Technical Features - Atlantis NetMaster G5 Mode D'emploi

For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of eliminating problems of
chaining hubs beyond the "two-repeater limit." A switch can be used to split parts
of the network into different collision domains, making it possible to expand your
Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter network diameter limit for 100BASE-
TX networks. Switches supporting both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps
Fast Ethernet are also ideal for bridging between the existing 10Mbps networks and
the new 100Mbps networks.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation of
network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers have also
been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a router, the setup and
maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today switches are an
ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems.

2. Technical Features

The Switch was designed for easy installation and high performance in an
environment where traffic on the network and the number of user increase
continuously.
The Switch with its small, compact size was specifically designed for small to middle
workgroups. This Switch can be installed where space is limited; moreover, they
provide immediate access to a rapidly growing network through a wide range of
user-reliable functions.
