1 INTRODUCTION OVERVIEW The EZ Switch 10/100/1000, SMCGS501 and SMCGS801, are powerful, highperformance Gigabit Ethernet switches with 5 or 8 ports. The switches support auto-negotiation on all ports, which means they automatically negotiate with connected partners to determine the network speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (full or half duplex). The auto-sensing ability of the ports provides an easy way to migrate from 10/ 100 Mbps to a 1000 Mbps network.
CHAPTER 1 | Introduction Package Contents ◆ SMC Warranty Card ◆ Quick Install Guide FEATURES ◆ Complies with 10BASE-T specifications of the IEEE 802.3 standard ◆ Complies with 100BASE-TX specifications of the IEEE 802.3u standard ◆ Complies with 1000BASE-T specifications of the IEEE 802.
CHAPTER 1 | Introduction Package Contents IEEE 802.1P QOS The SMCGS501 and SMCGS801 switches support 802.1p priority queuing Quality of Service, which is an implementation of the IEEE 802.1p standard. With the 802.1p QoS function, you can reserve bandwidth for important functions that require a lot of bandwidth or have a high priority, such as VoIP (Voice-over Internet Protocol), web browsing applications, or video conferencing.

2 HARDWARE DESCRIPTION PORT AND SYSTEM STATUS LEDS The switch contains one power LED for the device and LINK/ACT LEDs for each port. Please refer to the following table for LEDs definition: Figure 2: Front Panels 5-Port EZ Switch 10/100/1000 Mbps SMCGS501 802.az 8-Port EZ Switch 10/100/1000 Mbps SMCGS801 802.az Table 1: System and Port Status LEDs LED Condition Status POWER On Green The internal power supply is operating normally. Off The unit has no power connected.
CHAPTER 2 | Hardware Description Installation INSTALLATION When installing the switch, follow these guidelines: ◆ Place the switch with appropriate ventilation environment. A minimum of 25 mm space around the unit is recommended. ◆ Place the switch and connected cables away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, transmitters, and broadband amplifiers. ◆ Be sure the switch is placed away from moisture and locations that are beyond its recommended environmental specifications.
A TROUBLESHOOTING DIAGNOSING SWITCH INDICATORS THE POWER LED IS OFF ◆ Make sure the AC power cord is connected to the switch and power source properly. ◆ Make sure the power source is ON. THE LINK/ACT LED IS OFF WHEN A DEVICE IS CONNECTED TO THE CORRESPONDING PORT ◆ Make sure that the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the switch and the device. ◆ Make sure the connected device is turned on and working properly. ◆ The cable must be less than 100 meters long (328 feet).
APPENDIX A | Troubleshooting Installation INSTALLATION Verify that all system components have been properly installed. If one or more components appear to be malfunctioning (such as the power cord or network cabling), test them in an alternate environment where you are sure that all the other components are functioning properly.
