A BOUT T HIS G UIDE Congratulations on your purchase of the Management/Smart Gigabit & Fast Ethernet Switch (2×1000BASE plus 24×10/100BASE ports). In this guide, you will find about the following four models: 1. 2. 2×1000BASE-T plus 24×10/100BASE-TX Gigabit Switch 2×1000BASE-SX plus 24×10/100BASE-TX Gigabit Switch These four are designed to deliver full scalability of 10/100/1000Mbps, providing a simple solution to today’s complicated networking environment.
I NTRODUCTION This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet switching technology. Fast Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times.
increase in theoretical throughput over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet. Since it is compatible with all 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a straightforward upgrade without wasting a company’s existing investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel.
Switching Technology Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments. Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity available to users on a local area network.
Features 24×10/100Mbps Auto-negotiation Ethernet ports and 2×10/100/1000Mbps Auto-negotiation Copper Gigabit Ethernet ports or 2×1000BASE-SX Fiber Gigabit Ethernet ports Auto MDI-X for all TX ports Full/half duplex transfer mode for each port Wire speed reception and transmission Store-and-Forward switching method Integrated address Look-Up Engine, supports 32K MAC addresses Supports 2Mbytes RAM for data buffering Supports port base VLAN / Trunking Supports IEEE 802.
U NPACKING AND I NSTALLATION This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the Switch. To avoid causing any damage to the Switch, we recommend that you read this chapter carefully before starting installation. Unpacking Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack the items inside.
Installation The site where you place the Switch may greatly affect its performance. When installing, take the following into your consideration: Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight. Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the Switch for ventilation. Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight, or in an EIA standard-size equipment rack.
Rack Mounting The Switch can be mounted in an EIA standard-size, 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipments. Attach the mounting brackets to both sides of the Switch (one at each side), and secure them with the provided screws. Then, use screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the Switch in the rack.
I DENTIFYING E XTERNAL C OMPONENTS This chapter identifies all the major external components of the Switch. Both the front and rear panels are shown below, with a description of each panel features.

PORT 25 & PORT 26 1000BASE-T Twisted Pair Ports (RJ-45) or 1000BASE-SX Fiber-Optic Ports (SC) - These two RJ-45 ports are auto MDI-X ports: The Switch is equipped with two Gigabit twisted pair ports, the ports will auto negotiate 10/100/1000Mbps. - The Switch is equipped with two Gigabit fiber-optic ports, the SC ports can connect to fiber networks on the other end with the same connector.
U NDERSTANDING LED I NDICATORS The front panel LEDs provide instant status feedback, and, helps monitor and troubleshoot when needed. PWR Power Indicator (green) On : When the green light is on, the Switch is receiving power. Off : Power cut off or improper connection. FAN FAULT Fan Indicator (Amber) On : Lights amber when the fan fails to work. Off : The fan is running normally. CONSOLE Console Indicator (green) On : Lights green when the console is logged in.
P OW E R FAN FAULT CONSOLE MGM Ports 1~24 Status LEDs LINK/ACT On (Green) Link/Activity (green; amber) : When the green light is on, the respective port is connected to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet network. Blinking : When the green light is blinking, the port is transmitting (Green) or receiving data on the 100Mbps network. On : When the amber light is on, the respective port is (Amber) connected to a 10Mbps Ethernet network.
Port 25 & Port 26 Status LEDs 1000BASE-T 1000M LINK/ACT On Link/Activity (green) : When the green light is on, the respective port is connected to a Gigabit Ethernet network.

Off : No link activity. 100M LINK/ACT On Link/Activity (green) : When the green light is on, the respective port is connected to a Fast Ethernet network.
FDX/COL On Collision/Full Duplex (green) : When the green light is on, the respective port is in full duplex (FDX) mode. Blinking : Collision occurs. Off : When the green light is off, the respective port is in half duplex mode. 1000BASE-SX LINK/ACT On Link/Activity (green) : When the green light is on, the respective port is connected to a Gigabit Ethernet network. Blinking : When the green light is blinking, the port is transmitting or receiving data on the 1000Mbps network.
C ONNECTING T HE S WITCH Referring to the cable specification below, use appropriate cables that meet your speed and cabling requirements when connecting the Switch to your network. The LAN card capabilities play an important role. If any status LED indicator is not shining after making a proper connection, check the PC LAN card, the cable, the Switch conditions and connections. Connecting Step-by-Step Step 1: First, ensure the power of the switch and end devices is turned off.
