Chapter 1 Introduction

MIL-S1000 switches are multi-speed network devices
combining Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet
capabilities in a single compact, rack-mountable cabinet.
Combining 10Mbps Ethernet, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in one unit allows these
switches to unclog existing LANs and provide a path to
efficient, high-speed networking.

The MIL-S1000 switch is a combination of a 4-slot host
cabinet which accepts 4 different media modules and One
RS-232 port for SNMP(Optional). A maximum configuration
of 32 x 10/100Base-Tx switched ports can be achieved
using 4×8 port 10/100Base-Tx modules. In the same way,
a maximum configuration of 32×10/100Base-TX or
16×100Base-FX ports or 4x 1000Base-SX can be
accommodated in the host cabling. Any of the above
modules can be integrated to give up to many different
configurations.

Device Description, Features and Capabilities

MIL-S1000 Front and Rear Panels

This section describes the features on the front and rear
panels of the MIL-S1000 unit.

Figure 1-2.

Figure 1-3.

All LED status indicators are located on the FRONT panel
of the switches. They provide a real-time indication of
system and operational status. The ports for connections to
other devices and networks are also on the front panels,
along with the crossover switches. The following sections
provide descriptions of the LED indicators and ports.

Explanation

The red power indicator is illuminated
when power is provided to the switch and
the switch is turned in the ON position.

Green Link/Activity indicators are
illuminated when the switch detects a
connection to that port. The indicator
blinks when data is transmitted over the
network connected to that port.
When a port is not connected, the
indicator is off.

Red Full Duplex/Col indicators
are illuminated when that port is
in full duplex mode. The indicator
is off when that port is in half
duplex mode.

When a collision occurs on the network
connected to a port, that Full Duplex/Col
indicator blinks.
Green 100Mbps indicators are illuminated
when the port is operating in 100Mbps
mode. The indicator is off when the port is
operating in 10Mbps mode.

" Power Port

The power port accepts the power plug.

" Power Switch

The power switch, located on the rear panel, controls the
power supply.

8 ports 10/100Base-TX Module

Figure 1-4.

When installed into a MIL-S1000 switch, the 10/100Base­TX Module provides 8 10/100Mbps Switch ports which can
connect the MIL-S1000 to a 10Mbps or 100Mbps switch or
end station.

8 Ports 10/100Base-Tx Module Features

" 8 10/100Base-TX N-Way Switch ports.

" Conforms to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T and IEEE 802.3u

DIP Switch with Link Mode

The 8 port 10/100Base-TX module provides dip switch for
1 to 4 port to adjust link mode with other network devices.
Another 4 ports use auto-negotiation protocol only. There
are three type of link mode can be chosen, Auto­negotiation, 100Mbps/Full duplex and 10Mbps/Full duplex.

If you adjust to auto-negotiation, then the DIP for 100Mbps
and 10Mbps is not effective. If you adjust to Full duplex,
then the DIP for 100Mbps and 10Mbps is effective.

2 ports 100Base-FX Fiber Module

Figure 1-6.

When installed into a MIL-S1000 switch, this Module
provides a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet fiber port which can be
used to:

# Connect the Switch to the backbone of your network;

that is, to a basement switch, hub or router

# Connect the Switch to a 100Mbps server or end-station

An ST, SC, MT-RJ or VF-45 connector provides the link to
the multi-mode fiber cabling and two indicators show the
status of the Module at-a glance. A DIP-switch sets the
operating mode to half duplex or full duplex (default).
