The GO-SW-5E is scalable, allowing two or more GO-SW-5E to be
cascaded together. Since all ports support 200Mbps, any one of its five
ports may be used to cascade to an additional switch to open a Full-Duplex
Fast Ethernet pipe.
The GO-SW-5E is the perfect choice for a department or office planning
to upgrade to Fast Ethernet. The GO-SW-5E can accommodate 10Mbps
or 100Mbps devices, providing a flexible solution for existing (10Mbps)
Ethernet workgroups.
The GO-SW-5E combines dynamic memory allocation with store-and-
forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each
port; and it controls the data flow between the transmit and receive nodes
to guarantee against possible packet loss.
The GO-SW-5E is an unmanaged 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet switch that
offers solutions for the accelerating bandwidth needs of small Ethernet
workgroups.
Other key features include:
Auto-MDI/MDI-X function supports automatic MDI/MDI-X
crossover detection, giving true ‘plug and play’ capability—Crossover
or Straight-Through CAT5 cables can be plugged into any port.
Nway Auto-negotiation for any port. This allows for auto-sensing of
speed (10/100Mbps), providing an automatic and flexible solution for
the network.
Flow control for any port. This minimizes dropped packets by sending
out collision signals when the port’s receiving buffer is full.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc., per port at
wire-speed for 100Mbps operation and 10Mbps operation.
