The SMC EZNET-24SW is a dual-speed 10/100 Mbps desktop network switch that combines easy installation and operation with full-duplex speeds up to 200 Mbps per port. The EZNET-24SW provides 24 auto-negotiating 10/100 Mbps ports that automatically detect the speed and duplex modes of attached devices and let the switch automatically configure itself for optimum performance. Advanced features include a buffered “store-and-forward” architecture to prevent bad packets from propagating throughout the network, and back pressure and flow control to prevent packet loss and ensure peak performance at all times. The EZNET-24SW provides a Power LED along with individual LEDs that show the link/activity, speed, and duplex status for each port. Ideal for workgroups, such as those found in schools or on university campuses, the EZNET-24SW is powerful enough to run your network's backbone yet so easy, it can be used in place of your desktop hub.
