Each port suppor ts either 10/100/1000 Mbps data rate. Flow controls, back pressure in half-duplex mode and PAUSE frame in full-duplex mode are employed to solve the HOL (Head of Line) blocking. This Layer 2 Switch integrates four half/full duplex mode 1000 BASE Gigabit Ethernet MACs, wire speed switching engines, MAC address based address parsing algorithms and packet buffer memory. 4-port Layer 2 10/100/1000Mbps Unmanaged Switched Ethernet Controller AT79C1020 Summary Figure 1.
