SMC 8608SX 8 x 1000BASE-SX SC Managed Switch
SMC SMC8608SX
Review & Specification:
SMC's new TigerSwitch 1000 is a Gigabit Ethernet backbone switch that provides 8 full-duplex 1000BASE-SX ports. With 16 Gbps of bandwidth, this switch dramatically improves the performance of congested networks. A host of advanced features and comprehensive management capabilities make this device a potent solution for the network core.
The TigerSwitch 1000 provides high bandwidth, high-performance connectivity within and between workgroups, and increased capacity for server farms, giving users faster access to network-wide resources. Moreover, the 1000BASE-SX fiber optic ports support connections up to 550 meters (1800 feet) in length. The TigerSwitch 1000 comes fully-loaded with advanced performance-enhancing features. IGMP maintains available bandwidth by limiting multicast transmissions to subscribers only. Broadcast Storm Suppression prevents broadcast traffic storms from engulfing the network. QoS priority queuing ensures the minimum delay for real-time multimedia data across the network. Flow Control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks caused by port saturation. Port-based and tagged VLANs are also included to provide traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. The TigerSwitch 1000's integrated SNMP management agent supports 4-group RMON with in-band and out-of-band connection options. The Web-based interface means that the TigerSwitch can be managed at any time from anywhere, removing the limitations and costs associated with a fixed management station. A comprehensive set of "at-a-glance" LEDs display information about the system (power, RDP, and mgmt), port status (flow control, full-duplex, and activity), and link activity (speed, link, and disable/partition).
