                        ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 1000 Figure 1-1.  Front and Rear Panels Description of Hardware 1000BASE-T Ports These ports are RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps and  1000 Mbps, full and half duplex. The ports can be connected to  other IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T compliant devices up to 100 m  (328 ft.) away using Category 5 twisted-pair cable.  Each port also supports the IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow  control, so the switch can automatically prevent port buffers  becoming saturated.  GB
