2. INSTALLATION This section describes the functionalities of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch’s components and guides how to install it on the desktop. Basic knowledge of networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before continuing. 2.1 Product Description The PLANET Gigabit Ethernet Switch is 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 16/24 ports respectively, and non-blocking wirespeed performance.
extremely large amounts of data transmission in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers. The Gigabit Ethernet Switch also supports Store-and-Forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary traffic and relieves congestion on critical network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, the Gigabit Ethernet Switch could recognize up to 8K different MAC address and enables filtering and forwarding at full wire speed.
Per 10/100/1000Mbps port LED 1000 10/100 Color Function Green Lights to indicate that the Switch is successfully connecting to the network at 1000Mbps. Blinks to indicate the Switch is receiving or sending data. Off to indicate the Switch is connecting to the network at 10Mbps or 100Mbps. Green Lights to indicate that the Switch is successfully connecting to the network at 100Mbps. Blinks to indicate the Switch is receiving or sending data.
Per SFP Interface LED SFP LNK/ ACT Color Function Green Lights to indicate that the Switch is successfully connecting to the network at 1000Mbps through SFP interface. Blinks to indicate the Switch is receiving or sending data. 2.1.4 Switch Rear Panel Figure 2-4 & 2-5 shows a rear panel of Gigabit Ethernet Switch. Figure 2-4 GSW-1601/GSW-2401 rear panel Figure 2-5 GSW-2416 rear panel Power Notice: 1. The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work till it is powered.
Note This Gigabit Ethernet Switch does not need software configuration. 2.2.1 Desktop Installation To install the Gigabit Ethernet Switch on desktop, simply follow the next steps: Step 1: Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. Step 2: Place the Gigabit Ethernet Switch on desktop near an AC power source. Step 3: Keep enough ventilation space between the Gigabit Ethernet Switch and the surrounding objects.
2.2.2 Rack Mounting To install the Gigabit Ethernet Switch in a 19-inch standard rack, follow the instructions described below. Step 1: Place your Gigabit Ethernet Switch on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned towards your front side. Step 2: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the Switch with supplied screws attached to the package. Figure 2-6 shows how to attach brackets to one side of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
Figure 2-7 Mounting the Gigabit Ethernet Switch in a Rack Step 6: Proceeds with the steps 4 and steps 5 of session 2.2.1 Desktop Installation to connect the network cabling and supply power to your Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
3. Switch Operation 3.1 Address Table The Gigabit Ethernet Switch is implemented with an address table. This address table composed of many entries. Each entry is used to store the address information of some node in network, including MAC address, port no, etc. This information comes from the learning process of Gigabit Ethernet Switch. 3.2 Learning When one packet comes in from any port. The Gigabit Ethernet Switch will record the source address, port no.
an internal buffer, do the complete error checking before transmission. Therefore, no error packets occurrence, it is the best choice when a network needs efficiency and stability. The Gigabit Ethernet Switch scans the destination address from the packet-header, searches the routing table provided for the incoming port and forwards the packet, only if required. The fast forwarding makes the switch attractive for connecting servers directly to the network, thereby increasing throughput and availability.
4. Troubleshooting This chapter contains information to help you solve issues. If the Gigabit Ethernet Switch is not functioning properly, make sure the Ethernet Switch was set up according to instructions in this manual. The per port LED is not lit Solution: Check the cable connection of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch. Performance is bad Solution: Check the speed duplex mode of the partner device.
APPENDIX A NETWORKING CONNECTION A.
A.2 RJ-45 cable Pin Assignments The standard RJ-45 receptacle/connector There are 8 wires on a standard UTP/STP cable and each wire is colorcoded. The following shows the pin allocation and color of straight cable and crossover cable connection: Figure A-1 Straight-Through and Crossover Cable Please make sure your connected cables are with same pin assignment and color as above picture before deploying the cables into your network.
A.3 Install the Mini-GBIC module Please follow these steps to install the Mini-GBIC modules: 1. Power on the Gigabit Ethernet Switch and place it on a flat surface. Install the new Mini-GBIC modules by inserting it into the slots and sliding it in until it stops (See Figure A-2). Press it firmly until you feel the module snap into place. Never force, twist or bend the MiniGBIC modules. The Mini-GBIC module slides in smoothly and the Gigabit Ethernet Switch will automatically detect the new module.
