Introduction

The MIL-S1600 is a 16 port 10/100Base-TX switch that can be used to
build high-performance switched networks. The store-and-forward
architecture offers low latency for high-speed networking for workgroups
or departments in any business.

Figure 1-1. The MIL-S1600 switch

The MIL-S1600 has 16 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX Ethernet RJ-45
ports plus one extension slot for an optional one port 100Base-FX fiber
module enabling long-distance connectivity. The optional fiber modules
support single mode and multi-mode connectors to provide a way to
connect remote sites up to 2 Km (multi-mode) or 15 to 60Km (single­mode). Automatic MDI/MDIX enables connection to another switch or
workstation without changing cabling.

The MIL-S1600 is basically an unmanaged switch but it does supports a
few basic management functions using the console port. The switch does
not support SNMP or an IP address. The console management functions
include trunking, VLANs and port configuration.

Hardware Description

Front Panel

The Front Panel of the MIL-S1600 consists of 16 auto-sensing 10/100Base­TX Ethernet RJ-45 ports, a console port, and an extension slot for a 100Base­FX Fiber Module. The LED Indicators are also located on the front panel of
the switch.

Figure 2-1. The Front panel of the MIL-S1600

Note : MDI/MDIX allows you to connect to another switch or workstation
without regard to cabling type.

Console Port: The limited management functions are configured

through the Console Port. It requires a direct connection between the
switch and a PC with the provided console cable.

100FX Module ( Optional ) : There are 5 types of one port

100Mbps Fiber Modules available for the MIL-S1600. The connectors for
the 100FX Module are SC, ST, MT-RJ, VF-45 for multi-mode and SC in
single-mode. Using multi-mode fiber cabling the network can be extended
up to 2 kilometers. The distance for extending the network with single­mode fiber cabling is 15 to 60 kilometers. For more information see
Section 3 on Optional Modules.

Rear Panel

The 3-pronged power plug is located at the rear panel of the MIL-S1600
as shown in Figure 2-2. The switch has autosensing power in the range
of 100-240V AC, 50-60Hz.

Figure 2-2. The Rear Panel

Desktop Installation

Set the switch on a sufficiently large flat space with a power outlet
nearby. The surface where you put your switch should be clean, smooth,
level and sturdy.

Make sure there is enough clearance around the switch to allow
attachment of cables, power cord and to allow air circulation.

Attaching Rubber Feet

A. Make sure mounting surface on the bottom of the switch is grease

and dust free.

B. Remove adhesive backing from the rubber feet.

C. Apply the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the switch.

These footpads can prevent the switch from being affected by shock
or vibration.
