Features and Benefits
Connectivity # 24 dual-speed ports for easy Fast Ethernet integration and for
protection of your investment in legacy LAN equipment
# Auto-negotiation enables each RJ-45 port to automatically select
the optimum communication mode (half- or full-duplex and 10 or
100 Mbps) if this feature is supported by the attached device;
otherwise, the port can be configured manually
# Independent RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-TX ports with built-in
wiring crossovers for straight-through cable connections
# Unshielded (UTP) cable supported on all RJ-45 ports: Category 3
or better for 10 Mbps connections and Category 5 or better for
100 Mbps connections
# IEEE 802.3 Ethernet and 802.3u Fast Ethernet compliance ensures
compatibility with standards-based hubs, network cards and
switches from any vendor
Performance # Transparent bridging
# Aggregate bandwidth of 4.4 Gbps
# Switching Table with 12K MAC address entries
