Reset Button; Making Utp Connections - KTI Networks KGS-810F User Manual

2.6 Reset Button

The reset button is used to perform a reset to the switch. It is not used in normal cases and can be used for
diagnostic purpose. If any network hanging problem is suspected, it is useful to push the button to reset the
switch without turning off the power. Check whether the network is recovered.
The button can also be used to restore the software configuration settings to factory default values.
The operations are:
Operation
Press the button more than 5 seconds when power up
Press the button and release during switch operation

2.7 Making UTP Connections

The 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper ports support the following connection types and distances:
Network Cables
10BASE-T: 2-pair UTP Cat. 3, 4, 5, EIA/TIA-568B 100-ohm
100BASE-TX: 2-pair UTP Cat. 5, EIA/TIA-568B 100-ohm
1000BASE-T: 4-pair UTP Cat. 5 or higher (Cat.5e is recommended), EIA/TIA-568B 100-ohm
Link distance: Up to 100 meters
Auto MDI/MDI-X Function
This function allows the port to auto-detect the twisted-pair signals and adapts itself to form a valid MDI to
MDI-X connection with the remote connected device automatically. No matter a straight through cable or
crossover cable are connected, the ports can sense the receiving pair automatically and configure themselves to
match the rule for MDI to MDI-X connection. It simplifies the cable installation.
Auto-negotiation Function
The ports are featured with auto-negotiation function and full capability to support connection to any Ethernet
devices. The port performs a negotiation process for the speed and duplex configuration with the connected
device automatically when each time a link is being established. If the connected device is also
auto-negotiation capable, both devices will come out the best configuration after negotiation process. If the
connected device is incapable in auto-negotiation, the switch will sense the speed and use half duplex for the
connection.
Port Configuration Management
For making proper connection to an auto-negotiation incapable device, it is suggested to use port control
function via software management to set forced mode and specify speed and duplex mode which match the
configuration used by the connected device.
