Chapter 1 Introduction  
1. Introduction  
Congratulations on your purchase of this Fast/Gigabit Ethernet  
Management Switch. This high performance management  
switch provides Ethernet ports to segment network traffics,  
extend Ethernet connection distance, and convert data packets  
between different transmission speeds.  
This switch utilizes stored-and-forward switching architecture  
that filters and forwards data after the complete data packet is  
received and examined to be free of errors. With one set of  
status LEDs for each individual port, the switch operation status  
can be easily monitored.  
All the Fast Ethernet ports support both Full and Half duplex  
mode which are able to provide up to 200Mbps(2000Mbps for  
Gigabit Ports) of bandwidth to the connected devices, with  
auto-negotiation providing the capability to connect to  
100/10Mbps(1000/100/10Mbps for Gigabit ports) network  
devices. It also supports backpressure and IEEE 802.3x  
advanced flow control capabilities that can reduce congestion  
and prevent packet loss.  
And it offers advance features:  
SNMP/Web-based Management: Provides a web browser  
to manage and monitor the switch.  
Bandwidth Control: Input and output rate control.  
VLAN: Port-based and Tag-based VLAN allow you to set  
virtual LANs within your network  
Trunking: Reduce the bottleneck between switches  
QoS: Two priority queues per port allow you to define  
which port has higher priority.  
802.1X: This switch supports port-based authentication  
protocol, IEEE 802.1X.  
6
 
In addition, all the ports support the MDI/MDI-X auto-detect  
function. That is to say, you can connect any device (including  
PC, Switch, Hub) to a port of this switch using a regular cable.  
The RJ-45 port will auto-detect and auto-switch to the correct  
MDI/MDI-X mode (do not need to use a specific uplink port or  
cross-over cable).

4. Hardware Description  
This section describes the hardware features of this Fast/Gigabit  
Ethernet Management Switch. For easier management and  
control of the switch, familiarize yourself with its display  
indicators and ports. All LEDs are located on the front panel of  
the switch. They serve the purpose of monitoring the operation  
and performance of the switch at a glance.

Operating Environment  
This management switch must be installed and operated  
within the limits of the specified operating temperature and  
humidity (see previous section on Specifications). Do not place  
objects on top of the unit or obstruct any vents at the sides of the  
unit. Do not position the unit near any heating source such as  
heaters, radiators, or direct exposure to sun. Do not expose the  
unit to water and or moisture. If necessary, use a dehumidifier to  
reduce humidity.  
Connecting to network devices  
1. All ports of this switch support the Auto-MDI/MDI-X  
function. That is to say, you can connect any device  
(including PC, Switch, Hub) to a port of this switch using a  
regular cable. The RJ-45 port will auto-detect and  
auto-switch to the correct MDI/MDI-X mode. (do not need  
to connect to a specific uplink port or cross-over cable)  
2. Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on  
the front panel, and connect the other end of the network  
cable to the RJ-45 port on the network device. Follow the  
same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports of the switch.  
Maximum length, using UTP cable, between the switch and  
connected device is 100 meters (300ft). Once the network  
cable is connected to both ends and the attached network  
device is powered on, the LNK/ACT LED should be lit.  
3. Make sure the wiring is correct. You need to use Category  
3/4/5 cable for 10Mbps operation or Category 5 cable for  
100Mbps connections.  
Connecting the power  
Plug the power cable into the internal three-pronged power plug.  
Connect it to an electrical outlet then turn on the switch.
