    Switch. Identifying External Components. Describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the Switch. Connecting the Switch. Tells how you can connect the Switch to your Ethernet network. Appendix A, Technical Specifications. Lists the technical (general, physical and environmental, and performance) specifications of the Switch.
  • Page 5: Introduction

    NTRODUCTION This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching technology. Fast Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance networks.
  • Page 6: Switching Technology

    For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of eliminating the problem of chaining hubs beyond the “two- repeater limit.” A switch can be used to split parts of the network into different collision domains, making it possible...
  • Page 7: Features

    Designed with the small and medium network in mind, the DSS-5+ comes in a small and compact size. Whether used to connect 10Mb and 100Mb network segments and servers together, or to extend an existing switched network, it has the necessary speed to do the job.
  • Page 8 The Switch is an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch that offers solutions workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are: Auto-MDI (media dependent interface) port supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true ‘plug and play’ capability without the need of confusing crossover cables or crossover ports.
  • Page 9: Unpacking And Setup

    If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement. Setup The setup of DSS-5+ can be performed using the following steps: The surface must support at least 1.5 Kg for the Switch. The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Switch.

    DENTIFYING This section identifies all the major external components of the DSS-5+. Both the front and rear panels are shown followed by a description of each panel feature. The indicator panel is described in detail in the next chapter. Front Panel The figure below shows the front and rear panels of the DSS- 5+ .

    its power adapter into a power outlet will immediately power it on. Auto-MDI Jacks: These jacks supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true ‘plug and play’ capability without the need of confusing crossover cables or crossover ports. With the Auto-MDI function, you just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and no need to care if the end node is NIC (Network Interface Card) or switches and hubs.
  • Page 12: Connecting The Switch

    Category 5 must be used. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10Mb Ethernet or 100Mb Fast Ethernet NIC) should be connected to any of the 5 ports (1x - 5x) for the DSS-5+. The LED indicators for PC connection are dependent on the LAN card capabilities.
