cabling problems, whether the port is connected to a server,
PC, another switch or hub.
Front panel LEDs. Provides immediate notification of network
use—port speed/activity—without requiring special technical
knowledge.
Operating system independence. Supports maximum
integration of different operating systems within a network—
no extra configuration of the network is required.
Plug-and-Play convenience. For hassle-free installation and
simple set-up, no complicated configuration is required.

OVERVIEW
3Com® OfficeConnect® Fast Ethernet Switches are designed for small offices requiring high
network performance to exchange large data files and images and access real-time information.
These reliable and dependable switches automatically find the fastest connection speed; all that is
needed is to connect the power and Ethernet cables, as there is no software to configure. Easy to set
up, these switches feature a fan-less design which delivers silent operation, and are backed by an
outstanding three-year limited warranty. Advanced hardware replacement is also provided.
With a choice of five, eight or sixteen ports you can easily expand your network by adding more
computers or devices with speeds up to 200 Mbps per port in full-duplex mode. As part of our
GreenConnect initiative, this switch has been designed to have a very small form-factor, reducing
the environmental impact from this product.
