  • Page 11: Overview

    10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide VERVIEW Introduction The DES-810 and DES-818 Fast Ethernet Switches are ideal for network managers who want to boost workgroup performance easily by micro- segmenting a 10Mbps LAN while adding 100Mbps links. They are also excellently suited to provide dedicated Fast Ethernet connections to key network servers.
  • Page 12: 100Mbps Fast Ethernet Introduction

    LAN while preserving your initial investment and use of 10Mbps Ethernet LANs. 100Mbps Fast Ethernet Introduction Computers today have become increasingly powerful, with the capability to accommodate very sophisticated uses such as multimedia applications, video-conferencing, and CAD/CAM. To utilize these technologically advanced applications more efficiently, there is also a growing demand for faster networks that can handle heavy network traffic.
  • Page 13: Topology

    EIA/TIA 568 wiring rules, the network diameter of a Fast Ethernet collision domain is limited to 205 meters; in contrast, the maximum 10BASE-T Ethernet collision domain diameter can be up to 2500 meters. Overview 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide...
  • Page 14: Hubs

    The maximum length of a twisted-pair segment (that is, distance between a port in the hub to a single-address network device such as a PC, server, or LAN switch) is 100 meters. The maximum diameter in a collision domain is about 205 meters using two Class II hubs (or hub stacks) and 200 meters using one Class I hub.
  • Page 15: Switching Technology

    When connected to a switched port, each Ethernet segment has full “wire-speed” access, so a switch effectively divides a single Ethernet LAN into bridged multiple LAN segments. Each segment can support a workgroup or even provide a dedicated connection for a key workstation or server.
  • Page 16: 10/100 Switching Technology

    10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. Combining Fast Ethernet and switching technologies provides both bandwidth for local workgroups and a high- speed link to carry local traffic elsewhere in the network. Product Features The 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch has the following key features: MODEL PORTS (RJ-45) DES-818 16 10Mbps;...
  • Page 17: Packing List

    High-speed uplink port for connecting to a higher tier switch or other device. Flexibility of application: from segmentation of a large LAN to client- server maximization to dedicated connections for high-priority single users. Support for IEEE 802.3, 10BASE-2, 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3u and 100BASE-TX standards.
  • Page 18: Front Panel

    Front Panel The 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch front panel includes network connectors and LED indicators for ease-of-use. Figure 1 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch Front Panel Ports The product comes with twisted-pair ports. These ports can be used to connect to individual stations in need of faster access, to segment heavily utilized LANs, and/or to provide higher bandwidth access to a key server in a client-server environment.
  • Page 19 In either duplex mode, the twisted-pair ports can operate over 100 meters of Category 5 UTP or STP cable. Possible uses for the 10/100Mbps switch ports: Add Fast Ethernet segments to an existing 10Mbps LAN.
  • Page 20: Led Indicators

    Note: A crossover cable must be used when connecting from the uplink of another switch or a hub to the uplink port on the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch. LED Indicators The 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch has extensive LED indicators to facilitate monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Page 21: Rear Panel

    This indicator is green when the respective port is operating in full- duplex mode, and blinks yellow when collisions occur. Rear Panel The rear panel of the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch includes the power cable connector and the Duplex Mode Switch. Overview 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide...
  • Page 22: Duplex Mode Switch

    10/100 ports. When operating in full duplex mode, ports can transmit and receive simultaneously. Each 10Mbps port must be manually set to the proper duplex mode (half or full), but the switch can be set to auto-detect the duplex mode for ports 1 and 2 (the two 10/100Mbps ports).
  • Page 23: Installation

    Installation Site When installing the switch, choose a sturdy, level surface in a ventilated area that is dust free and away from heat vents, warm air exhaust from other devices and direct sunlight. Avoid proximity to large electric motors or other electromagnetic equipment.

  • Page 25: Connecting Power

    10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Connecting Power Power is supplied to the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch through an AC power cord. The AC power input voltage ranges from 100 to 240 VAC. A power cable is included with the device.

    To set for half-duplex, set the duplex switch down. To set either or both ports 1 and 2 to auto duplex mode detect, set the corresponding switch down. Figure 6 Setting the Duplex Mode Note: Full-duplex mode can only be used for connections servers, or network stations.
  • Page 29: Lan Microsegmentation

    10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch User’s Guide LAN Microsegmentation Perhaps the principal purpose for the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch is to microsegment an existing LAN to improve network latency rates and increase overall performance. The 100Mbps ports on the switch can be used to connect those segments which require greater throughput.
