CHAPTER 2 ABOUT THE SWITCH Overview This switch is an ideal solution for delivering Internet access to individual users in multi-dwelling or multi-tenant units (MDUs/ MTUs), such as apartment housing blocks, commercial buildings or hotels. This switch provides rate-limitable connections to individual users with secure port-to-port isolation between users – all with conventional Ethernet cabling and adapters. At an MDU/MTU site, up to 24 other switches can be cascaded from one switch, provi

A BO U T TH E S WI T C H Switch Architecture The switch contains 24 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports on the front panel. Each port can provide a dedicated link directly to an end-user PC, or be attached to another Ethernet switch/hub at the end-user’s premises and used as a shared link. The switch completely eliminates the bottlenecks of dial-up internet access by offering a configurable bandwidth of up to 100 Mbps full duplex for each end-user connection. For all port connections, the swi

A BO U T TH E S WI T C H minimizes the total number of VLANs required. Private VLANs and normal VLANs can exist simultaneously in the same switch. Multicast Switching Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to ensure that it does not interfere with normal network traffic and to guarantee real-time delivery by setting the required priority level for the designated VLAN. The switch uses IGMP Snooping. Traffic Priority This switch provides Quality of Service (QoS) by prioriti
