Page 9: Product Overview
1 Product Overview Product Overview Introduction 16× 10/100Mbps ports Fast Ethernet Switch with Per-port VLAN function Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch is an auto-sensing and auto-negotiating 10/100ABSE-TX Fast Ethernet Switch with VLAN and Priority capability. Its sixteen 10/100Mbps station ports provide 10/100Mbps connections to Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network. Live-FSH16T+’s unique switching fabric provides full wire speed for all ports. -
Page 10: Active Flow Control
1 Product Overview Active Flow Control Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch implements in full duplex mode a flow control that is compliant with the IEEE 802.3x standard. While in half duplex mode, it employs an optional Back Pressure Flow Control to stall the incoming data when port buffers are saturated. With this flow control mechanism, it can be ensured that frames dropped during transmission are reduced to a minimum. -
Page 11: Table Maintenance Via Signaling
1 Product Overview as Internet connection, servers, or connection to another switch. Table Maintenance via Signaling When an end-station broadcasts its first frame, the switch resolves the end-station’s attached port with its VLAN membership in cached address tables. As VLAN membership changes, these address tables can be manually updated by a system administrator at a management console. -

3 Installation of the Switch Installation of the Switch Quick Installation Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch is fully compliant with 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet standards. Live-FSH16T+ also features VLAN function. The VLAN function is primarily designed as an ideal solution to enhance your workgroup/corporate network performance with instant connectivity and workgroup security. -
Page 17: Installation On Wall
3 Installation of the Switch Installation on Wall Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch can be mounted on a wall with wall anchors and screws. To mount the Switch on wall, please follow the steps below: Drill two holes, the distance between both of which should be 9 cm (such as the illustration below). -
Page 18: Fig. 3-3 10/100Base-Tx Pin Assignments For Rj-45 Connector
3 Installation of the Switch Under most conditions, the 16 station ports on the Switch accept normal, straight-through cables, i.e., standard UTP/STP cables, which are the only ones that can be used with a RJ-45 connector interface. Normally, 10BASE-T networks require a straight-through Cat. 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP cabling system. The cabling system could be found in most existing Ethernet network installations. -
Page 19: Connecting To Power
3 Installation of the Switch Connecting to Power Live-FSH16T+ is accompanied with an external power adapter unit, which is specifically designed for the line voltage and the type of AC outlet used in your location. This power adapter provides the voltage, amperage, and polarity required by the Switch (7.5V @1.5A, inside positive, outside negative) and is outfitted with the correct type of barrel connector for the DC power jack on the rear... -

4 Expanding your Network Expanding Your Network Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch is primarily designed as a central switching device to manage your workgroup/departmental traffic within Ethernet/Fast Ethernet. Its built-in VLAN function offers instant connection without further administration efforts. Furthermore, its secure VLAN feature offers security for virtual workgroups. With your existing Ethernet/Fast Ethernet infrastructure, you can very easily connect, expand or migrate to virtual workgroup computing in an Ethernet/Fast Ethernet environment. -

4 Expanding your Network Connecting to another Switch/Hub Straight-through Cable Connection for Switch-to-Switch/hub Connection Use a straight-through cable for the connection made through the station port of Live-FSH16T+ to any station port of the other switch/hub. Since Live-FSH16T+ Switch is capable of auto-crossing over by its Auto-MDI and Auto-MDI-X function, you don’t have to use a crossover cable such as is usually required for this kind of switch-to-switch/hub connection with other switch. -
Page 22: Transmission Modes
4 Expanding your Network Transmission Modes Station Ports (10/100BASE-TX Transmission) All 10/100Mbps station ports of Live-FSH16T+ Fast Ethernet Switch utilize auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new connection. This means, if auto-negotiation is supported on both ends of the connection, the Switch is initiated to negotiate for one of the following transmission modes: •... -
Page 23: Virtual Workgroups
4 Expanding your Network disadvantages of routing and a reduction in the cost of moves and changes in the network. Virtual Workgroups One of the more ambitious VLAN objectives is the establishment of the virtual workgroup model. With full VLAN implementation across the enterprise network, members of the same department or section can all appear to share the same VLAN with most of the network traffic staying within the same VLAN broadcast domain. -
Page 24: Security
4 Expanding your Network Fig. 4-2 Routing between VLANs through a layer-3 Switch/Router Security The ability of VLANs to create firewalls can also satisfy more stringent security requirements and thus replace much of the functionality of routers in this area. This is primarily true when VLANs are implemented in conjunction with private port switching. - Page 25 4 Expanding your Network These resources are normally servers, but could also include printers, routers providing WAN access, workstations functioning as gateways, and so forth. The amount of VLAN overlap in the infrastructural model is minimal, involving only servers rather than user workstations making VLAN administration relatively straightforward.
