Encore ENH908-NWY Owner's manual

ENH908-NWY
8 Port Switch
The Encore’s EN908-NWY is a powerful, high-performance Fast Ethernet switching hub,
with all ports capable of 10 or 100Mbps auto-negotiation operation (NWay) which means
the switch could automatically negotiate with the connected partners on the network speed
and duplex mode. It is ideal for micro-segmenting large networks into smaller one,
connected subnets for improved performance, enabling the bandwidth demanding
multimedia and imaging applications. Moreover, the 10/100Mbps auto-sensing ability
provides an easy way to migrate 10Mbps to 100Mbps network with no pain. Compared to
the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbps networks, the switching hub delivers a dedicated
10/100Mbps connection to every attached client with no bandwidth congestion issue.
This switch also supports auto MDI/MDI-X crossover function which means each port could
be used to connect to another switchor hub using a straight thru or a crossover RJ-45 cable.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all the network
errors, including run and CRC error packets. The switching hub is plug-n-play without any
software to configure and also fully compliant with all kinds of network protocols.
