2 PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
2.1 Models
The Switch is a multi-speed, versatilenetwork devicec ombining both standard and"Big-Pipe" portsunder the samehood. The Switch is a twenty-four (24) 100/10MbpsRJ-45 UTP/STPports switch.
2.2 KeyFeatures
ƍ
Twenty-four(24) 100/10Mbps Switch ports.
ƍ
Store-and-Forward technology.
ƍ
Auto-Negotiationsupport for eachTP port.
ƍ
IEEE802.3x Flow-Control support for Full-Duplex operation.
ƍ
Back-Pressure support for Half-Duplexoperation.
ƍ
Bridging capability for 100Mbps and10Mbps segments.
ƍ
All ports supportAuto-MDIXfunction.
2.3 Front Panel
For19 inches case
2.3.1 100/10MbpsTP Ports Each100/10Mbps TPport provides anAuto-Negotiation function that senses for the attacheddevice's maximum operating speed and automatically sets the Switch to operate at that speed. Users only need to connect a network device into any TP port.
2.3.2 Cabling
10Mbps- When transmitting at10Mbps Category3, 4 or 5 TP cabling withRJ-45 socketscan be used. 100Mbps-Totransmit at100Mbps requires Category 5 TPcabling.
Note: Category 5 TPcable is recommended wheneverinstalling newc abling.
2.3.3 Status LEDs The Switches comewith a completerange of LEDs.The table belowlists each LEDs name, color and a brief description of its function.

2.4 Rear Panel
For19 inches case
2.4.1 Power Socket The Power Socketisdesignedto be used with the power cord includedin the productpackage.
ƍ
Attach the female end of the cord to the power connector on the back panel.
ƍ
Attach the male endof the cord to a grounded power outlet.
2.4.2 Fan Note: Please keep the fan area clear, so that the cooling function is not impaired.

ƍ
Place the Switch on a clean, flat desk or tabletop close to a power outlet.
ƍ
Plug in all network connections and the power cord.
ƍ
Turn the power switch to "On".
3.2 Rackmount placement
ƍ

4 HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
4.1 Prior to Installation
Beforeinstalling theSwitch 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 or100Mbps bandwidth.
ƍ
Full-Duplex: Determinewhich devicessupport Full-Duplexconnections.
ƍ
Fast Ethernet: Makesure rules for cablelengthsand categoriesare followed.
ƍ
Auto-Negotiation: Devices with different speeds may be easily swapped when the other end of the cableis fixed to a port
with Auto-Negotiation. Note: If you areusing thelast port’s CrossoverT P connector, youc annot use thelast port’sregular connector.If you useboth of the last port's TP connector’s at the same time your Switch will not operate properly.
4.2 Half- and Full-Duplex
The Switch supportsboth Half- and Full-Duplexmodes for10B ASE-T and 100BASE-TX.
ƍ
In Half-Duplex mode: Datacannot be transmitted andreceived atthe same time. Attachedd evices mustfinish transmitting
data before they can receive data.
ƍ
In Full-Duplex mode: Data can be transmitted and receivedat the same time. However:
ƍ
Full-Duplex transmission is only possible between two devices with a dedicated link (e.g., Switch-Switch, Switch-PC)
ƍ
Bothdevices must have Full-Duplex capability
ƍ
Bothdevices must be set toFull-Duplex (e.g.Auto-Negotiation – Auto-Negotiation, Non-Auto-Negotiation to
Non-Auto-Negotiation) The 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T portson the Switch detectand set the line's operating modeby using their Auto-Negotiation function.
4.3 Fast Ethernet
100BASE-TXis called"F ast Ethernet". InF ast Ethernet datatravels ten times faster (100Mbps) than in traditional Ethernet (10Mbps). Belowis a list of the cable types and connectors supportedby the Switch for 10BASE-Tand 100BASE-TXnetworks.
Port Type CableType Connector 10BASE-T Category 3, 4 or 5 TP RJ-45 100BASE-TX Cat.5 TP RJ-45
Note: Ifyour 10BASE-Tnetwork currentlyuses Category 5TP cabling, you can instantly upgradethe network to a 100BASE-TXnetwork bychanging network devices.
4.4 Auto-Negotiation
Every100/10Mbps dual speed port on theS witch has a built-in"Auto-Negotiation" function. This technology automatically setsthe best possiblebandwidth ass oon as a connectionis established with anothernetwork device. (Usually at Power “On” or Reset.) This capability is achieved via theSwitch’s Auto-Negotiation functionthat automaticallydetectsth e modes and speedsthe second (attached) deviceis capable of. Evaluating Auto-Negotiation Capability:
If attached device is: The Switch Will Automatically Set Its TP Ports to 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.
4.5 MAC Address Table
EveryEthernet data packet includesboth source and destination addresses. This six(6) bytes ID iscalledthe MAC (Media AccessControl) Address. The Switch 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 thenetwork needsr econfiguration,we recommend turningoff the powerfirst. After all nodes haveb een moved, turn the Switch back "On" to rebuild the internal MAC address table.
Operate At: 100Mbps(100BASE-TX, Half-Duplex)
200Mbps(100BASE-TX, Full-Duplex) 10Mbps(10BASE-T, Half-Duplex)
20Mbps(10BASE-T, Full-Duplex)
