EZ Switch 10/100/1000 INTRODUCTION The EZ Switch 10/100/1000, SMCGS5 and SMCGS8, are high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switches designed for delivering Gigabit connectivity to the desktop. It provides 5/8 full-duplex 1000BASE-T ports that significantly improve network performance and boost throughput for high-bandwidth applications. With 10/16 Gigabits of aggregate bandwidth, this switch provides the quickest solution to meeting the growing demands on your network's limited resources.
EZ Switch 10/100/1000 Front Panel LEDs The front panel of the switch provides status LEDs for “at-a-glance” system monitoring. The following table details the functions of the various indicators. Port and System Status LEDs LED Condition Status Power On Power on, normal operation. Off Power off or failure. On(Green) Network device is correctly connected to the switch through this port. Off No link. Flashing (Green) Data is being sent or received through this port.

EZ Switch 10/100/1000 INSTALLING THE SWITCH Before installing the switch, verify that you have all the items listed under “Package Contents.” If any of the items are missing or damaged, contact your local SMC distributor. Also be sure you have all the necessary tools and cabling before installing the switch.
EZ Switch 10/100/1000 • 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 2 m (6.6 feet) of the switch and is powered from an independent circuit breaker.
EZ Switch 10/100/1000 No crossover cables or other device settings are needed. See the “Cable Specifications” on page 9 of this guide for further information. Caution: 6 Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. This may damage the switch. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
