EZNET-16SW 10/100 Auto-Negotiating Dual Speed Switch

SMC's EZNET 10/100 switches auto-negotiating desktop switches that are as easy to install and use as an ordinary hub, with the added dimension of dramatically improving network performance by offering speeds up to 200 Mbps per port. Since full bandwidth capability is achieved on each individual port, the congestion problems of shared hubs are easily avoided. Powerful enough to run your network's backbone, yet so easy they can be used in place of your desktop hubs, the EZNET family of switches bring the power of switching technology at an affordable price. Auto-sensing Ports The EZNET 10/100s feature full auto-negotiating 10/100Mbps on all ports, which automatically detect the speed and duplex modes of attached devices and allow the switch to automatically configure itself for optimum performance. Advanced Features The EZNET 10/100s provide a buffered "store-and-forward" architecture, which prevents bad packets from propagating throughout the network. They also provide Back Pressure and Flow Control to prevent packet loss and ensure peak performance at all times. Simple to Install Truly Plug-and-Play, the EZNET 10/100s automatically learn about the devices on your network and configure themselves, avoiding complicated setup procedures. Mounting The EZNET 10/100s are designed to be rack-mounted. For added sturdiness, the switches are housed in steel casings and include a rack-mount kit. At-a-Glance LEDs The EZNET 10/100s provide a Power LED, along with individual LEDs that show the link/activity, speed, and duplex status for each port. Satisfaction Guaranteed As with all SMC products, the EZNET 10/100s are backed by SMC's Customer Satisfaction Guarantee. SMC stands behind these high-performance switches with a limited lifetime warranty and free technical support. Whenever you purchase SMC products, you can always be sure you are getting unsurpassed quality, reliability, and value.
