3Com 3C16475A Baseline Switch 2226 24-Port 100MBPS Ethernet Switch

The 3Com Baseline Switch 2226 delivers highly affordable wirespeed Layer 2 switching for small to mid-sized networks that don't need management capabilities. The switch includes 24 10/100 switching ports and two dual-purpose ports for copper or fiber Gigabit connections. Choose between running high-speed 10/100/1000 for fixed copper network backbones or servers or Gigabit SFPs (Small Form-Factor Plug-in or mini-GBIC) with 1000BASE-LX or -SX transceiver modules for connections to fiber backbones or servers.Advanced switching features such as IEEE 802.1p traffic prioritization with two Class-of-Service (CoS) priority queues make sure that real-time applications such as video and audio take priority so they run effectively, and enable the switch to operate in larger network environments.Auto MDI/MDIX ports identify and adapt to the Ethernet cable type, eliminating the most common cabling errors and simplifying installation. Autosensing ports detect and adjust to the speed of the connected device to optimize network performance. The switch is designed to operate as a free-standing or rack-mounted switch with included mounting kit. The standard 19-inch, one rack-unit-high (1 RU) enclosure optimizes valuable office space. Its sturdy design and construction pays off in high reliability and long service life.
