The EZ Switch 10/100 SMC-EZ109DT is an 8-port Fast Ethernet
switch with one Gigabit uplink port. The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
ports deliver dedicated 10/100 Mbps links to each attached LAN
segment. The Gigabit port operates at 100 and 1000 Mbps. Each
port on the switch supports automatic MDI/MDI-X detection. This
means that you can use either straight-through or crossover cables
to connect to any other network device.
Auto-negotiation is used to select the optimal transmission speed
and communication mode for each connection. With
store-and-forward switching and flow control, maximum data
integrity is always maintained, even under heavy loading. Easy
installation and reliability make this plug-and-play switch an ideal
choice for smooth Fast Ethernet integration.
