Network switches are essential components of computer networks that connect several devices to one another inside a local area network (LAN). They function at the data connection layer of the OSI model, enabling effective data flow between connected devices. Switches take in incoming data packets and examine the MAC addresses of the destinations to decide which path should be used to forward the packets. By doing so, they may establish specialized communication channels and avoid network sluggishness. Depending on the switch, several network speeds, such as Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or 10 Gigabit Ethernet, may be supported. They provide superior performance, security, and scalability compared to hubs or repeaters.
