Chapter 2: Overview 2. Overview 2.1 Introduction The Gigabit SFP Managed Switch Eco provides a reliable infrastructure for your small business or enterprise network. The switch’s intelligent features enable you to improve the availability of your critical business applications, protect your sensitive information, and optimize your network bandwidth to deliver information and applications more effectively. Plus, the switch is easy to set up and use.
Chapter 2: Overview Figure 2-2. Side panel of the switch (fan location). 2.4 Switch Architecture The switch transports multiple packets at wire-speed and low latency on all ports simultaneously. It operates in full-duplex mode on all ports to effectively double the bandwidth of each connection. This switch uses store-and-forward technology to ensure maximum data integrity. With this technology, the entire packet must be received into a buffer and checked for validity before being forwarded.
Chapter 3: Hardware Description 3. Hardware Description 3.1 1000BASE-T Ports The switch has 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports. All RJ-45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, auto-negotiation, and IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch automatically selects the optimum data rate and transmission. 3.2 SFP Transceiver Slots The switch supports Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots on ports 1 to 24.
Chapter 3: Hardware Description Figure 3-2. System Status LEDs on the front panel. Table 3-2. System Status LEDs LED Color Status PWR AC Green Lights when power is on. PWR DC Green Lights when power is on. SYS Green/ Amber Blinks when system is booting. Lights when system is coming up. ALARM Red Normally off; only system error will turn the light on. 3.4 Power Supply Sockets There are dual power inputs on the front panel of the switch for power redundancy.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch 4. Installing the Switch 4.1 Selecting a Site NOTE: The switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack (via the included rackmount kit). Follow the guidelines below when choosing a location. The site should: • Be located at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet. • Be able to maintain its temperature within 32 to 140° F (0 to 60° C) and its humidity within 10% to 90%, non-condensing.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch Figure 4-2. SFP transceiver. 4.3 Equipment Checklist After unpacking this switch, please check the contents to be sure you have received all the components (listed below and in Section 2.2). Then, before beginning the installation, be sure you have all other necessary installation equipment.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch To rackmount Devices: (Optional) Step 1. Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the mounting accessory. Figure 4-3. Attaching the brackets. Step 2. Mount the device in the rack (via the rackmount kit), using four rackmounting screws (not provided). Be sure to secure the lower rackmounting screws first to prevent the brackets from bending from the weight of the switch. Figure 4-3. Installing the switch in a rack. 724-746-5500 | blackbox.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch Step 3. If installing a single switch only, go to Section 4.6 or 4.7 in this manual. Step 4. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order. 4.4.2 Desktop or Shelf Mounting Step 1. Attach the four adhesive rubber feet to the bottom of the first switch. Figure 4-5. Attaching the adhesive rubber feet. Step 2.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch NOTES (Continued): The SFP ports operate only at full duplex. Half-duplex operation is not supported. Ensure the network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove an SFP module. CAUTION: Use only supported SFP modules with your switch (see Table 4-1). Figure 4-6. Inserting an SFP transceiver into a slot. To install an SFP transceiver, do the following: Step 1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP transceiver type. Step 2.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch cable is correctly plugged in. 4.7 Connecting to a DC Power Source You can plug or remove a DC power cable through the DC terminal block from an external 48-VDC power source. Figure 4-6. Inserting the DC power cable into the DC terminal block to power on this switch. Step 1. Insert the DC cable plug directly into the DC terminal block located at the front of the switch. Step 2. Plug the other end of the cable into an external DC power source. Step 3.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch powered on. WARNING: W hen selecting a fiber SFP device, make sure that it can function at a temperature that is not less than the recommended maximum operational temperature of the product. You must also use an approved Laser SFP transceiver. Step 1. Remove and keep the LC port’s rubber plug. When not connected to a fiber cable, replace the rubber plug to protect the optics. Step 2. Check that the fiber terminators are clean.
Chapter 4: Installing the Switch 4.11 1000BASE-T Cable Requirements All Category 5 UTP cables that are used for 100BASE-TX connections should also work for 1000BASE-T, providing that all four wire pairs are connected. However, we recommend that for all critical connections, or any new cable installations, you use Category 5e or Category 6 cable. The Category 5e and 6 specifications include test parameters that are only recommendations for Category 5.
