Gigabit Ethernet Solution
LevelOne's GSW-0806 Gigabit Ethernet Switch is an ideal solution for solving traffic block at the core of the network. It is equipped with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and reaching 10Gbps backplane bandwidth thus creating high-speed backbone data transmissions. With its Gigabit Technology, this GSW-0806 is able to handle the multi-media, video streaming or real-time broadcast applications through your workgroup. Moreover, this switch will also fit into any enterprise level network to act as an exit to the backbone switch.
Switching Technology
This GSW-0806 combines dynamic memory allocation with a store-and-forward switching architecture to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each port. It also controls the data flow between transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss. All ports support Auto-MDIX allowing uplinking to another switch directly without cable selection hassle.
Easy to Use
This unit is small and desktop-sized specially designed to fit in space-limited locations. Users can immediately use any of the features of this product simply by attaching the cables and turning on the power to improve your network backbone performance. For instant error detection, the switch is equipped with a full range of LEDs to help you monitor and troubleshoot problems on your network.
