  3. INTRODUCTION • GIGABIT ETHERNET IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMONLY USED NETWORKS BY VARIOUS BUSINESSES FOR THEIR INTERNAL CONNECTIVITY. • GIGABIT NETWORK SWITCHES ARE USED TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY AND TRANSMISSION DISTANCE OF THESE NETWORKS. • THESE ARE TYPICALLY THE HIGHER VERSION OF FAST ETHERNET SWITCHES, WHICH MEANS IT GRADUATES FROM A 10/100 MBPS SPEED OF FAST ETHERNET TO 10/100/1000 MBPS OR 10G

  4. Types of Gigabit Switches • UNMANAGED GIGABIT SWITCHES: THESE SWITCHES ARE THE SIMPLEST AND MOST COST-EFFECTIVE OPTIONS. • Managed Gigabit Switches:They allow network administrators to set up VLANs, control traffic, • PoE Gigabit Switches: deliver both data and power to connected devices, • Stackable Gigabit Switches: can be interconnected to create a single logical switch with increased port density.

  5. Types of Gigabit Ethernet? • 1000BASE-T: most common type of Gigabit Ethernet. • 1000BASE-SX: multi-mode fiber optic cables for data transmission. • 1000BASE-LX: designed for longer-distance connections • 1000BASE-ZX: even longer-distance connections, often reaching up to 70 kilometers. • 1000BASE-CX: short-distance connections data centers • Gigabit Ethernet refers to Ethernet standards that offer data transfer speeds of 1 Gbps (Gigabit per second). There are several types of Gigabit Ethernet:

  6. Types of Fast Ethernet? • 100BASE-TX: This type of Fast Ethernet uses Category 5 (Cat5) or higher twisted-pair copper cables for data transmission. • 100BASE-FX: This type of Fast Ethernet utilizes fiber optic cables for data transmission. It operates over two optical fibers and supports full-duplex mode as well. 100BASE-FX is commonly used for long-distance connections. Fast Ethernet refers to Ethernet standards that offer data transfer speeds of 100 Mbps (Megabits per second).

  7. Features • single • & multimode • ports • LED Indicator • Play & plug • Gigabit Ethernet switches are available in varied numbers of ports from two to 50 or even more. • They have a number of LED indicators that indicate various parameters like the type of port, status, linking, activity, and so on. • Most switches have a simple plug-and-play design which makes them easy to operate. • They are suitable for single-mode as well as multimode networks and can work in half-duplex as well as full-duplex mode in terms of flow control.

  8. Choosing RIGHT Gigabit Ethernet Switches • Power-over Ethernet switches are products that enable communication between the devices in a network by using Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) • DECIDE WHETHER YOU NEED A MANAGED OR UNMANAGED SWITCH. MANAGED SWITCHES OFFER ADVANCED FEATURES LIKE VLAN SUPPORT, QOS, AND REMOTE MANAGEMENT, WHILE UNMANAGED SWITCHES ARE PLUG-AND-PLAY DEVICES SUITABLE FOR BASIC NETWORKING NEEDS. • IF YOUR NETWORK REQUIRES DEVICES LIKE IP CAMERAS, WIRELESS ACCESS POINTS, OR VOIP PHONES, CONSIDER SWITCHES WITH POE SUPPORT. THESE SWITCHES DELIVER BOTH DATA AND POWER OVER THE SAME ETHERNET CABLE, SIMPLIFYING INSTALLATION AND REDUCING CLUTTER.

  11. Established in 1958, VERSITRON designs and manufactures copper-to-fiber connectivity products for data, voice, and video applications. These products provide a conversion from copper wire to fiber optic cable. The benefits of fiber include secure transmission, greater bandwidth, no spark hazard, and immunity to EMI/RFI, ground faults, or transients. Used by government, military, and commercial end-users, an installed base of tens of thousands of our products can be found in critical applications all over the world. • About • US • www.versitron.com/
