2.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION - ES1008 Switches
Waters’ family of ES1008 switches boosts the performance of Ethernet LANs with the flexibility of both
twisted-pair switched ports and a fiber port. The optional 9
th
port can be either fiber or copper, and the 8 RJ45 ports
are 10/100Mbps and support auto-negotiating.
The ES1008 switches provide the switching speed and the reliability to smoothly support multiple workgroups
at 10 or 100Mbps. The optional “future-proof” fiber port is 100Mbps with factory default setting to operate in full-
duplex mode.
Designed for use in workgroups, classrooms, remote offices and network traffic centers, the ES1008 switches
are easy to install and use. Addresses of attached nodes are automatically learned and maintained, adapting the
switching services to network changes and expansions. Front-mounted LEDs provide status information for each
port.
All LED connectors and manual switches are located on the front panel of the ES1008 switches. There are
power (PWR) and error (Error) indicators for the unit; for visual indication of the operating status of each domain,
there are Link and Activity (Link/Act) indicators for each 10Mbps and 100Mbps domain; and there are Speed and F/H
Full and Half duplex LEDs for each port. The manual switch with (= x) supports the crossover feature for port #1,
whereas the “F-H” manual switch for the 9
th
port is user-selectable for full-fixed and half-duplex.
2.1 Fiber Ports
An optional 9
th
port is available for the ES1008 switch. All optional fiber ports are fixed at 100Mbps for both
multi- and singlemode fiber. Multimode fiber ports are available with ST, SC, and MTRJ and VF45 connectors, and
singlemode ports are available with SC connectors.
The 100Mbps fiber port modules on the ES1008 are factory set to operate in full-duplex mode for best fiber
distance and performance.
On the ES1008 fiber models there are two LED’s per fiber port. The Link (LK) LED indicates, “ready for
operation” when lit, and an LED indicates Receiving Activity (ACT) on the port. A fiber cable must be connected to
