I'm not a pro but this is the first I've heard the term "loop end". I know that managed switches can use Spanning Tree Protocol and the basic purpose of that is to prevent network overload due to loops. It can also be used to provide redundant/backup links (which would otherwise create a loop).

I guess some unmanaged switches have basic loop prevention but don't go as far as supporting full STP?
