So, we have to install Capsa on the Hub to capture the data in the network. In short, a switch is 'more better.'Īcutally, this is a frequently asked problem in Capsa customers that why they have to deploy Capsa on hub Only? According to the info above, we can see that Switch transmit the data selectively(by the source of MAC address), while Hub is send the data to every ports randomly. And like a crossover cable between two PCs, PC's on an Ethernet switch do not share the transmission media, do not experience collisions or have to listen for them, can operate in a full-duplex mode, have bandwidth as high as 200 Mbps, 100 Mbps each way, and do not share this bandwidth with other PCs on the switch. Multiple connections like this can occur simultaneously. High-speed electronics in the switch automatically connect the end of one cable (source port) from a sending computer to the end of another cable (destination port) going to the receiving computer on a per packet basis. Picture a switch as making multiple temporary crossover cable connections between pairs of computers (the cables are actually straight-thru cables the crossover function is done inside the switch). When the switch receives a packet, it reads the destination address from the header information in the packet, establishes a temporary connection between the source and destination ports, sends the packet on its way, and then terminates the connection. It accomplishes this by maintaining a table of each destination address and its port.

The result is a crossover cable doesn't have delays caused by collisions, data can be sent in both directions simultaneously, the maximum available bandwidth is 200 Mbps, 100 Mbps each way, and there are no other PC's with which the bandwidth must be shared.Īn Ethernet switch automatically divides the network into multiple segments, acts as a high-speed, selective bridge between the segments, and supports simultaneous connections of multiple pairs of computers which don't compete with other pairs of computers for network bandwidth.

Most 100BASE-TX Ethernet Adapters can detect when listening for collisions is not required with a process known as auto-negotiation and will operate in a full duplex mode when it is permitted.

It hardwires the Ethernet transmitter on one computer to the receiver on the other. A crossover cable doesn't have a collision problem. Two computers can be connected directly together in an Ethernet with a crossover cable. The affect on a small, 100 Mbps (million bits per scond), 5-port network is not as significant. In a 10 Mhz 10Base-T network the affect is to slow the network to nearly a crawl. The result is when a person using a computer on a hub downloads a large file or group of files from another computer the network becomes congested.

Because they have to operate at half duplex (data flows one way at a time) and a hub retransmits data from one PC to all of the PCs, the maximum bandwidth is 100 Mhz and that bandwidth is shared by all of the PC's connected to the hub. If the adapters didn't have to listen with their receivers for collisions they would be able to send data at the same time they are receiving it (full duplex). Each Ethernet Adapter has both a receiver and a transmitter. The process is prescribed in the Ethernet Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) protocol. When that happens all of the PCs have to go though a routine to resolve the conflict. If two or more PCs on the network try to send packets at the same time a collision is said to occur. When a hub receives a packet (chunk) of data (a frame in Ethernet lingo) at one of its ports from a PC on the network, it transmits (repeats) the packet to all of its ports and, thus, to all of the other PCs on the network. Although hubs and switches both glue the PCs in a network together, a switch is more expensive and a network built with switches is generally considered faster than one built with hubs.
