  • Page 21: Chapter 1: Introduction

    Chapter 1: Introduction Overview The SMCGS8P-Smart is an intelligent Layer 2 switch with 8 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, one of which is a Gigabit combination port transceiver slot. The switch’s 8 10/100/1000 Mbps ports support the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard that enables DC power to be supplied to attached devices over the data wire pairs in the connecting Ethernet cable.

  • Page 22: Switch Architecture

    Port 1 on the switch can provide up to 25 W of power to an attached device at the standard 48 DC voltage. Ports 2-8 can provide up to 15.4 W of power. However, all ports can only provide up to 7.5 W of power when connected to PoE devices...

  • Page 23: Description Of Hardware

    Description of Hardware 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports The switch contains 8 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: Application Examples

    Network Planning Application Examples The switch is not only designed to segment your network, but also to provide a wide range of options in setting up network connections. Some typical applications are described below. Supplying PoE The switch is an excellent choice for supplying power to connected PoE devices such as web cameras, IP telephones or access points.

  • Page 29: Meeting Room

    With 8 1000Mbps parallel bridging ports (i.e., 8 distinct collision domains), this switch can function as an efficient bridged node that is ideal for a meeting room environment. Low noise cooling fans make the switch inobtrusive for such a setting.

  • Page 31: Application Notes

    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. For network applications that require routing between dissimilar network types, you can attach the switch directly to a multi-protocol router.

  • Page 33: Chapter 3: Installing The Switch

    Chapter 3: Installing the Switch Selecting a Site switch units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location. • The site should: • be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet.

  • Page 34: Equipment Checklist

    • A screwdriver (Phillips or flathead, depending on the type of screws used) Mounting A switch unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site follow.

  • Page 35: Rack Mounting

    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 C-1.).

  • Page 36: Desktop Or Shelf Mounting

    Mount the device in the rack, using four rack-mounting screws (not provided). Figure 3-3 Installing the Switch in a Rack If installing a single switch only, turn to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order.

  • Page 37: Installing An Optional Sfp Transceiver

    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.

  • Page 38: Connecting To A Power Source

    Installing the Switch Connecting to a Power Source To connect a device to a power source: Insert the power cable plug directly into the socket located at the back of the device. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin, AC power source.

  • Page 39: Chapter 4: Making Network Connections

    The power on a port is continuously monitored by the switch and it will be turned off as soon as a device connection is removed.

  • Page 40: Cabling Guidelines

    62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic cabling with an LC connector at both ends. Warning: The switch use lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently eye safe in normal operation.

  • Page 43: Figure 4-3 Making Connections To Sfp Transceivers

    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. Figure 4-3 Making Connections to SFP Transceivers As a connection is made, check the Link LED on the switch corresponding to the port to be sure that the connection is valid.

  • Page 44: Connectivity Rules

    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.

    For each piece of equipment, identify the devices to which it is connected. • Note the length of each cable and the maximum cable length supported by the switch ports. • For ease of understanding, use a location-based key when assigning prefixes to your cable labeling.

  • Page 47: Appendix A: Troubleshooting

    • Be sure the cable is plugged into both the switch and corresponding device. • If the switch is installed in a rack, check the connections to the punch-down block and patch panel. • Verify that the proper cable type is used and its length does not exceed specified limits.

    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 the 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.
