  • Page 21: Chapter 1: About The Tigerswitch 10/100/1000

    This Gigabit Ethernet switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. The switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.

  • Page 22: Power-Over-Ethernet Capability

    Description of Hardware 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports The switch contains 24 RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. Because all ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight- through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

  • Page 27: Chapter 2: Network Planning

    When networks are based on repeater (hub) technology, the distance between end stations is limited by a maximum hop count. However, a switch turns the hop count back to zero. So subdividing the network into smaller and more manageable segments, and linking them to the larger network by means of a switch, removes this limitation.

  • Page 28: Network Aggregation Plan

    1 Gbps Full Duplex Network Aggregation Plan With 24 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 24 distinct collision domains), a Gigabit switch can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput. In the figure below, the 10/100/1000BASE-T ports are providing 1000 Mbps connectivity through cascaded switches.

  • Page 29: Remote Connections With Fiber Cable

    1000BASE-SX (MMF) link can connect to a site up to 550 meters away, a 1000BASE-LX (SMF) link up to 5 km, and a 1000BASE-ZX link up to 100 km. This allows a switch to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct connectivity for a widespread LAN.

  • Page 30: Application Notes

    VLAN 2 Testing VLAN 3 VLAN 4 Note: When connecting to a switch that does not support IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags, use untagged ports. Application Notes Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode.

  • Page 31: Chapter 3: Installing The Switch

    Ethernet Cabling To ensure proper operation when installing the switch in a network, make sure that the current cables are suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your network: •...

  • Page 33: Mounting

    Mounting instructions for each type of site follow. Rack Mounting Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors: • Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating temperature range (see page -1).

    Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter.

    Connect one end of the cable to the LC port on the switch and the other end to the LC port on the other device. Since LC connectors are keyed, the cable can be attached in only one orientation.

    However, note that because switches break up the path for connected devices into separate collision domains, you should not include the switch or connected cabling in your calculations for cascade length involving other devices.

    IP address. Also, be sure the port through which you are connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled, then check the network cabling that runs between your remote location and the switch.

    In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the cable. When using any RJ-45 port on the switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable.

  • Page 50: Straight-Through Wiring

    If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.) You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support Gigabit Ethernet connections.

  • Page 51: Crossover Wiring

    “X” (indicating MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an “X” (which indicates MDI), a crossover must be implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.) You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support Gigabit Ethernet connections.
