Publication date: Feb., 2012Revision A17NETWORK PLANNINGINTRODUCTIONTO SWITCHINGA network switch allows simultaneous transmission of multiplepackets, and it can partition a network more efficiently thanbridges or routers. Therefore the switch has been recognized asone of the most important devices for today’s networkingtechnology.When performance bottlenecks are caused by congestion at thenetwork access point such as file server, the device can beconnected directly to a switched port. And, by using full-duplexmode, the bandwidth of the dedicated segment can be doubledto maximize throughput.When networks are based on repeater (hub) technology, thedistance between end stations is limited by a maximum hopcount. However, a switch can subdividing the network intosmaller and more manageable segments, and linking them tothe larger network than it turns the hop count back to zero andremoves the limitation.A switch can be easily configured in any Ethernet, Fast Ethernet,or Gigabit Ethernet network to significantly increase bandwidthwhile using conventional cabling and network cards.APPLICATIONEXAMPLESThe GS-2328KX-Port Series Switch implements 24 GigabitEthernet TP ports with auto MDIX and 4 slots for the removableSFP module (GS-2328KX) which supports comprehensive typesof fiber connection, such as LC and BiDi-LC modules. It is notonly designed to segment your network, but also to provide awide range of options in setting up network connections. Sometypical applications are described below.The switch is suitable for the following applications. Remote site application is used in Enterprise or SMB Peer-to-peer application is used in two remote offices Office network High Performance Requirement environment Advance Security for network safety application Suitable for data/ voice and video conference application |
