to perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time. In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet is the most cost-effective method to take advantage of today and tomorrow’s rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking technologies.
environments, it provides a straightforward upgrade and takes advantage of the existing investment in hardware, software, and personnel training. Switching Technology Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet technology is in the field of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or fast Ethernet LAN segments.
Features The LevelOne GSW-2010T Switch was designed for easy installation and high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users increase continuously. Switch features include: Ports ♦ Two 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet port (port 9 ~ 10).
NPACKING AND ETUP This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Switch. Unpacking Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents. The carton should contain the following items: ♦ One 8 port Fast Ethernet Switch with Two Gigabit port ♦...
♦ Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from 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 (optional) The 10-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. To install, attach the mounting brackets on the switch’s front panel (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided.
Power on The LevelOne GSW-2010T Switch can be used with AC power sources 100 - 240 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz. The Switch’s power supply will adjust to the local power source automatically and may be turned on...
DENTIFYING XTERNAL OMPONENTS 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 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports, 2 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet port, and LED indicators. Figure 3-1. Front panel view of the 10-port 10/100Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch ♦...
Rear Panel The rear panel of the Switch consists of an AC power connector. The following shows the rear panel of the Switch. Figure 3-2. Rear panel view of the 10-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch ♦ AC Power Connector This is a three-pronged connector that supports the power cord.
