Ethernet Switches

An Ethernet switch divides networks into multiple segments by maintaining a table of each destination address and its port. After receiving a packet, it sends the packet to the correct destination address for each Ethernet switch.

Ethernet switches are used to interconnect various Ethernet devices. An Ethernet switch divides networks into multiple segments by maintaining a table of each destination address and its port. After an Ethernet switch receives a packet, it sends the packet to the correct destination address. This maximizes network utilization for all devices connected to the Ethernet Switches.

Basic Ethernet switches process and routes data at the data link layer (layer 2) of the OSI model. Advanced Ethernet switches that additionally process data at the network layer (layer 3) and above.

Industry Examples of Ethernet Switches

Ethernet switches are frequently broken down as either “managed” or “unmanaged.” Because a managed switch monitors a user’s network and offers more features, it is more expensive. To this end, advanced switches often include QoS critical features such as (Quality of Service), VLAN, Port Mirroring and IGMP Snooping.

Most Ethernet switches are designed to work over fiber optic or twisted pair cable mediums.
