Introducton
Thank you for choosing the 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port
Gigabit Switch with WebView and Power over Ethernet .
This Switch will allow you to network better than ever .
The 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView
delivers non-blocking, wire speed switching for your 10
and 100 megabit network clients, plus multiple options
for connecting to your network backbone . Twenty Four
10/100 ports wire up your workstations, while the four
integrated 10/100/1000 ports connect to other switches
and the backbone at Gigabit speeds . The miniGBIC ports
allow future expansion through alternate transmission
media like optical fiber .
All of the 10/100 ports on the Switch support pre-standard
and IEEE 802 .3af standard (802 .3af ) Power over Ethernet
(PoE) capabilities . Each port can detect connected
pre-standard and 802 .3af-compliant network devices, such
as IP phones or wireless access points, and automatically
supply the required DC power .
The Switch can provide DC power to a wide range of
connected devices, eliminating the need for an additional
power source and cutting down on the amount of cables
attached to each device . Once configured to supply
power, an automatic detection process is initialized by the
Switch that is authenticated by a PoE signature from the
connected device . Detection and authentication prevent
damage to non-PoE devices .
The Switch features WebView monitoring and configuration
via your web browser, making it easy to manage the 256
VLANs and up to 8 trunking groups . Or if you prefer, you
can use the integrated console port to configure the
Switch . The non-blocking, wire-speed switching forwards
packets as fast as your network can deliver them .
All ports have automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection .
Each port independently and automatically negotiates the
best speed and whether to run in half- or full-duplex mode .
Head-of-line blocking prevention keeps your high-speed
clients from bogging down in lower-speed traffic and fast
store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets
from being passed on into the network .
Use the instructions in this User Guide to help you connect
the Switch, set it up, and configure it to bridge your
different networks . These instructions should be all you
need to get the most out of the 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port
Gigabit Switch with WebView and Power over Ethernet .
