Improved performance.

The switching ASICs used in these new products offer new capabilities

such as increased network buffers, the ability to process/forward/filter packets

based on more L2 address information such as IP addresses, UDP or TCP ports, and a non-blocking

architecture.

and non-blocking architecture, in addition to more powerful CPUs for control plane and management

operations.

Plug and Play Installation.

The new generation of DeltaV Smart Switches feature a

DeltaV-compatible setup that installs out of the box into a compatible DeltaV network.

They require no user configuration to fully support DeltaV network communications.

NDCC ensures that the configuration of all Smart Switches on the network remains consistent,

so you never have to worry about misconfigurations affecting network performance.

Plug and Play requires that any existing switch or network device be configured for 100/1000 full-duplex

communication or auto-negotiation.
