INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the Switch and
some background information about Ethernet/Fast
Ethernet switching technology.
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing
complexity of desktop computing applications are
fueling the need for high performance networks. A
number of high-speed LAN technologies have been
proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve
client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-
TX (Fast Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth
evolution from the current 10BASE-T technology. The
non-disruptive and smooth evolution nature, and the
dominating potential market base, virtually guarantee
cost effective and high performance Fast Ethernet
solutions in the years to come.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a standard specified by the
IEEE 802.3 LAN committee. It is an extension of the
10Mbps Ethernet standard with the ability to
transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while
maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol.

Switching Technology
Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of
Ethernet technology is the development of switching
technology. A switch bridge Ethernet packets at the
MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol,
transmitting among connected Ethernet and/or Fast
Ethernet LAN segments.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total
network capacity available to users on a local area
network. A switch increases capacity and decreases
network loading by dividing a local area network into
different segments, which don’t compete with each
other for network transmission capacity.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge
between the individual segments. The switch, without
interfering with any other segments, automatically
forwards traffic that needs to go from one segment to
another. By doing this, the total network capacity is
multiplied, while still maintaining the same network
cabling and adapter cards.
For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective
way of eliminating problems of chaining hubs beyond
the “two-repeater limit.” A switch can be used to split
parts of the network into different collision domains,
3
making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet
network beyond the 100BASE-TX network’s 205-meter
network diameter limit. Switches support both
traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast
Ethernet. They are also ideal for bridging between the
existing 10Mbps networks and the 100Mbps networks.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement
over the previous generation of network bridges,
which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers
have also been used to segment local area networks,
but the router costs more, is difficult to setup, and
maintenance intensive, all these make routers
relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal
solution to most kinds of local area network congestion
problems.
Features
The Switch was designed for easy installation and
high performance in an environment where traffic on
the network and the number of user increases
continuously.
The Switch with their small, desktop size was
4
specifically designed for small to middle workgroups.
This Switch can be installed where space is limited;
moreover, they provide immediate access to a rapidly
growing network through a wide range of user-reliable
functions.
The Switch is ideal for deployment with multiple high-
speed servers for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or
100Mbps workgroups. With the 200Mbps high
bandwidth (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can
provide workstations with a congestion-free data pipe
to access the server/workstation.
The Switch is expandable by cascading two or more
switches together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the
Switch can be cascaded from any port and to any
number of switches.
The Switch is a perfect choice for site planning to
upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet
workgroups can connect to the Switch now, and
change adapters and hubs anytime later without
changing the Switch or reconfigure the network for
migrating to Fast Ethernet.
The Switch combine dynamic memory allocation with
store-and-forward switching scheme to ensure that the
buffer is effectively allocated for each port, while
