WITCH The EZ Switch 10/100 SMC-EZ1024FDT and SMC-EZ1016FDT are 24/16-port Fast Ethernet switches. They have one slot on the rear panel for a fiber optic uplink module with one 100BASE-FX (SC, ST, MTRJ or VF-45) type port. The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports deliver dedicated 10/100 Mbps links to each attached LAN segment.
EZ S 10/100 WITCH Features and Benefits N Auto configuration for MDI/MDI-X cable connection allows connections to servers, workstations, hubs or switches to be made with straight-through cabling N Optional multimode and single-mode fiber uplink modules N Auto-negotiation of half or full duplex on all ports N IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u compliance ensures compatibility with standards-based hubs, switches and cards from any vendor N Half and full-duplex flow control prevents packets from being...
Front Panel LEDs The front panel of the switch provides status LEDs for “at-a-glance” system monitoring. The following table details the functions of the various indicators: Condition Power RJ-45 Ports Link/ Flashing 100M Port and System Status LEDs Status The switch is receiving power.
Link/ Flashing Note: All optional modules operate in full-duplex mode only. Rear Panel The AC power receptacle is located on the rear panel of the switch. Port and System Status LEDs Status The module has established a valid network connection.
The fiber modules are shown in the figure below. When you connect fiber cable to a 100 Mbps module on the switch, be sure you use an SC, ST, MTRJ or VF-45 type connector, depending on the module. When inserting the cable, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
