The DES-1016D is an unmanaged 10/100Mbps switch designed to enhance workgroup
performance while providing a high level of flexibility.
Powerful yet easy to use, this device allows users to simply plug any port to
either a 10Mbps or 100Mbps network to multiply bandwidths, boost response
time and satisfy heavy load demands.
16 Auto-sensing 10/100Mbps Ports
The switch comes with 16 10/100Mbps ports, allowing a workgroup to flexibly connect
to Ethernet and Fast Ethernet and integrate.These intelligent ports detect the
network speed and auto-negotiate between 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T, as well as between
full- and halfduplex.
Flow Control for Secure Transmission
In the fast 200Mbps full-duplex mode, the switch's embedded flow control provides
a means to protect users against possible data loss during transmission on the
network.
When connected to a LAN adapter (server PC) that supports flow control, the switch
sends signals to the server regarding the switch's buffer overrun during peak
usage periods.
The server then delays transmission until the switch is ready again to accept
new data.
Easy Expansion
An MDI uplink port supporting 10/100Mbps connection is provided, allowing the
workgroup to easily expand.
2 switches can be cascaded together through this MDI uplink to increase the port
density.
Running at 200Mbps full-duplex speed, this port provides a fast switch-to-switch
dedicated bandwidth.
Workgroup Plug-and-Play
With 16 plug-and-play ports, the switch is a perfect choice for workgroups to
upgrade performance in a client/server environment.
The ports can be connected to servers in full-duplex, or to hubs in half-duplex.
Desktop Power
With low-cost connection per-port, the switch can also be set up for direct connection
from the PCs.
This relieves data bottleneck by giving each workstation a dedicated bandwidth
on the network.
