Black Box LGB2118A-R2 16-Port Gigabit Managed Network Switch

Black Box LGB2118A-R2 Overview

Meet your business s growing needs by expanding your network with the LGB2118A-R2 16-Port Gigabit Managed Network Switch from Black Box. Designed for easy use and management, this entry-level Layer 2 switch includes 16 Gigabit-speed Ethernet ports.

Two SFP ports are available for Gigabit-speed fiber uplinks. With a 36 Gb/s switching capacity and 26.7 Mpps forwarding rate, this switch is designed to deliver smooth data transfers. The metal chassis and fanless design allows it to operate silently in the background of your office.

Easy Management

Simply access a switch via your Web browser and log on to monitor, configure, and control each port s activity. It also supports SNMP V1/V2c. In addition, the switch supports Quality of Service (QoS), port mirroring, and tag- and port-based VLAN.

High Efficiency

This switch not only supports Layer 2 802.1p Priority Queue control, but it also provides enhanced QoS support for real-time applications like Voice over IP (VoIP). And it supports Layer 4 TCP/UDP port and ToS classification.

Port Mirroring

Port mirroring copies traffic from one specific port to a second target port. This mechanism enables you to track network errors or abnormal packet transmissions without interrupting the flow of data. All ports on the switch are capable of port mirroring.

Smooth Traffic

You can use VLAN to isolate traffic between different users and thus provide better security. Plus VLAN enables you to confine the broadcast traffic to the same VLAN broadcast domain to boost network performance. IGMP V1/V2 snooping limits bandwidth-intensive multicast traffic to only the requesters.

Enhanced Performance

The switch enables you to combine ports to create a multilink, load-sharing trunk. Port trunks are useful for switch-to-switch cascading, which provides very fast, full-duplex speeds for high-volume communications. All ports are autosensing for speed and auto-negotiating for duplex. The switch s Auto MDI/MDI-X feature means you never need a crossover cable. Furthermore, the switch supports IEEE 802.x flow control for full-duplex mode and collision-based backpressure for half-duplex mode.
