For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly
processed, this Switch is an ideal solution for department users to
connect to the corporate backbone. The SMC-EZ1026DT V.2 Switch
used as segment Switch can alleviate user contention for bandwidth
and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All ports can connect
to high-speed department servers that need high bandwidth. This
Switch provides parallel communications within it’s Gigabit port,
which can run up to 2000 Mbps at Full-duplex.
The Switch makes key servers available to more users by allowing
multiple conversations to occur concurrently, thereby significantly
expanding overall network throughput. Moreover, this Switch eases
supervision and maintenance by allowing network manager
centralize multiple servers in a single location.
