ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 100 TigerSwitch 100 Overview SMC’s TigerSwitch™ 100 units are intelligent Fast Ethernet switches. There are two TigerSwitch 100 models available. The first, the TigerSwitch 100T (SMC6608T), features 8 fixed 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. The predominance of dual- speed, Auto-Negotiating ports on the SMC6608T make this unit ideally suited for Fast Ethernet migration. The ports on the other TigerSwitch 100 model, the TigerSwitch 100M (SMC6608M), are distributed among two sli

ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 100 Switch Ports 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports These ports are dual-speed RJ-45 ports with built-in wiring crossovers. Each TigerSwitch 100 equipped with 10BASE-T/ 100BASE-TX ports will contain at least one straight-through (daisy-chain) port. This port is used for straight-through cable connections to other devices (i.e., hubs or switches) which have ports with built-in crossovers.
