Introduction

17-Port Modular Fast Ethernet Switch

High Port Count

The 17-Port Switch is a modular switch consisting of three expansion slots: two for 8­port 10/100BaseTX/FX module, and o ne for 1-port 10/100BaseTX or 100BaseFX
module. This allows the switch to provide up to 17 ports when all the three slots are fit
with modules.

Cost-Effective Migration

The 17-Port Switch is capable of integrating legacy 10Mbps networks with 100Mbps
Fast Ethernet networks. In addition, the 17-Port Switch provides an easy and affordable
solution for migrating from copper cabling to fiber connection when it is equipped with
suitable modules to provide both TX and FX ports.

Flexibility through Modules

Seeing fiber connection become popular while the fiber cabling in small business
environment is still not widespread, the 17-Port Switch is designed to deliver flexibility
through a wide variety of TX and FX modules. Most of the modules combine TX and
FX ports to provide more customization options.

<NOTE> Desired module shall be ordered separately.

Fiber-Connectivity

As a Fast Ethernet switch, the 17-Port Switch is specifically designed to meet the
demanding need for fiber. The switch provides up to 17 ports for 100BaseFX, multi­mode or single-mode fiber. For multi-mode fiber port, it allows SC, ST, MT-RJ, VF-45
or LC connector. For single-mode fiber port, it allows SC or ST connector. The fiber
ports allow maximum segment distance of 120 km when using single-mode fiber, and
therefore, the 17-Port Fiber Switch is an optimum solution for long distance
connection.

Basic Configuration Features

The 17-Port Switch supports port-based Virtual Local Area Networking (VLAN) and
MAC-based trunking technologies. Such advanced features bring network
administrators a powerful yet easy-to-use tool to reduce unnecessary traffic, efficiently
segment the network, and enhance network security.

Standards Compliant

The 17-Port Switch fully complies with IEEE802.3 10BaseT as well as IEEE802.3u
100BaseTX/FX standards.

Installation

This chapter gives step-by-step installation instructions for the 17-Port Switch.

Selecting a Site for the Switch

As with any electric device, you should place the switch where it will not be subjected
to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the
site you select should meet the following requirements:

- The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 113 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 45

degrees Celsius).

- The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing.

- Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC) standards

for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.

- Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes

on each side of the switch or the fan exhaust port on the rear of the switch.

- The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the switch.

Connecting to Power

y Connect the supplied AC power cord to the receptacle on the back of the switch, and

then plug it into a standard AC outlet with a voltage range from 100 to 240 Vac.

Figure 3: Rear view of the switch

12

Express Ethernet Switch LB9217A-R2 & Applicable Modules

Connecting to Your Network

Cabling

y First, ensure the power of the switch and end devices is turned off.

<NOTE> Always ensure that the power is off before any installation.

y Prepare cable with corresponding connectors for each type of port in use.

<NOTE> To connect two regular RJ-45 ports between switches or hubs,

you need a cross-over cable.

y Consult Table 3 below for cabling requirements based on connectors and speed.
y Connect one end of the cable to the switch and the other end to a desired device.
y Once the connections between two end devices are made successfully, turn on the

power and the switch is operational.

Cable Length

The maximum distance between a node and a directly connected switch port on a
100BaseFX network is 120 km using 10/125µm single-mode fiber optic cable. It is
capable of spanning at most 2 kilometers when use of 62.5/125µm multi-mode fiber­optic cable.

Module Installation

The installation for 8-port module and single-port module is the same. Take single-port
fiber module for example.

y Remove the module from the static-free container.
y Unscrew the cover plate of the expansion slot. The slot for

single-port module is located at the right side of the switch.
y Remove the plate and keep it for future use when you decide to

remove this module.

y With the power off, slide the module into the desired slot, following the internal

plastic guide rails.

y Once it is slid in fully, snap in the module to make a proper connection and fasten

the screws.

y Finally, turn on the power.
y Consult the following illustrations before installation.

<NOTE> Before you start with any installation, ensure that the power is off.

The module is not hot swappable.

Switch Configuration

This section explains the configuration of VLAN and trunking settings.

Setting up Console Port Connection

To configure your switch through the console port, it is necessary to first configure a
terminal emulation program. The HyperTerminal for Windows 95, 98, and NT is
suggested.

y First, check the switch, cables, and computers for proper installation before

configuration.

y Connect a PC or any VT100 compatible terminal to the console port on the back of

the unit using one RS232 serial cable. Turn on both end devices.

y Configure the baud rate and character format of the terminal or PC to match the

default settings shown below.

Port-based VLAN & Settings

The 17-Port Switch allows up to sixteen port-based VLAN domains. Assign each port
to a VLAN group or a couple of VLAN groups according to accessibility needs.

The VLAN setting: follow these steps to assign VLAN groups.

y Move the cursor to VLAN1 ~ 16 column
y Move the cursor and select a port
y Press [SPACE] and show V to the desired port
y Press [ENTER] to apply and save the setting

For example, here we have the port 17 assigned as routing (upli n k) p ort . The p ort 1 ~
port 16 are divided into five different VLAN groups (VLAN 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5).

VLAN 1: port 1, 2, 3
VLAN 2: port 4, 5, 6
VLAN 3: port 7, 8, 9
VLAN 4: port 10, 11, 12
VLAN 5: port 13, 14, 15, 16, 17

For example, the port 1, 2, and 3 (VLAN 1) can not communi cat e wi t h th e port 4, 5,
and 6 (VLAN 2).

The routing (uplink) port setting: follow these steps to have an assigned routing
(uplink) port. Then separate the rest each port to a different VLAN group. The rest each
port can only uplink through the assigned routing (uplink) port and can’t communicate
with each other.

y Enter [V] from the Main Menu
y

Move the cursor to a desired routing (uplink) port

y Press [SPACE] and show V to the desired routing (uplink) port

Press [ENTER] to apply and save the setting, then all the other ports will be assigned to each

y

different VLAN group and use the desired port as the routing (uplink) port

For example, here we have the port 17 assigned as routing (uplink) port. The port 1 ~
port 16 are divided into each different VLAN groups. And the user on the port 1 ~ port
16 can uplink through the port 17 only and can not communicate with each other.

MAC-based Trunking & Settings

Trunking is also called link aggregation, which serves as a shortcut to incr ease the
bandwidth on your network. Trunking is a method of physically linking togethe r
several ports to act as a single port with higher bandwidth. This functionality allows
scaling of bandwidth.

The 17-Port Switch supports trunking of up to 4 ports, either 2-port or 4-port. For a
100BaseTX/FX network, you will gain 400Mbps bandwidth when you trunk two ports,
each of 200Mbps. The more ports you trunk, the more bandwidth you gain.

Follow these steps to configure the

y Move the cursor to TRUNK column
y Move the cursor and select port 1
y Press [SPACE] and show T to port1 and port2
y Press [ENTER] to apply and save the setting

2-port trunking.

<NOTE> Can only choose port1 and port2 for 2-port trunking

Follow these steps to configure the 4
