2.0 Package Contents Examine the shipping container for obvious damage prior to installing this product. Notify the carrier of any damage that you believe occurred during shipment. Ensure that the items listed below are included. If an item is missing, please contact your supplier. 3.
4.2 Switch Topology Theoretically, the switch partitions the collision domain for each port so you may link switches without limitations. However, network extension (cascading levels & overall diameter) must follow IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3z and other 802.1 series protocol specifications, in which the limitations are the timing requirement from physical signals defined by 802.3 series specification of Media Access Control (MAC) and PHY, and layer 2 protocols such as 802.1d, 802.1q, and LACP.
