Applications
PC Workgr oup
The Model FS105 switch is used as a desktop switch to build a small network that enables users to have 100 Mbps access to a file server. Compared with a hub, where the network bandwidth is shared among all users, the model FS105 switch provides dedicated 10 or 100 Mbps (megabits per second) bandwidth to each PC.
If a full-duplex adapter card is installed in the server or PC, a 200 Mbps connection is possible on the port where the server or PC is connected.

Auto Uplink™
The Auto Uplink technology that NETGEAR has included in this product will automatically sense whether the straight-through cable plugged into any port should have a ‘normal’ connection, e.g. connecting to a PC; or an ‘uplink’ connection, e.g. connecting to a router, switch, or hub. That port will then configure itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates the need to worry about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right connection.
Note:
Auto Uplink will compensate for setting uplink connections, and crossover or straight-through cables. Using Auto Uplink to create multiple paths between any two network devices will disable your network.

Installing the Switch
Set the switch up on a flat surface; you do not need any special tools. Be sure the switch is positioned with at least 2 inches of space on all sides for ventilation.
Connecting Devices
To connect devices to the switch:
1. Connect the devices to the 10/100 Mbps ports on the switch, using Category 5 UTP cable and an RJ-45 plug.
Note:
Ethernet specications limit the cable length between your PC or server and the switch to 328 feet (100 meters).
2. Connect one end of the DC power adapter cable to the power outlet on the rear panel of the switch and the other end of the power adapter cable to the wall outlet.
Rear Panel
The rear panel of the Model FS105 switch has a power adapter receptacle for the supplied power adapter.

Verifying Installation
When power has been applied to the switch:
The green Pwr (power) LED on the front panel is on.
The green Link LED on each connected port is on.
When the switch is connected and operating, refer to the table in LEDs for information about the LEDs and their activity.
Troubleshooting Information
Symptom
10M or 100M Link LED is off on a connected port.
Green 100M LED is off when operating in a Fast Ethernet network.
Green Link 10M or 100M LED is on and Green FDX LED is off when connected to a full-duplex network.
Yellow Collision LED is blinking excessively.
Cause Solution
Port connection is not functioning.
Make sure the attached device is powered and there is a proper UTP connection.
Make sure the network adapter card installed in the PC is working. Verify that the network adapter card is operating at the proper speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps).
Make sure the proper cable is installed. Check for miswired cable pairs or loose connectors.
For 100 Mbps operation, only Category 5 or better grade cable should be used. For 10 Mbps operation, Category 3 cable can be used.
Make sure the length of the UTP cable from the switch to the device does not exceed 328 feet (100 meters).
Port is operating in 10 Mbps
Make sure the adapter card is capable of and set for 100 Mbps operation if it is not auto-sensing.
mode.
Port is operating in half-duplex mode.
Make sure the connected device is capable of full-duplex transmission, using auto-sensing. The Model FS105 switch will not support a full-duplex link that is not advertised using auto-sensing.
Data collision is occurring on the port.
The port and switch might be functioning correctly. However, check the following to make sure that excessive collisions are normal (as in most Ethernet networks) and not caused by:
Incorrect cabling or connectors Wiring techniques Mismatched duplex operating mode
