The Router helps you connect several switches to a certain network and share that network among several computers; Its function is to transfer data between different networks; that is, it will help you to interconnect your networks, protecting the information from possible external threats. The foundation of Routing is the ability to "move" packets through some Internet networks to others.

​

In short, the switch acts as a controller, while the router performs the function of distributing, connecting the business through its different branches and protecting the information from possible security threats.  

​

The combination of both techniques, Switching and Routing, has become absolutely essential in order to guarantee fluid business communication, reduce communication costs for companies and institutions, increase productivity and improve security, as well as customer service. .
