PCI Specification <strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> English V1.0<br />
The On-Board 24 Ports Support 10/100BASE-TX Auto-Negotiation<br />
The <strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> is equipped with twenty-four 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Auto-Negotiation RJ-45<br />
ports. The ports also support full duplex operation.<br />
Supports 800Mbp High Speed Data Transfer<br />
In cascade connections between ordinary switches, only up to 200Mbp (full duplex) of bandwidth can<br />
be reserved. This limitation has been a serious bottleneck in <strong>net</strong>works requiring faster data throughput.<br />
The <strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> removes the limitation by providing 800Mbps of bandwidth via four cables directly<br />
connected to the other switch ("Trunking"). In this manner, the switch significantly speeds up a switch<br />
backbone. Unlike conventional switches that can be trunked to only a certain group of switches, the<br />
<strong>FHSW</strong>-24224NX can be trunked to any switch as long as it supports 100BASE-TX. This feature eases<br />
the addition of the <strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> to an existing <strong>net</strong>work.<br />
Flexible Network Configuration<br />
With traditional switches, changing an existing <strong>net</strong>work configuration meant physical relocation of<br />
Switch and purchase of additional (and very often expensive) switches. Since the <strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong><br />
supports VLAN, the administrator can easily change the current <strong>net</strong>work configuration and maintain<br />
<strong>net</strong>work security without moving any device at all. The port-based VLAN scheme is easy to use - even<br />
a novice administrator can set up VLAN groups with ease.<br />
Fault Tolerant Design<br />
Traditional switches cascade to another hub via one <strong>net</strong>work cable. In this case, da ta communications<br />
between the parties are easily lost whenever the cascade cable fails. On the other hand, the<br />
<strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> can link to another switch via two cables (Redundant Link). Should either cable fail,<br />
the switch uses the remaining cable to sustain ongoing communications. You can count on the<br />
<strong>FHSW</strong>-<strong>2424NX</strong> even when it's placed in a mission-critical <strong>net</strong>work!<br />
Speeds Up Your Switching Network<br />
The Switch supports IEEE802.3x Flow Control at full duplex which prevents packet losses caused by<br />
mismatches between the sending speeds and the receiving speeds (bandwidth). The end result is a<br />
significantly more efficient <strong>net</strong>work with a much higher throughput.<br />
