A BOUT T HIS G UIDE Congratulations on your purchase of the DSS-5+ 5-port 10/100Mbps Dual Speed Ethernet Switch. This device integrates 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highly flexible desktop package. Purpose This manual discusses how to install your DSS-5+ 5-port 10/100Mbps Dual Speed Ethernet Switch. Terms/Usage In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter upper case) refers to your DSS-5+, and ”switch” (first letter lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches.
INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast 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 highspeed LAN technologies have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times.
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. It transmits packets among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments. Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network bandwidth available to users on a local area network. A switch divides a local area network into multiple, separate segments.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation of network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies. Today switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems. Features The DSS-5+ was designed for easy installation and high performance in an environment where network traffic and the number of users increases continuously. Designed with the small and medium network in mind, the DSS-5+ comes in a s mall and compact size.
allocated for each port, while controlling the data flow between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee against all possible packet loss. The Switch is an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch that offers solutions in accelerating small Ethernet workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are: Uplink/ MDI-II (media dependent interface) port for uplink to another switch, hub or repeater. Store and forward switching scheme capability.
U NPACKING AND S ETUP This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for DSS-5+. Unpacking Open the shipping cartons of the Switch and carefully unpacks its contents. The carton should contain the following items: One DSS-5+ 5-port 10/100Mbps Dual Speed Ethernet Switch One external power adapter This User’s Guide If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.
IDENTIFYING E XTERNAL C OMPONENTS This section identifies all the major external components of the DSS-5+. Both the front and rear panels are shown followed by a description of each panel feature. The indicator panel is described in detail in the next chapter. Front Panel The figure below shows the front and rear panels of the DSS5+ .

it on. MDI-X Jacks: Use these jacks to connect stations to the hub. These are MDI-X (Medium-Dependent Interface, Cross-wired) jacks, which mean, you can use ordinary straight-through twisted-pair cables to connect user machines and servers to the switch through them. If you need to connect another device with an MDI-X jack, such as another switch or an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hub, you should use a crossover cable, or make the connection using the MDI-II jack (described below). Please see www.dlink.
green as Fast Ethernet data is transmitted or received. The indicator lights amber when the port is connected to a 10Mbps Ethernet station or other network device. The indicator blinks amber as Ethernet data is transmitted or received.
C ONNECTING T HE S WITCH This chapter describes how to connect the DSS-5+ to your Fast Ethernet network. PC to Switch A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3,4, or5 UTP/STP straight -through cable. For 100Mbps operation Category 5 must be used. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10Mb Ethernet or 100Mb Fast Ethernet NIC) should be connected to any of the 5 ports (1x - 5x) for the DSS-5+. The LED indicators for PC connection are dependent on the LAN card capabilities.
Hub to Switch A hub (10 or 100BASE-TX) can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP straight cable. For 100Mbps operation a Category 5 cable must be used. The connection is accomplished from the hub uplink (MDI-II) port to any of the Switch (MDI-X) ports. A. 10BASE-T Hub For a 10BASE-T hub, the Switch LED indicators should light up as follows: “Full-Duplex/Collision” indicator is OFF initially (it will blink as collisions occur).
B. Using crossover cable When using crossover cable, the connection can be made from any ports of the Switch to any port of the Hub. Switch to Switch (other devices) The Switch can be connected to another switch or other devices (routers, bridges, etc.) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP straight or crossover cable. A Category 5 cable must be used for 100Mbps operation. A.
Port Speed & Duplex Mode After plugging the selected cable to a specific port, the system uses auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new twisted-pair connection: If the attached device does not support autonegotiation or has auto-negotiation disabled, an autosensing process is initiated to select the speed and set the duplex mode to half-duplex.
