Page 6: Introduction
1. Introduction Driven by recent advances in desktop computing technology, today’s network applications have grown speed, power and the ability to pro- cess information. To meet the demands of these more powerful applica- tions, the switch has been developed to alleviate congestion and im- prove performance on your Ethernet network. -
Page 7: Features
1.1 Features Designed for resolving congestion problems caused by bandwidth-hun- gry devices and bandwidth-intensive applications as well as a high num- ber of users, the switch not only adheres to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-T standards, but also features: •... -

Page 9: Installing The Switch
2. Installing the Switch The switch is designed to operate in workgroup environments without a complicated configuration procedure. It also features an auto-select 100- 240V, 50/60Hz 25W power supply unit, which works in most countries around the world. Before connecting the supplied power cord into the switch, check to see that the cord voltage and current rating conform to the standards of the country of operation. -

3. Unscrew and remove the slot cover. Figure 2-5 Remove the Slot Cover 4. Insert the module into the slot along the slot guide until it is fully seated. 5. Screw the module onto the unit securely. Figure 2-6 Insert the Module into Slot 6. -
Page 14: Setting The Configuration Switches
2.5 Setting the Configuration Switches The configuration switches (4 blocks) are located on the rear and illustrated as: Figure 2-7 Configuration Switches Each block consists of 6 DIP switches which are numbered 1 to 6 from left to right sequentially. Every three consecutive DIP switches are grouped and labeled with a port number individually as follows: PORT# SWITCHES... - Page 15 Auto-negotiation function enables the associated port to negotiate a common operation mode (speed and duplex type) with the device con- nected at the remote end of the link cable. The common operation mode is negotiated in the sequence as follows: When an operation mode is accepted by the remote device, the mode is used for the data transfer between the port and the connected device.

3. Making Network Connections 3.1 Network Switched Ports There are eight ports on the switch for connection to eight LAN seg- ments. Each segment is an independent shared network in one collision- domain. Figure 3-1 Network Ports All ports are 10/100Mbps-based dual-speed switched port. Each can support one connection to either a 10Mbps Ethernet segment or a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet segment. -
Page 17: 10Base-T And 100Base-Tx Connection
3.2 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Connection The RJ-45 connectors labeled 1X, 2X, ..., 8X are implemented as MDI-X type jacks. An MDI-X jack is designed with internal crossover function. It allows a connection to an end station using straight-through UTP cable. In addition to one MDI-X jack, Port #1 also has one extra MDI jack. Only one can be used at the same time. - Page 18 It is suggested to use straight-through UTP cables for all UTP connec- tions. The maximum length and UTP cable categories used for the con- nections to a 10BASE-T device and 100BASE-TX device are: CONNECTED DEVICE UTP CABLE USED & MAXIMUM LENGTH 10BASE-T device Cat.

3.3 100BASE-FX Connection As Port #8 module slot is installed with a 100BASE-FX fiber module, it can support a connection to a Fast Ethernet network segment through a fiber optic connection. Normally, a fiber module comes with two fiber connectors. One labeled Tx is used for transmission. The other one la- beled Rx is used for reception. -
