1. Unpacking Information
The device is a powerful, high-performance Fast Ethernet switch, with all 24 ports capable of 10 or 100Mbps auto-negotiation operation (NWay), which means the switch could automatically negotiate with the connected partners on the network speed and duplex mode. It is ideal for micro-segmenting large networks into smaller, connected subnets for improved performance, enabling the bandwidth demanding multimedia and imaging applications. Moreover, the 10/100Mbps auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate 10Mbps to 100Mbps network with no pain. Compared to the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbp s networks, the switch delivers a dedicated 10/100Mbps connection to every attached client with no bandwidth congestion issue. This switch also supports auto MDI / MDI-X function. Each port could be used to connect to another switch or hub with no crossover RJ-45 cable.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all the network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under full-duplex mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur simultaneously without causing collisions as well as double the network bandwidth.
The switch is plug-n-play without any software to configure and also fully compliant with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the rich diagnostic LEDs on the front-panel can provide the operating status of individual port and whole system.

3. Station Connection
Connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one RJ-45 connector into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the other RJ-45 connector into the station’s network adapter. Power on the switch and then system is ready. For cable selection, refer to the following table.

Station Connection
In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to connect another switch with straight or crossover cable. As all the ports support auto MDI / MDI-X function, using a straight cable to make a switch-to-switch connection is allowed.
For cable selection, refer to the following table
Network Speed Cable Type Max. Length
10Mbps 100Mbps
Rack-Mount
The switch may standalone, or may be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Rack mounting produces an orderly installation when you have a number of related network devices. The switch is supplied with two optional rack mounting brackets and screws. These are used for rack mounting the unit.
