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, providing broadband Internet access for up to 24
individual users on each switch.
