Web Smart Business Switches
Buffalo’s Web Smart Giga Switch
Buffalo Technology’s new Smart Giga Business Switches (BSL-WS series) for small and medium businesses bring Japanese know-how to Layer 2 Giga Switches and offer flexible and scalable managed Business Switch solutions that enable better-than-ever network monitoring and configuring capabilities via web interface.
And, with a Buffalo Business Switch in place, network administrators can rest assured with Buffalo’s Loop Guard warning system. A loop occurs if there is more than one path between two endpoints – possible causes are multiple connections between two network switches, or, two ports on the same switch connected to each other. With Buffalo’s new Business Switches the offending port from which the loop originates is immediately shut down and the switch gives both a buzzer and LED alert. In the past administrators might spend a considerable amount of time detecting and locating such a problem, but with Buffalo’s new business switches detection and location are just a blinking light and buzzing buzz away.
