Technical Specifications

Key Features

• 8x (10/100/1000Mbps) Gigabit Ethernet (TP) switching ports

compliant with IEEE802.3, 802.3u, 802.3z and 802.3ab

• 2 Gigabit Copper/SFP paired ports for support of Fibre or Copper Mini-GBIC media. SFP

ports are paired with TP ports 7 and 8. Only one of the two paired ports can be used at

any one time

• Non-blocking store-and-forward switching fabric

• Shared buffer memory integrated into ASIC

• Supports auto-negotiation for configuring speed and duplex mode

• Supports 802.3x Flow Control for full-duplex ports

• Supports collision-based and carrier-based backpressure for half-duplex ports

• All ports can be configured for disabled mode, forced mode or auto-negotiation

• Supports Head of Line (HOL) blocking prevention

• Supports broadcast storm filtering

• Web-based management provides the ability to completely manage the switch

from any web browser

• Supports Port-based VLAN and Protocol-based (IEEE802.1Q) VLAN.

• MAC address table auto-aging with programmable inter-age time

• Supports Port Trunking with flexible load distribution and failover

• Supports port sniffer mirroring function

• Supports Gigabit Ethernet Jumbo Frames and programmable maximum Ethernet frame

length from 1518 to 9208 bytes.

• Efficient self-learning and MAC address recognition mechanism enables forwarding rate

at wire speed
