The voltage and cur r ent rat i ng of the c ab le s h ou l d be gre at er t han the ratings marked on the product.
viii
To help prevent elec tric sh ock, plug th e system and per ipheral po wer cables into proper ly grou nded electr ical outlets. These cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or rem ove the ground ing prong from a cable. If you must use an extension cab le, use a 3-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the extens ion cable or po wer s trip d oes not ex ceed 80 per cen t of the am per e ratings lim it for the extension cable or power strip.
To help protect your s ystem from sudden, transient increas es and decreases in electrical po wer, use a sur ge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Position system c ables and po wer cables c arefull y; route cab les so that t he y cannot be step ped on or t ripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site modifications. Always follow your local/national wiring rules.
When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-pluggable power supplies, if offered with your system, observe the following guidelines:
Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to the power supply. Unplug the power cable before removing the power supply. If the system has multiple sources of power, disconnect power from the system by unplugging all power cables from the power supplies.
Move products with car e; ensure that all c asters and/or stabi lizers are firm ly connected to the sys tem. Avoid sudden stops and uneven surfaces.

General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products

Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also, refer to the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific caution statements and procedures.
Systems are considere d to be components in a rack. T hus, "component" refers to an y system as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
Before working on the r ack, mak e sure that the stabili zers are secured to the rack , extended to the flo or, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
Use caution when pressing the component rail rele ase latches and sliding a c omponent into or out of a rack;
the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
After a component is ins erted into the rac k, caref ully extend the rail int o a lock ing position, and the n slide th e component into the rack.
Do not overload the AC s upply branch circuit that provides power to t he rack. The total rack load s hould not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
NOTE: All electrical wiring must comply with applicable local, regional or national codes and practices.
ix
CAUTION: Never defeat t he ground conductor or operate the e quipment in the absence of a suitably installed grou nd conductor. C ontact the appr opriate electr ical inspectio n authorit y or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
CAUTION: The system chassis must be positive ly grounded to the rack cabinet frame. Do not attempt to connect power to the system until grounding cables are connected. A qualified electrical inspector must inspect com pleted power and s afety ground wiring. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground cable is omitted or disconnected.

Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your bo d y before you touch any of the elec tronic components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
1. When unpacking a static-sensitive component f rom its shipping carton, do not rem ove the component from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to install the component in your system. Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
2. When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
3. Handle all sensitive com ponents in a static-saf e area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads, workbench pads and an antistatic grounding strap.

Gigabit Ethernet Technology Switch Description Features Ports Front-Panel Components LED Indicators Rear Panel Description Side Panel Description Gigabit Combo Ports
The DGS-3700 Series are layer 2 Gigabit Ether net switches an d members of the D-Link Switch fam ily. The following manual describes the installation, m aintenance and conf igurations concerni ng the DGS-3700-12 and DGS-3700-12G switches. Please tak e note that if th is dev ice was purchased outside of Europ e, certain cosm etic diff erences bet ween the actual switch and images in th is document will b e apparent to t he reader, such as t he faceplate and the manual cover.
NOTE: For the remainder of this m anual, the DGS-3700-12 and DGS-3700-12G switches will be referred to as simply the Switch or the DGS-3700 Series.

Gigabit Ethernet Technology

Gigabit Ethernet is an ext ension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet ut ilizing the same packet struc ture, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and a one hundred-fold increase over 10Mbps Ethernet. Since it is compatible with all 1 0Mb ps and 100 Mbps Eth ernet en viro nments, Gigabit Ethern et pro vi des a s tr a ightf or war d up gr ade without wasting a company's existing investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel.
The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet are essential to coping with the network bottlenecks that f requently develop as com puters and their busses get faster and m ore users using applica tions that generate more tr aff ic. U pgr adi ng key components, such as your backbone and servers to G ig ab it Eth ernet c a n gr e atly improve network response times as well as significantly speed up the traffic between your sub networks.
Gigabit Ethernet enables fast optical fiber c onnections to support vi deo conferencing, complex imaging, and sim ilar data-intensive applicat ions. Likewise, since dat a transfers occur 10 tim es faster than Fast Ethernet, ser vers outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC's are able to perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time.
In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet is the most cost-effective method to take advantage of today and tomorrow's rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking technologies.

Switch Description

The DGS-3700 Series is e quipped with unshielded t wisted-pair (UTP) cable ports providing de dicated 1 0 or 100 M bps bandwidth. The DGS-3700-12 Switch has 12 UTP ports and Auto MDI-X/MDI-II convertible ports that can be used for uplinking to another switch. These ports can be use d for connecting PCs, pri nters, servers, hubs, routers , switches and other network ing devices. The dual spee d ports use standard twisted-pair c abling and are ideal for segmenting networks into sm all, conne c ted s ub net wor k s for super ior per f ormance. Each 10/100/1000BASE-T port can support u p to 200 Mbps of throughput in full-duplex mode. In addition, the S witch has 4 SF P com bo with 10/ 100/ 1000 BASE -T ports. Thes e four -gigab it com bo ports ar e idea l for connecting to a server or network backbone. The DGS-3700-12G contains twelve 1000Mbps SFP (Small Form Factor Portable) ports, in addition to four 1000BASE-T located on th e front panel. T he SFP combo ports are to b e used with f iber-opt ical transceiver cabling in order to uplink vari ous other network ing devices for a gi gabit link that m ay span great distances. T he SFP ports can also support full-dup lex transmissions, have auto-negotiation and can b e used with DEM-210 (100FX -LC), DEM-211 (100FX-LC), DEM-310GT (1000BASE-LX), DEM-311GT (1000BASE-SX), DEM-312GT2 (1000BASE-SX), DEM­314GT (1000BASE-LH), D EM-31 5GT (1000 B AS E-ZX ), DEM-330T /R (WDM Transceiver) and the DEM-331T/R (WDM Transceiver) transceivers. These ports are referred to as “combo” ports. That means both the SFP ports and the 1000BASE-T ports are numbered the same and cannot be used simultaneously. Attempting to use the ports simultaneously will cause a link down status f or the 1000B ASE-T ports. SFP ports will alw ays have pri ority ov er these 1000BASE-T ports. These Switches enable the network to use some of the most demanding multimedia and imaging applications concurrently with other user applications without creating bottleneck s. The built-in console interface can be used to configure the Switch's settings for priority queuing, VLANs, and port trunk groups, port monitoring, and port speed.
