  • Page 22: About The Tigerswitch 10/100/1000

    The switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. The switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection. The switch uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity.

  • Page 27: Network Planning

    When networks are based on repeater (hub) technology, the distance between end stations is limited by a maximum hop count. However, a switch turns the hop count back to zero. So subdividing the network into smaller and more manageable segments, and linking them to the larger network by means of a switch, removes this limitation.

  • Page 28: Application Examples

    You can easily build on this basic configuration, adding direct full- duplex connections to workstations or servers. When the time comes for further expansion, just connect to another hub or switch using one of the Gigabit Ethernet ports built into the front panel, a Gigabit Ethernet port on a plug-in SFP transceiver.

  • Page 29: Central Wiring Closet

    Central Wiring Closet With 24 parallel bridging ports (i.e., 24 distinct collision domains), this switch can collapse a complex network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and throughput. In the figure below, the 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports on the switch are providing 1 Gbps full-duplex connections for up to 24 local segments.

  • Page 30: Remote Connections With Fiber Cable

    A 1000BASE-SX (MMF) link can connect to a site up to 550 meters away, a 1000BASE-LX (SMF) link up to 5 km, and a 1000BASE-ZX link up to 100 km. This allows a switch stack to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct connectivity for a widespread LAN.

  • Page 31: Making Vlan Connections

    Making VLAN Connections The switch supports VLANs that 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 32: Application Notes

    1. Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. 2. For network applications that require routing between dissimilar network types, you can attach the switch directly to a multi-protocol router.

  • Page 51: Troubleshooting

    Contact SMC Technical Support. • Verify that the switch and attached device are powered • Be sure the cable is plugged into both the switch and corresponding device. • If the switch is installed in a rack, check the connections to the punch-down block and patch panel.

    Then verify that you entered the correct IP address. Also, be sure the port through which you are connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled, then check the network cabling that runs between your remote location and the switch.

  • Page 53: Cables

    Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments For 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. For 1000BASE-T connections the twisted-pair cable must have four pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes.

  • Page 54: 10Base-T/100Base-Tx Pin Assignments

    1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the cable. When using any RJ-45 port on the switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable.

  • Page 55: Twisted-Pair Cable And Pin Assignments

    (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on the switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.) You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support Gigabit Ethernet connections.

  • Page 56: Crossover Wiring

    “X” (which indicates MDI), a crossover must be implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on the switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.) You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support Gigabit Ethernet connections.

  • Page 57: 1000Base-T Pin Assignments

    1000BASE-T Pin Assignments All 1000BASE-T ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. The table below shows the 1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port pinouts. These ports require that all four pairs of wires be connected.
