2PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
2.1Models
The switchprovides Eight (8) Gigabit copper ports.Eachport is equipped with 2000 Mbps, Full-Duplex, CollisionFree
Bandwidth. It’s a multi-speed,versatilenetworkdevicethat c ombines Gigabit, FastEthernet, and Ethernet ports in a single
device.
2.2KeyFeatures
ƍ
Operates at m aximum packet forwardingratein 14880pps/10M,148800pps/100Mand1488000pps/1000M.
ƍ
Supports16K MAC address entries.
ƍ
Provides 1.5M bytes Packet Memory Buffer.
ƍ
Provides Flow-Controlmechanism to ensure zero packet loss. They are IEEE802.3xfor Full-Duplex operationand
Back-Pressure for Half-Duplex operation.
ƍ
Provides Store-and-Forward forwarding scheme.
ƍ
Provides 1 DB9 RS-232C consoleinterface configured as DTE for operation,diagnostics, status,andconfiguration
information.
ƍ
Provides Menu-Driven console interface from the console port by VT-100 compatible terminal.
ƍ
Provides Port-Mirroring function on port 8.
ƍ
Provides Link Aggregation function (2,3 or 4 p orts per link).
2.3.1 1000BASE-T
The switchis primarilyused for network backbone connections.
For the1000BASE-T TP port, it provides an Auto-Negotiationfunctionthat s enses for the attached device's maximum
operating speed and automatically sets the Switch to operate at that speed. Users only need to connect a network cable into
any TP port, and the Auto-Negotiation function will do the rest.
2.3.2 Cabling
1000Mbps- To transmitat1000Mbps requires Category5 TP cabling that must use all Four (4) pairs twisted-pair wire for
100Mbps- To transmitat 100Mbps requiresCategory 5 TP cabling.
10Mbps- When transmitting at 10Mbps Category3, 4 or 5 TP cabling with RJ-45 socketscan be used.
Note: Category 5 TP cable recommended whenever installing new cabling.
Totransmit at 1000Mbps requires Category 5 TP cable using Four (4) pairsTwisted-Pairwire.
2.4.3 ConsolePort
The consoleportinterface conforms to the RS-232 electrical specification.This interface supports asynchronous data of Eight
(8) databits,One(1) stop bit, and no parity bit. The unit only operates at38400bpsrates with RS-232 cable in system
configure.

4HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
4.1Prior to Installation
Beforeinstalling the Switch and connectingnetwork devices, it is importantto plan the network's layout. Things you should
considerinclude:
ƍ
DedicatedBandwidth: File servers and other high-traffic hardware improve their performance if they have their own
dedicated 10Mbps, 100Mbps,or1000Mbpsbandwidth.
ƍ
Full-Duplex: Determine which devicessupport Full-Duplex connections.
ƍ
Fast Ethernet& Gigabit Ethernet: Make sure rules for cable lengths and categories are followed. 100BASE-TX and
1000BASE-Thave the same rules for cable and distance.
ƍ
Auto-Negotiation: Devices withdifferent speeds may be easily swapped when the other end of the cable is fixed to a port
with Auto-Negotiation.
4.2Half- and Full-Duplex
The Switchsupports both Half- and Full-Duplexmodesfor10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. But the 1000BASE-Tonlysupports
Full-Duplex mode.
ƍ
In Half-Duplex mode: Datacannotbe transmitted and received at the same time.Attached devicesmust finish transmitting
data before they can receive data.
ƍ
In Full-Duplex mode: Data can be transmittedandreceived at th e s ame time.
However:
ƍ
Full-Duplex transmission is only possible between two devices with a dedicated link (e.g., Switch-Switch, Switch-PC)
ƍ
Bothdevicesmust have Full-Duplex capability
ƍ
Bothdevicesmust b e set to Full-Duplex(e.g.Auto-Negotiation – Auto-Negotiation, Non-Auto-Negotiation to
Non-Auto-Negotiation)
The 100BASE-TX/10BASE-Tor1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX/10BASE-Tports on the S witch detect and set the line's operating
modebyusing theirAuto-Negotiation function.
4.3Auto-Negotiation
Every1000/100/10Mbps speedportontheseSwitches has a built-in "Auto-Negotiation" function.This technology
automatically sets the best possible bandwidth as soon as a connection is established with another network device (usually at
Power“On” or Reset).This is capabilityis achievedvia the Switch’sAuto-Negotiation function that automatically detects the
modes and speeds the second (attached) device is capable of.
Evaluating Auto-Negotiation Capability:
if attached device is: the Switch will automatically set its TP ports to operate at:
1000Mbps
with Auto-Negotiation
100Mbps
noAuto-Negotiation
100Mbps
with Auto-Negotiation
10Mbps
noAuto-Negotiation
10Mbps
with Auto-Negotiation
Note: If the attached device is set to a fixed mode (ex: Forced Full-Duplex) it will not operate as an Auto-Negotiation device.
2000Mbps (1000BASE-T, Full-Duplex)
Note:Almost all 1000Mbps devicesonly operatein Full-Duplexm ode.
EveryEthernet data packet includesboth s ource and destination addresses. This Six (6) bytes IDis calledtheMAC (Media
AccessControl) Address. It supports16 K MAC address.
The model can automatically learn and store MAC addresses. However, the MAC address table is volatile: it disappears when
the Switch is powered “Off” or reset.
Note:When the network needs reconfiguration, we recommend to restart the Switch first. After all nodes have been moved,
Remove the power cord and re-attach it to rebuild the internal MAC address table.

The Switch has a smart function that you can use to manage your local area network (LAN) more effectively. You can also use
the default setting to operate the Switch as a dumb switch.
If you want to use smart function, install the Switch as below:
ƍ
Usethe“RS-232”connectortoconnect theSwitchto acomputer. ConnectOne(1) cable end to the Switch, andconnectthe
otherendto the computer’s“COM1”or“COM2”port.
Note: Ifyour Windowsprogram doesn’t have a hyper terminal, you have to install it first.
ƍ
Power“ON”theSwitch
ƍ
Executethe “HyperTerminal” program:
Start Menu ! Application Program ! Communication ! Hyper Terminal
ƍ
Setup the connection content of Hyper Terminal:
ƍ
In connection tag, select which “COM” port is used to connect PC and the Switch.
ƍ
Thenpressthe “SETUP” button, set “Bitspersecond”to38400, “Data bits” to 8,“Parity”toNone,“Stopbits”to1,“Flow
control” to None.

7.6VLAN Configuration
The VLAN Configuration sets up the VLAN configuration of this switch.T he Switch supports 32 VLANs in f our pages. Each
VLANcanhave an ID with range 1-4094, 0 and 4095 arestandard reservation.Member set in the same VLAN can be
untaggedor tagged. Incoming untagged packet will be assigned Port VID of that port.Following is the configurationscreen for
VLAN function.
Each VLAN has a VLAN ID and a list of members. For each VLAN, a letter is used for specific port to represent the relation of
that port to the VLAN.
Initially all ports are PVID 1. To add a new VLAN, press the <Add> Command.The f ollowing screen appears:
Toadd a new VLAN,input thenew VLAN ID, edit the member set and untag set of this VLAN. Press <OK> to completethis
setting.
When you want to modify existed VLAN configuration, just press <enter> when cursor is on that VLAN. Display will enter
Modify VLAN. Here user can use arrow key to move to target position thatneedstobe modified. VLAN can only be deleted at
this moment. A confirmation message appears on status bar. Press <Y/N> to complete process.
Move to <Config> and press <enter> activates the new VLAN setting and stays in this screen. Move to <Return> and press
<enter> completes modification and returns to the VLANConfiguration screen.

The SmartSwitchhas 4 priority queuesper port.Each framecanbe sent via high or low priority queuedependingonthe
prioritysetting and the tag value of it.
Usercaninputanynumber between0~7atl eft-side “Tag” fieldt o assign tag value to eachport.These defaulttagssettings are
only for thosepackets without tag.After these packets are received, these default tags are appended into these packets. For
originallytagged frames, they haveno effect.
Atrightleftpartof this screen, the mapping oftagvalue to actual priorityaredefined here by enter 0~3 number to“queue”field.
