Switches control the fow of network traffc based on the address information in each packet. A switch learns which devices are connected to its ports (by monitoring the packets it receives), and then forwards on packets to the appropriate port only. This allows simultaneous communication across the switch, improving bandwidth.Stack Port: NoTotal Number of Network Ports: 5Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports: 5Port/Expansion Slot Details: 5 x Fast Ethernet NetworkMedia Type Supported: Twisted PairEthernet Technology: Fast EthernetNetwork Technology: 10/100Base-TXLayer Supported: 2Manageable: NoPoE (RJ-45) Port: NoForm Factor: Wall MountableForm Factor: Rail-mountableWidth: 2.6Depth: 3.6"Package Contents: Unmanaged Ethernet Switch 5 Ports Quick Start Guide Green Compliant: YesGreen Compliance Certificate/Authority: RoHSGreen Compliance Certificate/Authority: WEEECountry of Origin: United KingdomLimited Warranty: LifetimePackage Contents Unmanaged Ethernet Switch 5 Ports Quick Start Guide "
