CHAPTER 2: PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
This chapter describes the hardware features of the NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over
Ethernet Switch. Topics include:
• Front and back panels
• 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing RJ-45 ports
• SFP module bay
• LED descriptions
• Console port
Front and Back Panels
Figures 2-1 and 2-2 show the key components on the front and back panels of the NETGEAR Model
FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch.
The front panel contains LEDs, RJ-45 jacks, SFP module bays, and a console port. The back panel has a
standard AC power receptacle for accommodating the supplied power cord and a connector for a
redundant power supply.
Figure 2-1. Front and Rear Panel of the FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch
Figure 2-2. Rear Panel of the FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch
10/100 Mbps RJ-45 Ports
As Figures 2-1 and 2-2 show, the FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch has 24 10/100 Mbps
RJ-45 ports. These ports are auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps ports. When you insert a cable into an RJ-45 port,
the switch automatically determines the maximum speed (10 or 100 Mbps) and duplex mode (half- or fullduplex) of the attached device.
To simplify the procedure for attaching devices, all RJ-45 ports support Auto Uplink. This technology lets
you attach devices to the RJ-45 ports using either straight-through or crossover cables. When you insert a
cable into the switch’s RJ-45 port, the switch automatically:
• Senses whether the cable is a straight-through or crossover cable
Page 9 of 23
• Determines whether the link to the attached device requires a “normal” connection (such as when
connecting the port to a PC) or an “uplink” connection (such as when connecting the port to a
router, switch, or hub)
• After determining this information, the switch automatically configures the RJ-45 port to enable
communications with the attached device, without requiring user intervention. This Auto Uplink
technology eliminates the need for setting uplink connections or being concerned about whether
to use crossover or straight-through cables when attaching devices.
Figure 2-3. Warning! Do Not Create Redundant Paths between Network Devices
MiniGBIC/Twisted Pair Combo Ports
Port 25 and 26 are miniGBIC/twisted pair ports, meaning each of these ports can be connected through
either the miniGBIC or the RJ-45 interface. However, both port types cannot be used at the same time. If
both are plugged in, the fiber should be active and the copper should be inactive.
The miniGBIC bay accommodates a standard SFP module which has an SC connector that is compatible
with the IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX standard.
Page 10 of 23
LED Descriptions
The front panel of the NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch has LEDs that
provide a quick and accurate display of port speed, activity, PoE status, and duplex mode. Table 2-1

1. Attach the supplied mounting brackets to the side of the switch.
2. Insert the screws provided in the rack-mount kit through each bracket and into the bracket mounting
holes in the switch.
3. Tighten the screws with a #1 Phillips screwdriver to secure each bracket.
4. Align the mounting holes in the brackets with the holes in the rack, and insert two pan-head screws with
nylon washers through each bracket and into the rack.
5. Tighten the screws with a #2 Phillips screwdriver to secure the switch in the rack.
Figure 3-1. Attaching Mounting Brackets
Step 3: Checking the Installation
Before you apply power:
o Inspect the equipment thoroughly.
o Verify that all cables are installed correctly.
o Check routing to make sure cables are not damaged and do not create a safety hazard.
o Be sure all equipment is mounted properly and securely.
Step 4: Applying AC Power
NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch does not have an ON/OFF switch; the
only method of applying or removing AC power is by connecting or disconnecting the power cord. Before
you connect the power cord, select an AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch so you can easily
turn off power to the switch. After you select an appropriate outlet, use the following procedure to apply AC
power:
Page 14 of 23
1. Connect the female end of the supplied AC power adapter cable to the power receptacle on the back of
the switch.
2. Connect the 3-pronged end of the AC power adapter cable to a grounded 3-pronged AC outlet.
When you apply power, the Power LED on the switch’s front panel will be Amber as it conducts a Power
On Self Test (POST). After the switch passes the POST, the Power LED will change to Green and the
switch is functional and ready to pass data.
If the Power LED does not go on, check that the power cable is plugged in correctly and that the power
source is good. If this does not resolve the problem, refer to Appendix B, Troubleshooting
.
Step 5: Connecting Devices to the Switch
The following procedure describes how to connect devices to the switch’s network RJ-45 ports. Your
NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch contains Auto Uplink™ technology,
which allows you to attach devices using either straight-through or crossover cables.
Figure 3-2. Connecting Devices to the Switch
Connect each device to an RJ-45 network port on the switch’s front panel as shown in the figure above.
Use Category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector to make
these connections.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached device to 100 m
(328 ft)
The 24 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports of your NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet
Switch is capable of providing up to 15 watts of DC power to IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices,
thus eliminating the need to use an external power adapter to power them. This process is fully automatic.
When you plug a IEEE 802.3af compliant powered device into an RJ45 port, the NETGEAR Model
FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch will automatically detect the its presence and thereby
begin to feed power to it. If the network device does not support PoE, no power will be provided, and the
attached device will not be damaged in any way.
.
Step 6: Installing an SFP Module
The following procedure describes how to install an SFP Gigabit Ethernet module in the switch’s Gigabit
module bays. The Standard SFP Module is sold separately from the FSM7326P. If you do not want to
install an SFP module at this time, skip this procedure.
To install an SFP module:
Page 15 of 23
1. Insert the SFP module into the SFP module bay. Press firmly to ensure the module seats into the
connector.
2. After the switch has been configured for management (see Step 7
), use one of the management
interfaces (Web browser or console interface) to configure the port with the SFP module installed to the
SFP option.
To install additional Gigabit Ethernet modules, repeat this procedure.
Figure 3-3. Installing a Gigabit Ethernet Module into an FSM7326P
Step 7: Connecting to the Console Port to Manage the Switch (initial configuration)
To learn the IP address, you must first access the Command Line management via the console interface.
After you power up the switch for the first time, you can connect to it using a VT100/ANSI terminal or a PC,
Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation that is directly connected to the switch’s console port.
To connect a console to the switch:
1. Connect a VT100/ANSI terminal or a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation to the switch’s
console port, labeled Console, using the null-modem cable supplied with the switch. The supplied nullmodem cable has 9-pin connectors on each end.
2. If you attached a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation, start a terminal-emulation program:
• Microsoft Windows users can use HyperTerminal, which comes with the Windows operating
systems.
• Macintosh users can use ZTerm.
• UNIX users can use a terminal emulator such as TIP.
3. Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings:
• Baud rate: 9,600 bps
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: none
• Stop bit: 1
• Flow control: none
4. Press the return key, and the screen below should appear:
Page 16 of 23
Figure 3-4. Configuration through the console interface
The login name is “admin” and there is no password assigned. We strongly recommend that you enable an admin
password to secure access to the switch management function. Afte r you are logged in, the, the screen should show
(FSM7326P)> prompt. Enter “show sysinfo” to display the management CPU’s IP address. The switch is shipped
using DHCP by default to automatically receive its IP address from a DHCP server on your network. To manually set a
static IP address, you must first disable DHCP as follows:
(FSM7326P) >config network protocol none
Changing protocol mode will reset ip configuration.
Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n)y
After the system prompt returns, enter the follow ing command:
The example above uses “192.168.1.100” f or the IP address and “192.168.1.1” for the gateway IP address. You sh ould
substitute your own IP addresses in th e command line above.
If you want to use your Web browser or telnet to manage your switch, note the IP address on the Sy sinfo page. To
use your Web browser, simply type the IP addre ss in the URL address bar a nd press enter. If you want to use an
SNMP management application, you need to note the IP address and configure the SNMP settings in your switch so
that it will respond to SNMP requests. Th is configuration can be don e through either the consol e or Web browser GUI.
Page 17 of 23
Please refer to the User Guide for instructions on how to en able SNMP access.
Note: You need to know the IP address of the switch in order to use your browser or SNMP application to
manage the switch. The switch by default uses DHCP mode to assign its address. If you leave the switch
in the default DHCP mode, the IP address of your switch could change. You would have to reconnect to
the switch via the console port to discover the new IP address. Change the IP mode to Manual for a more
reliable connection. If you need help changing the IP mode, please refer to the User Guide on the
Resource CD.
To learn more about the managed features on your switch, refer to the User Guide on the Resource CD for
Layer 3 Managed Switches.
Step 8: Connecting a Redundant Power Supply to the Device
Your NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed Power over Ethernet Switch has a redundant power supply
connector in the back. You may choose to connect a DC to DC power supply to the switch to ensure that it
will not fail in case the primary power supply does. To connect an RPS to the switch, first make sure the
switch is turned off, and then connect the RPS to the switch as illustrated below. Once all connections are
completed, turn the switch back on.

APPENDIX B: TROUBLESHOOTING
This appendix provides information about troubleshooting the NETGEAR Model FSM7326P Managed
Power over Ethernet Switch.
Troubleshooting Chart
The table below lists symptoms, causes, and solutions of possible problems.
Table B-1. Troubleshooting Chart
Symptom Cause Solution
Power LED is off. No power is received Check the power cord connections at the
switch and the connected device.
Make sure all cables used are correct and
comply with Ethernet specifications.
Link LED is off or intermittent. Port connection is not
working.
File transfer is slow or
performance degradation is a
problem.
A segment or device is not
recognized as part of the network.
ACT LED is flashing continuously
on all connected ports and the
network is disabled
Half- or full-duplex setting
on the switch and the
connected device are not
the same.
One or more devices are not
properly connected, or
cabling does not meet
Ethernet guidelines.
A network loop (redundant
path) has been created (see
Figure 2-3).
Additional Troubleshooting Suggestions
Check the crimp on the connectors and make
sure that the plug is properly inserted and
locked into the port at both the switch and the
connecting device.
Make sure all cables used are correct and
comply with Ethernet specifications.
Check for a defective adapter card, cable, or
port by testing them in an alternate
environment where all products are functioning.
Make sure the attached device is set to auto
negotiate.
Verify that the cabling is correct. Be sure all
connectors are securely positioned in the
required ports. Equipment may have been
accidentally disconnected.
Break the loop by ensuring that there is only
one path from any networked device to any
other networked device.
If the suggestions in Table B-1 do not resolve your problem, refer to the troubleshooting suggestions
below:
Network Adapter Cards
Make sure the network adapter cards installed in the computers are in working condition and the software
driver has been installed.
Configuration
If problems occur after altering the network configuration, restore the original connections and determine
the cause by implementing the new changes, one step at a time. Make sure that cable distances, repeater
limits, and other physical aspects of the installation do not exceed the Ethernet limitations.

Switch Integrity
If required, verify the integrity of the switch by resetting it. To reset the switch, use the Tools> Reset
command or remove AC power from the switch and then reapply AC power. If the problem continues,
contact NETGEAR technical support. In North America, call 1-888-NETGEAR. If you are outside of North
America, please refer to the support information card included with your product.
Auto Negotiation
The 10/100/1000 Mbps ports negotiate the correct duplex mode and speed if the device at the other end of
the link supports auto negotiation. If the device does not support auto negotiation, the switch only
determines the speed correctly and the duplex mode defaults to half-duplex.
The gigabit port on the Gigabit module negotiates speed, duplex mode, and flow control, provided that the
attached device supports auto negotiation.
