LAN. If an Ethernet network begins to display symptoms of congestion, low throughput, slow response times, and high rates of collision, installing a switch to an network can preserve much or all of the existing network's cabling and workstation interface card infrastructure while still greatly enhancing the throughput for users.
“two-repeater limit.” A switch can be used to split parts of the network into different collision domains, making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter network diameter limit for 100BASE-TX networks. Switches...

The respective port is connected to a 10/100Mbps Ethernet network, or no link. 100Mbps When the LED lights on, the respective port is connected to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet network.
Supported input voltages range from 100~240V AC at 50~60Hz. Installation The site where you place the DES-1026G may greatly affect its performance. When installing, take the following into your consideration: Install the DES-1026G in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
