Switch Ports

The switch has 24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports and two dualpersonality ports (ports 23 and 24). Because the RJ-45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

Dual-personality ports use either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector, or a supported ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic connections. By default, the RJ45 connectors are enabled.

This switch is designed to be used primarily as a high-density wiring closet or desktop switch. With this switch you can directly connect computers, printers, and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and you can build a switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs, other switches, or routers. In addition, the switch offers network management capabilities.

LED Mode Select Button and Indicator LEDs

To optimize the amount of information that can be displayed for each of the switch ports, the ProCurve Switch 1800-24G uses a Mode LED for each port. The operation of this LED is controlled by the LED Mode Select button on the switch panel, and the current selection is indicated by the mode indicator LEDs near the button. Press the button to change from one mode to the next.

When the FDx (full duplex) indicator LED is on, the port Mode LEDs turn on for those ports that are operating at full duplex.

When the Speed indicator LED is on, the port Mode LEDs turn on for ports operating at 1000 Mbps. The port Mode LEDs are off for ports operating at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.

Switch Features

The features of the ProCurve Switch 1800-24G include:

24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports.

plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the network cables to active network devices and your switched network is operational.

IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI /MDI-X on all twisted-pair ports, meaning that all connections can be made using straight-through twisted-pair cables. Cross-over cables are not required, although they will also work. The pin operation of each port is automatically adjusted for the attached device: if the switch detects that a 10/100 Mbps switch or hub is connected to the port, it configures the port as MDI; if the switch detects that a 10/100 Mbps end-node device is connected to the port, it configures the port as MDI-X.

automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000address forwarding table.

automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for all 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices

the mini-GBIC ports always operate at full duplex. (1800-24G)

Warning

The ProCurve Switch 1800-24G device is easy to install. It comes with an accessory kit that includes the brackets for mounting the switch in a standard 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, and with rubber feet that can be attached so the switch can be securely located on a horizontal surface. The brackets are designed to allow mounting the switch in a variety of locations and orientations. This chapter shows how to install the switch.

Installing the Switch

Installation Procedure

W A R N I N G

Installation Procedure

1.Prepare the installation site (page 2-3). Please see below for some installation precautions.

2.Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-4).

3.Mount the switch (page 2-5).

4.Connect power to the switch (page 2-10).

5.Connect the network cables (page 2-10).

Installation Precautions

Follow these precautions when installing the switch.

The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable and/or falling over.

Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as possible, with the heaviest devices at the bottom and progressively lighter devices installed above.

For safe operation, do not install the switch with the back face of the switch (with the fan vents) facing upward.

Left side vents cannot be placed downward. (That is, the left side of the unit while facing the front.)

2-2

Installing the Switch

Installation Procedure

Installation Precautions (Continued)

Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the

C a u t i o n s

power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power source.

 

If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the switch, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch.

When installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the switch and should be easily accessible in case the switch must be powered off.

Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and overcurrent protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add together the ampere ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the switch and compare the total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the AC power connectors.

Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might exceed 40 ° C (104 ° F).

Ensure the air flow around the sides and back of the switch is not restricted.

1.Prepare the Installation Site

Be sure to follow the guidelines below to ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network:

Ethernet cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables with RJ-45 connectors, maximum length 100 meters (328 ft); Category 3 or better for 10Base-T, Category 5 or better for 100Base-TX, and Category 5, 5e, or 6 for 1000Base-T.

Fiber cable type: For 1000Base-SX mini-GBIC, 62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter, graded-index, multimode fiber-optic cables that are fitted with LC connectors. For 1000Base-LX and 1000Base-LH miniGBICs, single-mode cables fitted with LC connectors.

Protect the switch from radio frequency interference emissions.

Use electrical surge suppression.

Use safe connections with no damaged cables, connectors or shields.

Clearance Requirements

Orientation

 

 

 

Front

At least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic

 

cabling.

 

 

Back

At least 3.8 cm (1 1/2 inches) of space for the power cord and switch cooling.

 

 

Sides

At least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for cooling, except if the switch is installed in an

 

open EIA/TIA rack.

 

 

 

2. Verify the Switch Passes Self Test

 

Before mounting the switch, verify it is working properly by plugging it into a

 

power source and confirming that it passes self test.

 

 

N o t e

The switch does not have a power switch. It is powered on when the power

 

cord is connected to the switch and to a power source. For safety, the power

 

outlet should be located near the switch installation.

 

The switch automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100-240 volts and

 

either 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.

 

If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with

 

the switch, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety

 

agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark

 

is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch.

 

1. Connect the power cord supplied with the switch to the power socket on

 

 

the back of the switch, and then into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

Connect power cord to the power socket

2.Check the LEDs on the switch as described below.

Installing the Switch

Installation Procedure

Port Link/Act and

Mode LED

Power LED

When the switch is powered on, it performs its diagnostic self test. The self test takes approximately 20 seconds to complete.

Self Test LED Behavior:

During the self test:

The LEDs go on and off several times during phases of the self test.

When the self test completes successfully:

The Power LED remains on.

The Fault LED remains off.

The Speed LED remains on indicating the default LED mode.

The port LEDs on the front of the switch go into their normal operational mode:

If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link LEDs stay on and the Mode LEDs behave according to the mode selected. In the default mode (Speed), the Mode LEDs should be on for ports operating at 1000 Mbps and off for ports operating at 10 or 100 Mbps.

If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the Link and Mode LEDs will stay off.

If the LED display is different than what is described above the self test has not completed correctly. Refer to “Troubleshooting” for diagnostic help.

3. Mount the Switch

The switch can be mounted in these ways:

in a rack or cabinet

on a horizontal surface

on a wall
