The fastest among the switching methods for transmitting data through a switch is the cut-through method.
Key Takeaway: Cut through reads the frame's hardware address before starting to forward it. Store and forward buffers and performs a checksum on each frame before forwarding it on. Since there is no error checking with the cut-through method, it is significantly faster though less reliable than the store-and-forward method.
