FCC Warning This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
For simplicity, this documentation uses the terms “Switch” (first letter upper case) to refer to the 8-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case) to refer to all Ethernet switches, including the 8 -Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
Gigabit Ethernet and switching technology. Gigabit Ethernet Technology Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet, utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and management objects, but...
Since the Gigabit Ethernet data transfer rate is 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet, servers equipped with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time. This makes Gigabit Ethernet the perfect solution for video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar data-intensive applications.
Switch, on the other hand, is less expensive, easier to setup, and practically maintenance free, which make it an ideal solution to today’s local area network congestion problems. Features...
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. Setup The setup of the Switch can be performed using the following steps: The surface must support at least 5 kg. The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the device.
Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the Switch. Do not place heavy objects on the Switch. Desktop or Shelf Installation When installing the Switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the device must be first attached.
Rack Installation The Switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipments. To install, attach the mounting brackets on the switch’s side panels (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided.
This chapter describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the Switch Front Panel The front panel of the Switch consists of 8 1000BASE-T ports and LED indicators. Front panel of the Switch Eight Gigabit Ethernet ports of 10/100/1000Mbps Auto- Negotiation interface.
Rear Panel The rear panel of the Switch consists of an AC power connector and on/off switch. The following shows the rear panel of the Switch. Rear panel view of the Switch AC Power Connector This is a three-pronged connector that supports the power cord.
