TORRANCE, CA - December 10, 1997 — Always striving for constant innovation in our line of Fast Ethernet Hubs, TRENDnet is introducing the TE100-S28 and TE100-S88 Switching Hubs. These new switching hubs, both which have eight and ten ports provide our customers with current Fast Ethernet switching technology.

As companies expand and workloads increase, the demand for efficient networking solutions becomes urgent. Growing companies can’t afford to rely solely on the 10Mbps switching hub but instead need a switch that can also receive information at 100Mbps.TRENDnet offers two easy options for companies to expand their network without having to replace all of their hardware. Both the TE100-S28 switching hub and the TE100-S88 provide a convenient solution by accommodating a 10/100Mbps environment.

The TE100-S28 is an excellent example of this versatility by providing eight 10Mbps twisted pair ports and two 100Mbps twisted pair ports. The switching hub also provides a store and forward passing scheme that helps eliminate bottlenecks.

Similarly, the TE100-S88 is designed with eight auto sensing 10/100Mbps ports. Through it’s switching technology, the hub provides eight independent segments for 10Mbps and 100Mbps. If network traffic needs to go from one segment to another, the switch automatically forwards it without interfering any other segments. The TE100-S88 provides a smooth transition for changing from a 10Base-T technology to a 100Mbps environment.

Both Switches comply with IEEE 802.3 10Base-T and IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX standards and are cost effective networking solutions that allow a 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet environment to run smoothly.
