INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION This manual describes how to install and use SMC’s EZ Switch 10/100. It features 5,8 10/100 Mpbs Auto Negotiation swtich ports, and provides the flexibility to fit into your working space with network environment. The EZ Switch 10/100 can be used to connect with PCs, servers, hubs, bridges, other switches and routers. It can also act as a bridge between 10Mbps and 100Mbps networks segments. This EZ Switch supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps dedicated bandwidths in each port.
INTRODUCTION connections to servers and workstations to be made with straight-through cabling • “At-a-glance” LEDs for port and system status monitoring • Jabber lock-up function automatically stops transmission of abnormal frames to prevent network disruption • Automatic polarity detection and correction • Desktop installation Front Panel LEDs The front panel of the switch provides status LEDs for “at-a-glance” system monitoring.
INTRODUCTION SMC-EZ6505TX SMC-EZ6508TX Rear Panel These EZ Switch 10/100 models feature 5/8 10BASE-T/ 100BASE-TX ports with RJ-45 connectors located on the rear panel of the Switch. Each port contains a built-in wiring crossover (MDI-X) that allows for the use of straight-through twisted-pair cable for connections to devices without built-in crossover ports (i.e., workstations, printers, etc.). The DC power receptacle is also located on the rear panel of the hub.
INSTALLING THE SWITCH INSTALLING THE SWITCH The EZ Switch 10/100 can be placed on a desktop or shelf and stacked with other devices using the provided 4 rubber foot pads Equipment Checklist After unpacking the EZ Switch 10/100, check the contents of the box to be sure you’ve received the following components: • EZ Switch 10/100 SMC-EZ6505TX or SMC-EZ6508TX • Appropriate DC power adapter • Four rubber foot pads • SMC Warranty Registration Card • This User Guide Selecting a Site Be sure to follow
INSTALLING THE SWITCH • There should be adequate space (approximately two inches) on all sides for proper air flow. • Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical interference such as radios, transmitters, etc. • Make sure that a properly grounded power outlet is within 8 feet (2.44 meters) of the hub and is powered from an independent circuit breaker.
