  2. Ethernet flow control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_flow_control

    A sending station (computer or network switch) may be transmitting data faster than the other end of the link can accept it. Using flow control, the receiving station can signal the sender requesting suspension of transmissions until the receiver catches up. Flow control on Ethernet can be implemented at the data link layer.

  3. Network switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switch

    Switches manage the flow of data across a network by transmitting a received network packet only to the one or more devices for which the packet is intended. Each networked device connected to a switch can be identified by its network address, allowing the switch to direct the flow of traffic maximizing the security and efficiency of the network.

  4. Wormhole switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormhole_switching

    It is a subset of flow control methods called flit-buffer flow control. [1]: Chapter 13.2.1 Switching is a more appropriate term than routing, as "routing" defines the route or path taken to reach the destination. [2] [3] The wormhole technique does not dictate the route to the destination but decides when the packet moves forward from a router.

  5. Autonegotiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonegotiation

    Autonegotiation is a signaling mechanism and procedure used by Ethernet over twisted pair by which two connected devices choose common transmission parameters, such as speed, duplex mode, and flow control. In this process, the connected devices first share their capabilities regarding these parameters and then choose the highest-performance ...

  6. Flow control (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_(data)

    In data communications, flow control is the process of managing the rate of data transmission between two nodes to prevent a fast sender from overwhelming a slow receiver. Flow control should be distinguished from congestion control , which is used for controlling the flow of data when congestion has actually occurred. [ 1 ]

  7. Switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch

    A switch may be directly manipulated by a human as a control signal to a system, such as a computer keyboard button, or to control power flow in a circuit, such as a light switch. Automatically operated switches can be used to control the motions of machines, for example, to indicate that a garage door has reached its full open position or that ...

  8. Miniature snap-action switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniature_snap-action_switch

    Microswitches may be directly operated by a mechanism, or maybe packaged as part of a pressure, flow, or temperature switch, operated by a sensing mechanism such as a Bourdon tube. In these latter applications, the repeatability of the actuator position when switching happens is essential for long-term accuracy.

  9. Power over Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_over_Ethernet

    A mini network switch installed in distant rooms, to support a small cluster of Ethernet ports from one uplink cable. PoE power is fed into the PD (or PoE in) port. These switches may in turn power remote PoE devices using PoE pass through. Intercom and public address systems and hallway speaker amplifiers
