A network switch is used to interconnect devices in a local area network (LAN). It receives and forwards data between devices, ensuring that packets reach the correct destination. Switches typically support multiple Ethernet ports and can operate at various speeds, ranging from Gigabit Ethernet to 10-Gigabit Ethernet. Managed switches provide advanced features like VLAN support, QoS for traffic prioritization, and network monitoring, while unmanaged switches are simpler, plug-and-play devices. Some switches support Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing them to power connected devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, or access points directly through the Ethernet cable.
