About BandwidthManager
BandwidthManager from Black Box
is a two port ,10 Mbps Ethernet networking
device that provides the ability to regulate
bandwidth bi-directionally. It is available as a
standalone unit or as an SNMP-manageable
module to be used in conjunction with Black
Box' SNMP-manageable media conversion
chassis.
BandwidthManager features two RJ-45
data ports (labeled A and B), as well as a DB-
9 serial port for IP configuration. Both RJ-45
ports may be configured for Half-Duplex (HDX) or Full-Duplex (FDX)
operation (set this based on the capabilities of the connected hardware).

DIP Switch Settings

You can set bandwidth of the data ports on BandwidthManager for any
value up to 10 Mbps. The following instructions detail how to configure a
BandwidthManager managed via iView™, an SNMP-compatible manage-
ment application.
BandwidthManager is managed through its data ports. Before installing
BandwidthManager into your network, you may want to change the
device's default DIP switch settings which designate which port(s) will
manage traffic (default settings shown in diagram below).
Refer to the figure below for DIP switch location and settings:
