Desktop Rumbles Through to Small Office Desktops

"A leader in networking silicon solutions, Texas Instruments (TI) will offer an affordable switching alternative for the small office market with the new ThunderSWITCH™ Desktop 8/2. TI has shipped more than one million ports to date, primarily in the desktop market. The Desktop 8/2 will now offer the same robust features and benefits to the small office environment."

"By significantly lowering the per-port-price of desktop switching, Texas Instruments' ThunderSWITCH 8/2 will expedite the migration from shared to switched networks. The ThunderSWITCH 8/2 will also enable OEMs to enter the market and quickly provide product to the channel."
