The CNSH-2402G backbone switch provides two Giga ports, each with 2, 000Mbps bandwidth, full duplex, collision free ports for backbone data exchanges on any network. In addition, there are twenty-four 100/10Mbps N-Way ports. This is the perfect bandwidth versatility for enterprise and medium sized networks. Each 100/10Mbps port is equipped with a VLAN function that allows network administrators to create "Virtual LANs" within the actual LAN. The built-in trunking function lets users combine several 100/10Mbps bandwidths into a single virtual bandwidth. A full range of LEDs is provided on the front panel of each model for real time viewing of network operations. The front panel also provides a convenient Console Port for easy network configuration. The CNSH-2402G is the perfect investment for networks using the latest applications. It provides cutting edge, yet stable, 2, 000Mbps bandwidth per Giga port technology (which will surpass most network demands) with the ability for 1, 000Mbps/100Mbps/10Mbps devices to communicate freely on a single network.
