What does the throughput of the switch mean? In view of this problem, this article introduces the corresponding analysis and answers in detail, hoping to help more partners who want to solve this problem to find a more simple and feasible way.

What is throughput?

Throughput (also known as overall packet forwarding rate) refers to the amount of data successfully transmitted by a network, device, port, or other facility in a unit of time (measured in bits, bytes, etc.). In other words, throughput is the maximum big data rate at which a device can receive and forward without frame loss.

Throughput is a limit indicator, that is, when the network device is fully matched on all ports and operates at the highest line speed of the port. The throughput of a switch is equal to the sum of the two-way (duplex) packet forwarding rates of all ports on the switch.

The size of the throughput is mainly determined by the internal and external network port hardware of the network equipment, and the efficiency of the program algorithm, especially the program algorithm. For devices such as the need for a large number of operations, the low efficiency of the algorithm will greatly reduce the traffic.

The answer to the question about the throughput of the switch is shared here. I hope the above content can be of some help to you. If you still have a lot of doubts to be solved, you can follow the industry information channel for more related knowledge.
