Chapter 1: About the TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 Overview SMC’s TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 SMC8124PL2 is an intelligent Layer 2 PoE switch with 24 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, two of which are combination ports* that are shared with two SFP transceiver slots (see Figure 1-1, Ports 23-24). The switch includes an SNMP-based management agent embedded on the main board, which supports both in-band and out-of-band management access.
1 About the TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 a buffer and checked for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being propagated throughout the network. Power-over-Ethernet Capability The switch’s 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports support the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard that enables DC power to be supplied to attached devices using wires in the connecting Ethernet cable. Any 802.
Description of Hardware 1 Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically†. SFP Slots The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots are shared with two of the RJ-45 ports (ports 23-24). In its default configuration, if an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link on its port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used.

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.
2 Network Planning workstations, 100 Mbps full-duplex connections to power users, and 1 Gbps full-duplex connections to servers. In addition, connected IP phones and wireless access points are receiving PoE power from the switch. ... Servers 1 Gbps Full Duplex ... ...

2 Application Examples Remote Connections with Fiber Cable Fiber optic technology allows for longer cabling than any other media type. A 1000BASE-SX (MMF) link can connect to a site up to 550 meters away, a 1000BASE-LX (SMF) link up to 5 km, and a 1000BASE-ZX link up to 100 km. This allows a switch to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct connectivity for a widespread LAN. A 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver can be used for a high-speed connection between floors in the same building.

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).
Chapter 3: Installing the Switch Selecting a Site TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 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.
3 Installing the Switch RJ-45 Connector Figure 3-1 RJ-45 Connections Equipment Checklist After unpacking the TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 unit, 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.
3 Mounting Mounting A TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 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. Rack Mounting Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors: • Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating temperature range (see page -1).
3 Installing the Switch Figure 3-3 Installing the Switch in a Rack 3. If installing a single switch only, turn to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. 4. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order. Desktop or Shelf Mounting 1. Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the first switch.
3 Installing an SFP Transceiver 2. Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow. 3. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. 4. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one. Place each device squarely on top of the one below, in any order.
3 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 socket located at the back of the device. Figure 3-6 Power Socket 2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin, AC power source. 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 socket type in your country. 3.

Chapter 4: Making Network Connections Connecting Network Devices The TigerSwitch 10/100/1000 units are designed to interconnect multiple segments (or collision domains). It can be connected to network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to hubs, switches or routers. It may also be connected to devices using optional SFP transceivers. Twisted-Pair Devices Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
4 Making Network Connections See Appendix B: for further information on cabling. Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This will damage the switch. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform to FCC standards. Connecting to PCs, Servers, Hubs and Switches 1. Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable segment to the device’s RJ-45 connector. Figure 4-1 Making Twisted-Pair Connections 2.
Fiber Optic SFP Devices 4 1. Attach one end of a patch cable to an available port on the switch, and the other end to the patch panel. 2. If not already in place, attach one end of a cable segment to the back of the patch panel where the punch-down block is located, and the other end to a modular wall outlet. 3. Label the cables to simplify future troubleshooting. See “Cable Labeling and Connection Records” on page 4-6.
4 Making Network Connections Caution: 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.
4 Connectivity Rules The 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX fiber optic ports operate at 1 Gbps full duplex. The maximum length for fiber optic cable operating at Gigabit speed will depend on the fiber type as listed under “1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Collision Domain” on page 4-5. Connectivity Rules When adding hubs (repeaters) to your network, please follow the connectivity rules listed in the manuals for these products.

4 Cable Labeling and Connection Records • Note the length of each cable and the maximum cable length supported by the switch ports. • For ease of understanding, use a location-based key when assigning prefixes to your cable labeling. • Use sequential numbers for cables that originate from the same equipment. • Differentiate between racks by naming accordingly. • Label each separate piece of equipment. • Display a copy of your equipment map, including keys to all abbreviations at each equipment rack.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting Diagnosing Switch Indicators Table A-1 Troubleshooting Chart Symptom Action Power LED is Off • Check connections between the switch, the power cord, and the wall outlet. • Contact your dealer for assistance. • Contact SMC Technical Support. Power LED is Amber • Internal power supply has failed. Contact your local dealer for assistance. Link LED is Off • Verify that the switch and attached device are powered on.
A Troubleshooting In-Band Access You can access the management agent in the switch from anywhere within the attached network using Telnet, a Web browser, or other network management software tools. However, you must first configure the switch with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. If you have trouble establishing a link to the management agent, check to see if you have a valid network connection. Then verify that you entered the correct IP address.
Appendix B: Cables Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments For 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. For 1000BASE-T connections the twisted-pair cable must have four pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
