    Fast Ethernet Vista Ports with Built-in LEDs All of the ports on the switch are 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports. The network access speed for the ports is automatically sensed and displayed on the front panel by the 100 Mbps LEDs.
  • Page 5 LEDs This table describes the activity of the Model FS102/FS104/FS108 switch LEDs. Label Color Activity Description Pwr (Power) Green On Power is supplied to the switch. Power is disconnected. Rx/Tx/Collision Green Blinking Packet transmission or reception is occurring on the port.
  • Page 6 The Normal/Uplink push button on the front panel of the switch allows you to select uplink (MDI) or normal (MDI-X) wiring for either of the Ethernet ports on the Model FS102 switch, port 4 on the Model FS104 switch, or port 8 on the Model FS108 switch. These ports are configured for normal wiring to connect to a PC when the push button position is out.
  • Page 7 Although the examples illustrate specific switches, any of the switches can be used in the network configurations shown. Desktop Switching The Model FS108 switch is used as a desktop switch to build a small network that enables users to have 100 Mbps access to a file server. 100 Mbps...

    When connecting any of the 10/100 Mbps ports on the switch to a hub, set the port to AUTO. The switch must also be set to AUTO when connecting to any device that does not use NWay autonegotiation to detect the operating mode. Setting the toggle switch to AUTO will cause the port to default to half-duplex mode when connecting to a port that does not use autonegotiation.
