Features
The DES-1005D is a high performance switch designed specifically for
environments where traffic on the network and the number of users
increase continuously.
The DES-1005D, with its small, compact size, was specifically designed
for small to mid-sized workgroups. The DES-1005D can be installed
where space is limited; moreover, it provides immediate access to a
rapidly growing network through a wide range of user-reliable functions.
The DES-1005D is ideal for deployment with multiple high-speed servers
for 10Mbps or 100Mbps shared-bandwidth workgroups. With the highest
bandwidth at 200Mbps (100Mbps full-duplex mode), any port can provide
workstations with a congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to
the server.
The DES-1005D is scalable, allowing two or more DES-1005D to be
cascaded together. Since all ports support 200Mbps, any one of its five
ports may be used to cascade to an additional switch to open a Full-Duplex
Fast Ethernet pipe.
The DES-1005D is the perfect choice for a department or office planning
to upgrade to Fast Ethernet. The DES-1005D can accommodate 10Mbps
or 100Mbps devices, providing a flexible solution for existing (10Mbps)
Ethernet workgroups.
The DES-1005D combines dynamic memory allocation with store-and-
forward switching to ensure that the buffer is effectively allocated for each
port; and it controls the data flow between the transmit and receive nodes
to guarantee against possible packet loss.
The DES-1005D is an unmanaged 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet switch that
offers solutions for the accelerating bandwidth needs of small Ethernet
workgroups.
Other key features include:
Auto-MDI/MDI-X function supports automatic MDI/MDI-X
crossover detection, giving true ‘plug and play’ capability—Crossover
or Straight-Through CAT5 cables can be plugged into any port.
