Advantages of Layer 1 vs. Layer 2/3 Switches

  • Less complex, more reliable. Easier to install.
  • No misconfigured network protocols.
  • No firmware or software upgrades to manage.
  • Independent of data rates, formats, and protocols, so they're future-proof investments.
  • Air-gap isolation means inherently secure network connections, especially important in military, government, and other high-security applications.
  • System continues to pass data even when powered off, making it a “green” solution.
  • Highest performance: CAT6 supports 10GbE, or use fiber at the speed of light.
