Cost-effective management switch

HomePNA Manage-ment Switch PLS-8880 is dedicated for service providers who want to provide cost-effective
broadband multi-media services.

Robustness is the aim for the design due to the nature of
HomePNA technology in the noisy environment of application. Even in the
environment with cross-talk noise, robust design will enable the switch to
survive with acceptable throughput. The switch is also a manageable, scalable,
and upgradeable solution that helps service providers to provide broadband
multimedia services to the public at relatively low investment.

PLS-8880 has 14 128Mbps HomePNA Ports, two Gigabit Ethernet
ports, and console ports. PLS-8880 provides the capability of network management
via the Web.
