- 2.5G uplink port can take full advantage of network speed.It is very useful as a network hub.when you need to enable faster simultaneous file access to a server for two or three users without them contending for access (e.g. hook the 2.5Gbps port to a 2.5Gbps port on the server, hook one of the 1Gbps ports to your cable modem/router for internet access, and then use the other three ports for connection to the PC themselves or possibly another switch)
- No need to upgrade to Cat6 cabling, instantly upgrade to 2.5 Gbps performance, reducing cabling cost and hassle. Support Cat5E,Cat6,Cat6A and above cabling. The Multi-Gigabit RJ45 ports not only provide more speed options for your network, but it can increase your home total networking speed from the current 1Gbps to 2.5Gbps without an additional cabling fee.2.5G uplink port is backwards compatible with 10/100/1000Mbps devices and supoort IEEE 802.3bz (2.5G).
