NETernity™ RM945FP-12

NETernity™ RM945FP-12 is a fully integrated 12-port Ethernet switch with front panel I/O and RJ-45 connectors, designed to support the low-cost requirements of unmanaged switch applications and converging networks. The QoS technology allows low cost unmanaged switches to carry voice and data traffic without having to compromise the quality of its voice traffic by using the packet prioritization scheme. Packets are prioritized based upon their Layer 2 VLAN priority tag or the Layer 3 Type-Of-Service/ Differentiated Services (TOS/DS) field. This priority can be defined as transmit and/or drop priority. Customers can change the factory default port setting. The RM945FP-12 has a parallel port which can connect to a PC parallel port. The tool provided runs under Windows 98.
