  • Page 9: About This Guide

    Conventions For simplicity, the term ‘switch’ refers to all Dual-speed, Ethernet or Fast Ethernet switches, including the DES-1008D. The model number is used only to explain features specific to the DES-1008D switch. Overview of this User’s Guide ♦ Chapter 1, Introduction.
  • Page 10 LED indicators of the switch. ♦ Chapter 4, Connecting the Switch. Tells how you can connect the DES-1008D to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network. ♦ Appendix A, Technical Specifications. Lists the technical (general, physical and environmental, and performance) specifications of the switch.

  • Page 11: Introduction

    10/100 Dual-Speed Switch User’s Guide NTRODUCTION This section describes the features of the DES-1008D, and gives some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching technology. Dual-Speed Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for higher performance networks.
  • Page 12 Your DES-1008D has 8 ports, all of which are dual-speed, capable of full/half duplex operation and NWay enabled. All Ethernet and Fast Ethernet devices connected to the switch will be able to intercommunicate.

  • Page 13: Switching Technology

    10/100 Dual-Speed Switch User’s Guide Switching Technology Switches can increase network performance by: • Eliminating network bottlenecks. • Increasing data throughput (also called aggregate bandwidth) to support more traffic. • Providing high-speed, dedicated (collision-free) data paths for network backbones and servers. •...

  • Page 14: Eliminating Network Bottlenecks

    10/100 Dual-Speed Switch User’s Guide Eliminating Network Bottlenecks Collisions are a normal occurrence when using Ethernet and they don’t usually have a noticeable affect on overall network performance. However, when too many stations are competing for use of the network, collision rates can become very high and network performance can be affected.

  • Page 15: Increasing Network Bandwidth

    10/100 Dual-Speed Switch User’s Guide Increasing Network Bandwidth A switch is capable of receiving and forwarding transmissions for more than one port at the same time. In the case of half-duplex ports which can either send or receive data, the switch can handle transmissions from up to half of its ports (since the other half are presumably receiving).

  • Page 16: Extending Fast Ethernet Networks

    10/100 Dual-Speed Switch User’s Guide Since bottlenecks most commonly occur in the backbone and servers, installing a switch to service these areas can greatly increase the speed of a network without having to replace other network components such as the servers themselves, hubs, client NIC’s, etc.
