup and use

	Switch with advanced features to ensure data quality and reliability.

	Twenty-Four 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports that support automatic MDI/MDI-X cable detection

	Head-of-line blocking prevention to keep slower clients from affecting the speeds of faster connected devices.

	Signal regeneration and advanced store-and-forward packet switching to optimize data transfers

	Forwards and filters packets at non-blocking, full-wire speed

High Performance

Gigabit Ethernet speeds delivers high speed connectivity to support bandwidth-intensive applications. You can connect to other devices with Gigabit interfaces including servers, workstations, and storage devices. In addition, the switch can support existing 10/100 Mbps clients with auto speed detection. With this switch you get immediate communications and file transfers, eliminating slow or sluggish network experiences and alleviating network bottlenecks.

No Management Needed

	A true drop-and-go device, the switch works completely out of the box with no complicated configuration steps or settings required prior to installation.

	Whether you’re using the switch as a satellite connector of your network or replacing the core of your infrastructure with true gigabit networking, the device automatically detects the cables you’re plugging into it—no need to root through the bin for specific crossover cables to interconnect your network devices.

Extended Capabilities

The switch future-proofs your possibilities for network expansion with two mini Gigabit Interface Converter ports (mini-GBIC) for adding fiber-optic connectivity for connecting to servers and other network switches easily and cost-effectively.

Reliable Performance

	Independent port negotiation, which selects and optimizes a half-duplex or full-duplex connection to achieve the best speeds for each attached device.

	Address learning and aging, as well as built-in 802.3x flow control with head-of-line blocking prevention, floats your high-priority traffic above common network use to ensure uninterrupted service quality. An included MAC address learning engine reduces network clutter by directing traffic precisely where you want it to go instead of unnecessarily broadcasting data to all connected devices.
