Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch CCCCCCCCCC Lightning Protection 3333 Cabling Reasonably In the actual network environment, you may need cable outdoors and indoors, and the requirements for cabling outdoors and indoors are different. A reasonable cabling system can decrease the damage of induced lightning to devices. Note: It's not recommended using Ethernet cables outdoors. When cabling outdoors, please use a signal lightning arrester.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch ■■ Requirements for Cabling Indoors When cabling indoors, keep a certain distance away from the devices that may cause high-frequency interferences, such as down-conductor cable, powerline, power transformer and electromotor. ■■ ■■ The main cable should be paved in the metal raceway of the access shaft. When cabling, keep the loop area formed by the cable itself as small as possible.

Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch CCCCCCCCCC Function Description 5555 System Setting System setting contains the following topics: displaying and configuring the switch information, upgrading firmware, backing up and loading configuration, rebooting and soft-resetting, configuring username and password. 555555 System Setting The system information contains hardware version, software version, system description, system name, system location, contact information and run time.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch ¾¾ HD: half-duplex, the port supports transmission between the device and the client in only one direction at a time. ¾¾ FD: full-duplex, the port supports transmission between the device and its link partner in both directions simultaneously. Auto negotiation is a protocol between two link partners that enables a port to advertise its transmission rate and duplex mode to its partner.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch 5555 Network Setting The network module provides the function of setting the switch's IP address, dynamic binding and aging time, configuring static MAC address and filtering MAC address, displaying dynamic bound address and ping. 555555 Network Setting An IP address is indispensable for a switch to be accessed.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch 555555 Static MAC Address Table A static MAC address table entry contains a MAC address and its corresponding switch port. All the packets taking that MAC address as their destination will be forwarded to the corresponding switch port. The static MAC address won’t age, which differs from the dynamic MAC address. The static MAC address table entry is always valid before it is deleted.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch 555555 Ping The ping function is to test the connectedness of the link between the switch and destination. 5555 VLAN Setting VLANs are logical subgroups with a Local Area Network (LAN) that combine user stations and network devices into a single unit, regardless of the physical LAN segment to which they are attached. VLANs allow network traffic to flow more efficiently within subgroups.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch IEEE802.1Q Tag VLAN is divided by VLAN ID (VID). When receiving a frame, the switch checks the VID in the tag header of the frame to decide which VLAN it belongs to. If the receiving frame doesn’t contain the tag header, the switch will assign a tag to the frame, using the PVID of the port as its VID. 3) MTU VLAN MTU VLAN(Multi-Tenant Unit VLAN) defines an uplink port. The uplink port will build up several VLANs with each of the other ports.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch 555555 Port Default Priority If IEEE802.1p priority mode is configured, when a switch port receives an untagged frame (a frame without priority tag), the port's default priority tag will be inserted into the frame before any other process. 555555 802.1p Priority In IEEE802.1p priority mode, all packets are classified into four priority classes (lowest, lower, higher and highest) according to the embedded priority tag.
