CHAPTER 1 ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 10/100 Overview SMC’s TigerSwitch™ 10/100 (SMC6724AL2) contains 24 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX (RJ-45) ports plus two slots on the front panel for slide-in modules (100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-X/T). There is also an SNMP-based management agent embedded on the main board. This agent supports both in-band and out-of-band access for managing the switch.
ABOUT THE TIGERSWITCH 10/100 Switch Architecture The switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection. Auto-negotiation is used to select the optimal transmission speed and communication mode for each connection.
DESCRIPTION OF HARDWARE Description of Hardware RJ-45 Ports The switch base unit contains 24 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX RJ-45 ports. All of these ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

CHAPTER 2 NETWORK PLANNING Introduction to Switching A network switch allows simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via non-crossbar switching. This means that it can partition a network more efficiently than bridges or routers. The switch has, therefore, been recognized as one of the most important building blocks for today's networking technology.
NETWORK PLANNING Application Examples The TigerSwitch 10/100 is not only designed to segment your network, but also to provide a wide range of options in setting up network connections. Some typical applications are described below. Collapsed Backbone The TigerSwitch 10/100 is an excellent choice for mixed Ethernet and Fast Ethernet installations where significant growth is expected in the near future.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES Network Aggregation Plan With 26 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 26 distinct collision domains), this switch can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput. In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports on the switch are providing 100 Mbps connectivity for up to 24 segments. In addition, the switch is also connecting servers at 100 Mbps.
NETWORK PLANNING Remote Connection with Fiber Cable Fiber optic technology allows for longer cabling than any other media type. A 100 Mbps multimode fiber (MMF) link can run up to 2 km, and a 100 Mbps single-mode fiber (SMF) link can run as far as 20 km. This allows the switch to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct connectivity for a widespread LAN. The 100BASE-FX (SMF) plug-in module or 1000BASE-ZX GBIC transceiver can be used to interconnect remote network segments.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES Making VLAN Connections VLANs can be based on port groups, or each data frame can be explicitly tagged to identify the VLAN group to which it belongs. When using port-based VLANs, ports can either be assigned to one specific group or to all groups. Port-based VLANs are suitable for small networks. A single switch can be easily configured to support several VLAN groups for various organizational entities (such as Finance and Marketing).
NETWORK PLANNING Application Notes 1. Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. 2. Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually required to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade overall performance for the segment attached to the hub. 3.
CHAPTER 3 INSTALLING THE SWITCH Selecting a Site TigerSwitch 10/100 units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location. ◆ The site should: • be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet.
INSTALLING THE SWITCH Ethernet Cabling To ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network, make sure that the current cables are suitable for 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your network: • Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables with RJ-45 connectors; Category 3 or better for 10BASE-T and Category 5 or better for 100BASE-TX.
EQUIPMENT CHECKLIST Equipment Checklist After unpacking the TigerSwitch 10/100, check the contents to be sure you have received all the components. Then, before beginning the installation, be sure you have all other necessary installation equipment.
INSTALLING THE SWITCH Mounting A TigerSwitch 10/100 unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site follow. Installing Optional Modules: Before mounting the switch, be sure you install any optional modules. If you have purchased optional slide-in 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-FX or GBIC media expansion module, install these modules now, following the instructions in “Installing an Optional Module into the Switch” on page 3-7.

MOUNTING Installing an Optional Module into the Switch PW R Di ag M1 M2 100BA SE-FX Single mode Modul e TX RX Figure 3-5. Installing an Optional Module Caution: DO NOT install slide-in modules with the switch powered on. Be sure you power off the switch before installing any module. To install an optional module into the switch, do the following: 1. Disconnect power to the switch. 2.
INSTALLING THE SWITCH Connecting to a Power Source To connect a device to a power source: 1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the receptacle located at the back of the device. 100-240V~ 50-60Hz 2A Figure 3-6. Power Receptacle 2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin socket. Note: For International use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must use a line cord set that has been approved for the receptacle type in your country. 3.
CONNECTING TO THE CONSOLE PORT Connecting to the Console Port The DB-9 serial port on the switch’s front panel is used to connect to the switch for out-of-band console configuration. The on-board menu-driven configuration program can be accessed from a terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation program. The pin assignments used to connect to the serial port are provided in the following tables. 1 6 5 9 Figure 3-7. Serial Port (DB-9 DTE) Pin-Out Wiring Map for Serial Cable Table 3-1.
INSTALLING THE SWITCH 3-10
CHAPTER 4 MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS Connecting Network Devices The TigerSwitch 10/100 may be connected to 10 or 100 Mbps network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to other switches and hubs. It may also be connected to remote devices using the optional fiber optic modules. Twisted-Pair Devices Each device requires a shielded or unshielded twisted-pair (STP or UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS have an MDI port, so that they can connect to another switch’s/hub’s MDI-X port using straight-through cable. To connect between two switches/hubs that only have fixed MDI-X ports, the wiring crossover must be implemented in the cable - known as a crossover cable. The RJ-45 ports on the switch base unit support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, which means that they automatically detect the wiring in the link and configure as MDI or MDI-X accordingly.
TWISTED-PAIR DEVICES is connected to the wiring closet (see “Wiring Closet Connections” on page 4-3 on the next page). Otherwise, attach the other end to an available port on the switch. 3. Make sure each twisted pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328 ft) in length. Note: When connected to a shared collision domain (such as a hub with multiple workstations), switch ports must be set to half-duplex mode and back pressure flow control disabled. 4.
MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS 3. Label the cables to simplify future troubleshooting.

Wiring Closet Connections Fiber Optic Devices An optional slide-in 100BASE-FX module can be used for backbone and long distance connections. Each multimode fiber optic port requires 50/125 or 62.
FIBER OPTIC DEVICES Warning: This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a transmit port when it is powered on. 1. Remove and keep the SC port’s rubber cover. When not connected to a fiber cable, the rubber cover should be replaced to protect the optics. 2. Check that the fiber terminators are clean.
MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS 4. As a connection is made, check the Activity LED on the switch’s front panel for the corresponding module to be sure that the connection is valid. Note: If you use the optional SC-ST Converter, be sure to connect the converter’s Tx (Rx) port to the Rx (Tx) port on the other device. The 100BASE-FX fiber optic ports operate only at 100 Mbps, full duplex. You can run a single-mode fiber link up to 20 kilometers (12.43 miles).
CONNECTIVITY RULES 1000BASE-T is a simple test of the cable installation to be sure that it complies with the IEEE 802.3ab standards. 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Collision Domain Maximum Cable Distance for 1000BASE-T Type Connector Maximum Cable Length Cat. 5, 5e, or 6 100-ohm UTP RJ-45 100 m (328 ft) 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Collision Domain Maximum 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Cable Distance Type Cable Type Max.
MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS Cable Labeling and Connection Records When planning a network installation, it is essential to label the opposing ends of cables and to record where each cable is connected. Doing so will enable you to easily locate inter-connected devices, isolate faults and change your topology without need for unnecessary time consumption. To best manage the physical implementations of your network, follow these guidelines: 4-8 • Clearly label the opposing ends of each cable.
APPENDIX A TROUBLESHOOTING Diagnosing Switch Indicators Troubleshooting Chart Symptom Action Power LED is Off • Internal power supply has failed or is disconnected. • Check connections between the switch, the power cord, the wall outlet. • Contact SMC Technical Support. • Verify that the switch and attached device are powered on. Be sure the cable is plugged into both the switch and corresponding device. Verify that the proper cable type is used and its length does not exceed specified limits.
TROUBLESHOOTING Power and Cooling Problems If the power indicator does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem with the power outlet, power cord, or internal power supply. However, if the unit powers off after running for a while, check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at the power outlet, and verify that the fans on the unit are unobstructed and running prior to shutdown.

CABLES Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments Caution: DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards. For 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other, white with green stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
TWISTED-PAIR CABLE AND PIN ASSIGNMENTS The RJ-45 ports on the switch base unit support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the cable. When using any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable..
CABLES Crossover Wiring If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and either both ports are labeled with an “X” (MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an “X” (MDI), a crossover must be implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.
