Unmanaged Switches
Unmanaged Switches
Adaptable and universal
Switches are the basic coupling elements in Ethernet
networks. They connect the Ethernet participants together.
In an Ethernet network the communication basically
originates from the participants. The switches connect the
participants together and enable the communication.
Unmanaged switches are the simplest active network
component. They do not need to be congured and are
therefore very exible. They use the basic standard protocols,
such as auto-negotiation, auto-crossing, and ow-control and
can automatically adjust to the different transmission speeds
or connector wiring.
Unmanaged switches are protocol transparent. Each port on
the switch creates an individual collision domain. The use of
twisted-pair cabling with an RJ45 interface or bre-optic
cable based on the IEEE 802.3 specication interfaces are
supported by all Weidmüller switches.
