C HAPTER 1 Getting to Know Your Switch 1.1 Overview This User’s Guide covers the following models: ES1100-16, ES1100-24, ES1100-24E, ES1100-8P, and ES1100-16P. The Switch can be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch Figure 1 Front Panel ES1100-8P ES1100-16 ES1100-16P ES1100-24E ES1100-24 The Switch has a built-in algorithm that automatically assigns priority to received packets. 1.2 Features The following are the essential features of the Switch. • Conforms to IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, and 802.3x standards. • ES1000-8P and ES1100-16P support IEEE 802.3af PoE standard. • Auto-negotiating 10/100 Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 ports (ES1000-8P and ES1100-16P include FE PoE ports).
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch • Link-on cable length power saving and link-down power saving. • IEEE 802.3az (only ES1100-16/24E/24) • Loop detection (only ES1100-16/24E/24) • Jumbo frame (only ES1100-16/24E/24) • Embedded MAC address table providing MAC addresses entries (ES1100-16, ES1100-16P, ES1100-24 and ES1100-24E provide 8K; ES1100-8P provides 1K). Refer to Chapter 4 on page 23 for the product specifications. 1.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch The following figure depicts a typical segment bridge application of the Switch in an enterprise environment. The two networks (RD and Sales), the standalone server and the computers can all communicate with each other and share all network resources. Figure 3 Bridging Example 1.4 Power Over Ethernet (PoE) The PoE function is available for ES1100-8P and ES1100-16P only. ES1000-8P and ES1100-16P has FE PoE ports and supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE).
C HAPTER 2 Hardware Description and Connection 2.1 Rear Panel The three-pronged power receptacle is located on the rear panel of the Switch. Refer to the Product Specifications on page 23 for power specification. Figure 5 Rear Panel ES1100-8P ES1100-16 ES1100-16P ES1100-24E ES1100-24 2.1.1 Rear Panel Power Connection Connect one end of the supplied power cord to the power receptacle on the back of the Switch and the other end to the appropriate power source.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection For ES1100-16/24E, use the ON/OFF switch to have the Switch power on or off. 2.2 Front Panel The front panel of the Switch includes the auto-negotiating 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX RJ-45 ports and the LEDs. 2.2.1 RJ-45 Auto-negotiating Ports The 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX RJ-45 ports are auto-negotiating and auto-crossover.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection 2.2.3 Front Panel LEDs The LED Indicators give real-time information about the status of the Switch. The following tables provide descriptions of the LEDs. Figure 6 LEDs for ES1100-16/24/24E ES1100-16 ES1100-24 ES1100-24E Table 3 LED Descriptions for ES1100-16/24/24E LED COLOR STATUS DESCRIPTION PWR Green On The Switch is on and receiving power. Off The Switch is not receiving power.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection 2.3 Hardware Installation See the following table for a comparison of the hardware installation methods of each ES1100 model: Table 5 ES1100 Series Installation Comparison Table MODEL FEATURE ES1100-8P ES1100-16 ES1100-16P ES1100-24 ES1100-24E Desktop Device Wall-mountable Rack-mountable Note: Ask an authorized technician to attach the Switch to the rack/wall.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection 2 Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the screws. 150 mm The Switch should be wall-mounted horizontally. The Switch's side panels with ventilation slots should not be facing up or down as this position is less safe. 2.3.2 Rack Mounting The Switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other equipment.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch 1 Position a mounting bracket on one side of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the Switch. Figure 8 Attaching the Mounting Brackets (ES1100-8P/16/16P/24E) Figure 9 Attaching the Mounting Brackets (ES1100-24) 18 2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M3 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes into the Switch.
Chapter 2 Hardware Description and Connection 2.3.3 Mounting the Switch on a Rack 1 Position a mounting bracket (that is already attached to the Switch) on one side of the rack, lining up the two screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the rack. Figure 10 Mounting the Switch on a Rack (ES1100-8P/16/16P/24E) Figure 11 Mounting the Switch on a Rack (ES1100-24) 2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M5 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes into the rack.
C HAPTER 3 Troubleshooting This section describes common problems you may encounter with the Switch and possible solutions. Troubleshoot the Switch using the LEDs to detect problems. The PWR LED on the front panel does not light up. • Check the connections from your Switch to the power source. Make sure you are using the supplied power cord and that you are using an appropriate power source. Refer to the product specifications.
Chapter 3 Troubleshooting 3.1 Improper Network Cabling and Topology Improper network cabling or topology setup is a common cause of poor network performance or even network failure. Figure 12 Troubleshooting Improper Network Cabling and Topology PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION Faulty cables Using faulty network cables may affect data rates and have an impact on your network performance.
