Introduction of OEM Ethernet Switches

Table of Content [Hide]

In today's network architecture, Ethernet switches is very important. They not only allow data packets to be exchanged between devices but also bring many features that can optimize network performance and security.

Functions of OEM Ethernet Switches

Packet Switching

OEM ethernet switches act like traffic hubs in the network, specializing in efficiently transmitting data packets between different devices, thus improving the communication efficiency of the entire network.

MAC Address Recognition

Ethernet switches can identify the MAC addresses of devices connected to the network and store them in an address table, which can speed up the forwarding of data packets.

Network Segmentation

Using VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) technology, Ethernet switches can divide a physical network into several logical subnets to achieve data isolation and secure communication.

Quality of Service (QoS) Support

Ethernet switches have QoS capabilities, allowing them to prioritize different types of traffic to ensure the smooth operation of critical services.

Link Aggregation

This feature combines multiple physical links into a single logical link to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy, thereby enhancing network performance and reliability.

Working Principle of OEM Ethernet Switches

Learning MAC Addresses

When a data frame is received, the ethernet switch OEM records the relationship between the source MAC address and the corresponding port.

Forwarding Packets

Based on the destination MAC address, the ethernet switch OEM forwards the data frame to the designated port.

Flooding Mechanism

If the destination MAC address is unknown, the OEM ethernet switch broadcasts the data frame to all ports to ensure that the information reaches the specified location.

Advantages of OEM Ethernet Switches

High-Speed Transmission

Supports gigabit or even 10G data transmission speeds, meeting the needs of modern networks.

Flexibility

Automatically configures ports based on device demands, enhancing network scalability.

Security

Enhances network security through MAC address filtering and VLAN isolation.
