Product Description
The Asant? FriendlyNET FS4000P series switches can increase performance on your network by bringing dedicated 10 or 100 Mbps bandwidth to small workgroups or straight to the desktop at a price comparable to many 10/100 hubs. The switches' 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet capability can eliminate bottlenecks in connections to servers or can link 10 Mbps workgroups to a 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet network backbone. For connections to servers and workstations, the switch supports full-duplex operation on each port, effectively doubling the total throughput on individual links for maximum performance.
