  • Page 7: Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

    D-Link DGS -1008D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor. You c a n do so by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
  • Page 8: Introduction

    802.1P and QoS The DGS-1008D Switch supports 802.1p priority queuing Quality of Service. The implementation of QoS (Quality of Service) and benefits of using 802.1p priority queuing are described here.
  • Page 9: Understanding Qos

    The picture above shows the default priority setting for the Switch. Class-3 has the highest priority of the four priority queues on the Switch. In order to implement QoS, the user is required to instruct the Switch to examine the header of a packet to see if it has the proper identifying tag tagged.
  • Page 10: Switch Description

    Switch Description The DGS -1008D Switch is equipped with five ports providing dedicat ed 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps bandwidth. These ports can be used for connecting PCs, printers, servers, routers, Switches, hubs, and other network devices. The five multi-speed ports use standard twisted pair cabling and are ideal for segmenting networks into small, connected subnets.
  • Page 11: Led Indicators

    LED indicators follows (see LED Indicators). The LED indicators of the Switch include Power, Link/Act, 1000Mbps, and 100Mbps. The Cable Diagnostic functions of the Switch are indicated by a combination of the Speed and the Link/Act LEDs, as described below.
  • Page 12: Rear Panel Description

    Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter. Check the technical specification section for information about the AC power input voltage. Figure 1-3. Rear panel view of the Switch 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports: Eight (8) Gigabit Ethernet, Auto-Negotiating ports (10/100/1000Mbps) Comprehensive LED indicators display the conditions of t he Switch and status of the network.
  • Page 13: Installation

    The site where you install the Switch may greatly affect its pe rformance. Please follow these guidelines for setting up the Switch. Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support at least 3 kg (6.6 lbs.) of weight. Do not place heavy objects on the Switch.

    Attaching the Rubber Feet § Use the rubber feet provided. Position and apply the rubber feet to the underside of the DGS-1008D Switch. Figure 2 -2. Attaching the Rubber Feet Do not place any device on top of Switch, or place the Switch on top of any device...
  • Page 15: Power On

    D-Link DGS -1008D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Power On Plug one end of the AC to DC power converter into the power connector of the Switch and the other end into the local power source outlet. After the Switch is powered on, the LED indicators will momentarily blink. This blinking of the LED indicators represents a reset of the system.
  • Page 16: Connecting The Switch

    End nodes include PCs outfitted with a 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) and most routers. An end node can be connected to the Switch via a twisted-pair Category 3, 4, 5, or 5e UTP/STP cable. The end node can be connected to any of the ports of the Switch.
