    NXA-ENET8-2POE Overview The NXA-ENET8-2POE (FG2178-63) is a Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 PoE switch with 8 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, and 2 Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots, (see FIG. 1, Ports 9-10). The NXA-ENET8-2POE also includes an SNMP-based management agent, which provides in-band access for managing the switch.

    Gigabit Ethernet port on a plug-in SFP transceiver. In FIG. 9, the NXA-ENET8-2POE is operating as a collapsed backbone for a small LAN. It is providing dedicated 1000 Mbps full- duplex connections to workstations and 100 Mbps full-duplex connections to power users, and 1 Gbps full-duplex connections to servers.
  • Page 22: Power Over Ethernet (Poe) Connections

    The NXA-ENET8-2POE is an excellent choice for supplying power to connected PoE devices such as web cameras, IP telephones, or access points. In FIG. 10 the NXA-ENET8-2POE is supplying power to three PoE devices. It is also providing dedicated 1000 Mbps full-duplex data connections to these devices.
  • Page 23: Remote Connections With Fiber Cable

    FIG. 12 Making VLAN Connections The NXA-ENET8-2POE supports VLANs which can be used to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks. This provides a more secure and cleaner network environment.
  • Page 24: Application Notes

    Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a NXA-ENET8-2POE is attached to a workstation, server, or another switch). When the NXA-ENET8-2POE is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually required to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade overall performance for the segment attached to the hub.
  • Page 25: Installation

    Ethernet Cabling To ensure proper operation when installing the NXA-ENET8-2POE into a network, make sure that the current cables are suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your network: Cable type: Un-shielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables with RJ-45 connectors;...

    Installation Desktop or Shelf Mounting Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the first NXA-ENET8-2POE (FIG. 18): Attaching the Adhesive Feet FIG. 18 Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow.
  • Page 28 However, always f irst disconnect the network cable before removing the transceiver. NOTE: The NXA-ENET8-2POE uses lasers to transmit signals over f iber optic cable. The lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a transmit port when it is powered on.
  • Page 29: Network Connections

    Connecting Network Devices The NXA-ENET8-2POE is designed to be connected to 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to other switches and hubs. It may also be connected to remote devices using optional 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASELX, 1000BASE-LH, or 100BASE-FX SFP transceivers.
