Access Switches

The purpose of the access layer is to allow end users to connect to the network, so access layer switches have low cost and high port density. The access switch is the most common switch. It directly contacts the external network and is most widely used, especially in general offices, small computer rooms, and business departments with more centralized business acceptance, multimedia production centers, and website management centers. In terms of transmission speed, most modern access switches provide multiple ports with 10M / 100M / 1000M adaptive capabilities.
