Switch Features
Switch Features
The features of the switches include:
■
All 10/100Base-TX and 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing
and support Auto-MDIX.
■
Plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the
network cables to active network devices and your switched network is
operational.
■
Automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the RJ-45 ports when
connected to other auto-negotiating devices.
■
The 1405-5G and 1405-8G models comply with IEEE 802.3ab
(1000Base-T) standards.
■
The network ports support the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet
standard, which reduces power consumption when connected with
EEE-compliant client devices.
■
Automatic learning of the hardware addresses in each switch’s address
forwarding table. Each switch has different MAC address table sizes:
•
1405-5 Switch and 1405-5G Switch: 2K
•
1405-8 Switch: 1K
•
1405-8G Switch: 8K
■
The 1405-5G Switch and 1405-8G Switch include support for up to
9216-byte Jumbo frames to improve performance of large data transfers.
■
The 1405-5 Switch includes support for up to 2048-byte mini-Jumbo
frames to improve performance of large data transfers.
■
Support for IEEE 802.1p prioritization Quality of Service (QoS) to deliver
data to devices based on the priority and type of traffic.
■
Support for EAPoL packet forwarding for 802.1x client authentication.
■
Support for BPDU packet forwarding for switch deployment in spanning
tree networks.
■
Support for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP).
■
Fanless designed enables quiet operation for deployment in open spaces.
