A network switch is used in a wired network to connect devices using Ethernet cables. Switches are the foundation of a business network, facilitating communications from data to voice to video to wireless access. Although its main job is to share the same Internet connection to your connected devices, switches can regulate traffic and send the right data to the right devices. This means your business network becomes more efficient and more secure, scaling as your business grows.
