TAIEX Technical Assistance Information Service : 2345) (www.accton.com), the company that makes partnership work, today announced that SMC will be introducing the first in a series of intelligent L2/4 switches based upon Accton's new LEO Enterprise Workgroup Switching A network switch designed for LAN traffic within an enterprise. Contrast with carrier-class switch. technology: the SMC6724AL2 TigerSwitch(TM) 10/100 L2 24 Port Switch. Available beginning on Jan. 7, 2004 at an MSRP MSRP Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price MSRP Message Session Relay Protocol MSRP Multi-Species Recovery Plan (US Fish & Wildlife Service) MSRP Member of the Society for Radiological Protection (UK) of $399.99, the SMC6724AL2 -- the first Accton LEO-based switch to be marketed worldwide -- breaks performance and pricing barriers to bring intelligent, upgradeable Fast Ethernet An earlier name for 100Mbps Ethernet. See 100Base-T. (networking) Fast Ethernet - A version of Ethernet developed in the 1990s(?) which can carry 100 Mbps compared with standard Ethernet's 10 Mbps. It requires upgraded network cards and hubs. switching at a per-port price that's under $17. Designed with the intent of lowering the cost of 10/100 switching solutions with Gigabit uplinks, SMC's new TigerSwitch is likely to make Fast Ethernet switching practical for more applications. Packed with advanced features that include Access Control List (ACL See access control list. 1. ACL - Access Control List. 2. ACL - Association for Computational Linguistics. 3. ACL - A Coroutine Language. A Pascal-based implementation of coroutines. ["Coroutines", C.D. ), RADIUS and SSH (Secure SHell) A security protocol for logging into a remote server. SSH provides an encrypted session for transferring files and executing server programs. Also serving as a secure client/server connection for applications such as database access and e-mail, SSH supports a support, as well as IP ToS and CoS, the new TigerSwitches have what today's diverse multimedia networks need. Future software upgrades will enhance the feature set even further with DiffServ, 802.1s multiple spanning tree, and SNMPv3, taking today's robust switch into the future. SMC plans to introduce LEO-based stackable versions in March 2004. "We're a good team because Accton and SMC share the same basic goals in product development," said David Myers, Accton's director of OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and Marketing. "To deliver high-quality, feature-rich products that are easy to use, at an economical price point. Then, back them up with quality support. We're pleased that SMC is first to deploy this LEO-based technology worldwide, and look forward to more LEO-based SMC switch introductions over the next several months." The new SMC TigerSwitch 10/100 L2 24 Port Managed Switch excels in Enterprise workgroup applications. With 24 auto-MDIX 10/100Mbps ports and two optional uplink ports A port on a network hub or switch that is used to connect to other hubs and switches rather than an end station. See MDI port. for optional Gigabit or 100Mbps fiber, it incorporates flexible management tools and optional slide-in modules for Gigabit expansion. Providing high-performance backbone connectivity with an aggregated bandwidth of 8.8Gbps, the SMC6724AL2's advanced features incorporate the best of Layer 2 and 4 switching. Easy to install and manage via SMC's EliteView(TM) management utility, the SMC6724AL2 is remote-upgradeable, making it perfect for today's demanding workgroup applications. "The new SMC6724AL2 represents a big step forward in feature-richness, and at the price point we've been able to hit, it's an incredible value proposition," said Tony Stramandinoli, SMC's chief technical officer. The new TigerSwitch 10/100 L2 Managed Switch SMC6724AL2 and its associated expansion modules and uplinks will be available in early January.
