Seamless Integration
The Web Smart Switches are designed to provide SMB users a complete control over the network.
With Ethernet and Gigabit copper ports capable of connecting to existing Cat.5 twisted-pair cables,
these switches eliminate the need for a complex reconfiguration process. The DES-1210 Series allows
for flexible connection to a backbone or servers. Additionally, all ports support auto-negotiation of
MDI/MDIX crossover, or configurable auto MDI and therefore do away with crossover cables or uplink
ports. This brings inexpensive and easy connectivity to your desktop.
Extensive Layer 2 Features
Equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, these switches include IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring,
Spanning Tree and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The IEEE 802.3x Flow Control function allows servers to directly connect to the switch for fast, reliable data transfer. At 2000Mbps Full Duplex, the Gigabit ports provide high-speed data pipes to servers with minimum data transfer loss. Network maintenance features include Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port and automatically shut down the affected port. Cable
Diagnostics is designed for network administrators to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables and also determine the type of cable error.
