Introduction
The 10/100 Switch
With its advanced switching technology, the Linksys 16- or 24-Port
10/100 Switch will boost your network performance with much more
than just full duplex data transfer and dedicated bandwidth. It features
non-blocking, wire-speed switching that forwards packets as fast as
your network can deliver them. Also included are Address Learning
and Aging to prevent data transfer errors and Data Flow Control to help
prevent packet collisions.
You have several installation options. The Switch’s compact size fits onto
your desktop, or use the wall mount slots to hang it somewhere out
of the way. If your network equipment is in a rack, install it using the
included rack mount brackets.
No matter how intensive your network demands, the Linksys 16- or
24-Port 10/100 Switch has speed, flexibility, and reliability that you can
count on.
