The Ether-FSH2400RS is a high performance 24-port port fast Ethernet switch with remote management capability.  It features an array of impressive management functions at the similar price level as an unmanaged switch

Windows Remote Management software
Conventionally, configuring a switch's smart management will require users to attach the computer (serial or printer port) directly to the switch's console port.  The Ether-FSH2400RS doesn't need a serial or print port because it is equipped with WinSmart In-band management. It uses the unique RRCP protocol that enables the included Windows utility to manage the switch inside the LAN through the Ethernet interface. However; since it does not use IP protocol, it cannot be managed remotely from the Internet.  The included Windows management software provides a very simple point-and-click interface to set all the functions.  Users can even backup settings to be restored in the future.  Best of all, the management utility can configure several switches at the same time. 

Powerful Management Features
The Ether-FSH2400RS is equipped with many practical management functions. 

• Per-port bandwidth control allow limiting the outgoing and incoming bandwidth separately for each port . 
• Central Switch management:  Configure several switches at the same time. 
• 802.1Q tag VLAN enables VLAN assignment across different switches.  The switch even provide controls to let single-cast, multi-cast, or broadcast traffic to pass between VLANs. (please note that the switch support VLAN tag reading only, it does not support PVID or tag writing.) 
• Quality of Service for multimedia applications:  the 802.1p compliance provide priority traffic management based on port, vlan-tag, or TCP/IP TOS information. 
• Link aggregation increase the uplink speed by allowing up to 7 trunk groups in 2 or 4 ports. 
• IGMP Snooping for IP multicast group management 
• Broadcast Storm control prevent the broadcast traffic from overflowing the network. 
• Loop detection alert the user when there is a loop formed inside the network on the front panel LED.  The management software's diagnostic function even report which port the loop occurs. 
• Port setting setting port speed and duplex mode, flow control 

Whether your current network requires management functions or not , the Ether-FSH2400RS provide those management functions without any extra cost for future needs.   If you are looking for a reliable, powerful, and affordable 24-port 10/100Mbps switch, the Ether-FSH2400RS is your choice.

*Note:  Comparing to Ether-FSH2400R, the Ether-FSH2400RS save configuration settings inside the switch and provide management password protection.  We strongly recommend choosing this model for Office and S.I. environment. 

*Note2: The Windows remote management allow configuration of several switches using the same utility on the Ethernet network (but not over Internet)
