same switch and automatically distinguishes the speed of incoming connection.
This section describes the hardware features of FNSW-1600P. For easier
management and control of the Switch, familiarize yourself with its display
indicators, and ports. Front panel illustrations in this chapter display the unit LED
indicators. Before connecting any network device to the FNSW-1600P, please read
this chapter carefully.
2.1 Front Panel
The Front Panel of the FNSW-1600P PoE Fast Ethernet Switch consists of 16 x
Auto-Sensing 10/100Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 Ports. The LED Indicators are also
located on the front panel of the FNSW-1600P.

The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work till
it is powered. If your networks should active all the time, please
consider using UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device.
It will prevent you from network data loss or network downtime.
In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also help
to protect your FNSW-1600P from being damaged by unregulated
surge or current to the FNSW-1600P or the power adapter.

3. Hardware Installation
Start up
Please refer to the followings for your cabling:
10/100Base-TX
All 10/100Base-TX ports come with Auto-Negotiation capability. They automatically
support 100Base-TX and 10Base-T networks. Users only need to plug a working
network device into one of the 10/100Base-TX ports, and then turn on the FNSW1600P. The port will automatically runs in 10Mbps, 20Mbps, 100Mbps or 200Mbps
after the negotiation with the connected device.
Cabling
Each 10/100Base-TX ports use RJ-45 sockets -- similar to phone jacks -- for
connection of unshielded twisted-pair cable (UTP). The IEEE 802.3 / 802.3u Fast
Ethernet standard requires Category 5, 5e UTP for 100Mbps 100Base-TX. 10Base-T
networks can use Cat. 3, 4, 5 (see table below). Maximum distance is 100meters
(328 feet).
Port TypeCable TypeConnector
10Base-TCat. 3, 4, 5, 2-pairRJ-45
100Base-TXCat. 5, 5e UTP, 2-pairRJ-45
Any Ethernet devices like hubs / PCs can connect to the FNSW-1600P by using
straight-through wires. The 16-10/100Mbps ports are auto-MDI/MDI-X can be used
on straight-through or crossover cable.
3.1 Desktop Installation

at front panel of the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch.
B. Connect the other end of the cable to the network devices such as printer
servers, workstations or routers…etc.
Connection to the Switch requires UTP Category 5, 5e, 6 network
cabling with RJ-45 tips. For more information, please see the
Cabling Specification in Appendix A.
Step 5: Supply power to the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch.
A. Connect one end of the power cable to the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch.
B. Connect the power plug of the power cable to a standard wall outlet.
When the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch receives power, the Power LED should remain
solid Green.
3.2 Rack Mounting
To install the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch in a 19-inch standard rack, follow the
instructions described below.
Step 1: Place your PoE Fast Ethernet Switch on a hard at surface, with the front
panel positioned towards your front side.
Step 2: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch
with supplied screws attached to the package. Figure 3-2 shows how to
attach brackets to one side of the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch.
Figure 3-2: Attaching the Brackets to the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch

4. Power over Ethernet Overview
What is PoE?
Based on the global standard IEEE 802.3af, PoE is a technology for wired Ethernet,
the most widely installed local area network technology adopted today. PoE allows
the electrical power necessary for the operation of each end-device to be carried
by data cables rather than by separate power cords. New network applications,
such as IP Cameras, VoIP Phones, and Wireless Networking, can help enterprises
improve productivity. It minimizes wires that must be used to install the network
for offering lower cost, and less power failures.
IEEE 802.3af also called Data Terminal equipment (DTE) power via Media
dependent interface (MDI) is an international standard to dene the transmission
for power over Ethernet. The 802.3af is delivering 48V power over RJ-45 wiring.
Besides 802.3af also dene two types of source equipment: Mid-Span and End-
Span.
Mid-Span
Mid-Span device is placed between legacy switch and the powered device. MidSpan is tap the unused wire pairs 4/5 and 7/8 to carry power, the other four is for
data transmit.
End-Span
End-Span device is direct connecting with power device. End-Span could also tap
the wire 1/2 and 3/6.
PoE System Architecture
The specication of PoE typically requires two devices: the Powered Source
Equipment (PSE) and the Powered Device (PD). The PSE is either an End-Span
or a Mid-Span, while the PD is a PoE-enabled terminal, such as IP Phones, Wireless
LAN, etc. Power can be delivered over data pairs or spare pairs of standard CAT-5
cabling.
How is Power Transferred Through the Cable
A standard CAT5 Ethernet cable has four twisted pairs, but only two of these are
used for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T. The specication allows two options for using
these cables for power, shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3:
The spare pairs are used. Figure 2 shows the pair on pins 4 and 5 connected
together and forming the positive / negative supply, and the pair on pins 7 and 8
connected and forming the positive / negative supply. (In fact, a late change to the
spec allows either polarity to be used).

The data pairs are used. Since Ethernet pairs are transformer coupled at each
end, it is possible to apply DC power to the center tap of the isolation transformer
without upsetting the data transfer. In this mode of operation the pair on pins 3
and 6 and the pair on pins 1 and 2 can be of either polarity.

When to install PoE?
Consider the following scenarios:
You’re planning to install the latest VoIP Phone system to minimize cabling l
building costs when your company moves into new ofces next month.
The company staff has been clamoring for a wireless access point in the picnic l
area behind the building so they can work on their laptops through lunch, but
the cost of electrical power to the outside is not affordable.
Management asks for IP Surveillance Cameras and business access systems l
throughout the facility, but they would rather avoid another electrician’s
payment.

This chapter contains information to help you solve issues. If the PoE Fast Ethernet
Switch is not functioning properly, make sure the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch was set
up according to instructions in this manual.
The Link LED is not light
Solution:
Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the PoE Fast Ethernet
Switch.
Performance is bad
Solution:
Check the full duplex status of the Switch. If the PoE Fast Ethernet Switch is set to
full duplex and the partner is set to half duplex, then the performance will be poor.
Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full duplex. Some devices use
a physical or software switch to change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may not
recognize this type of full-duplex setting.
Why the Switch doesn’t connect to the network
Solution:
Check the LNK/ACT LED on the switch Try another port on the PoE Fast Ethernet
Switch Make sure the cable is installed properly Make sure the cable is the right
type Turn off the power. After a while, turn on power again.
Why connects PoE device to FNSW-1600P and it cannot power on?
Solution:
Please check the cable type of the connection from FNSW-1600P to the other end.
The cable should be an 8-wire UTP, Category 5 or above, EIA568 cable within 100
meters. A cable with only 4-wire, short loop or over 100 meters, all will affect the
power supply.
Please check and assure the device that fully complied with IEEE 802.3af standard.
What is the power output of each IEEE 802.af PoE port?
Solution:
Each PoE port supports 48V DC, 350mA, max 15.4 Watts power output. Detect
and inject by the standard of IEEE 802.3af.

That means you can directly connect the Switch to any Ethernet devices without
making a crossover cable. The following table and diagram show the standard RJ45 receptacle/ connector and their pin assignments:
