  • Page 22: Switch Architecture

    Introduction Switch Architecture The Fast Ethernet Switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection. Network Management Options This switch contains a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance”...

    Each port also supports auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated. On the LS-OS-6224U, there are two RJ-45 ports, which are shared with two of the SFP transceiver slots. SFP Slots On all devices except the LS-OS-6224U, the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots are shared with two of the RJ-45 ports (Ports 25~26/49~50).

    Chapter 3: Making Network Connections Connecting Network Devices This switch is designed to interconnect multiple segments (or collision domains). It can be connected to network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to hubs, switches or routers. It may also be connected to devices using optional SFP transceivers. Twisted-Pair Devices Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
  • Page 38: Network Wiring Connections

    Making Network Connections If the device is a PC card and the switch is in the wiring closet, attach the other end of the cable segment to a modular wall outlet that is connected to the wiring closet. (See “Wiring Closet Connections” on the next page.) Otherwise, attach the other end to an available port on the switch.
