Overview

The SMC6752AL2 is a Fast Ethernet switch with 48 10BASE-T/

100BASE-TX ports, two 1000BASE-T ports with two Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots (see Figure 1-1, Ports 49-50), and two additional 1000BASE-T ports provided as uplink ports. The switch also includes an SNMP-based management agent, which provides both in-band and out-of-band access for managing the switch.

This switch provides a broad range of powerful features for Layer 2 switching, delivering reliability and consistent performance for your network traffic. It brings order to poorly performing networks by segregating them into separate broadcast domains with IEEE 802.3Q compliant VLANs, and empowers multimedia applications with multicast switching and CoS services.

that operate in combination

* If an SFP transceiver is plugged in, the corresponding RJ-45 port is disabled for ports 49-50.

Switch Architecture

The SMC6752AL2 switch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all ports. The switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.

This switch uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity. With store-and-forward switching, the entire packet must be received into a buffer and checked for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being propagated throughout the network.

Network Management Options

This SMC6752AL2 switch contains a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance” monitoring of network and port status. It also includes a management agent that allows you to configure or monitor the switch using its embedded management software, or via SNMP applications. To manage the switch, you can make a direct connection to the RS-232 console port (out-of-band), or you can manage the switch through a network connection (in-band) using Telnet, the on-board Web agent, or SNMP-based network management software.

Description of Hardware

RJ-45 Ports

The SMC6752AL2 contains 48 10/100BASE-TX RJ-45 ports and four 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports (two of which are shared with SFP slots). All of the RJ-45 ports can operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, half or full duplex. The Gigabit ports can also operate at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. The RJ-45 ports all support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See “10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments” on page B-2.)

Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10, 100 or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If a device connected to one of these ports does not support auto-negotiation, the communication mode of that port can be configured manually.

Each port also supports auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.

SFP Slots

The SMC6752AL2 contains two Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots that are shared with 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports 49-50. If an SFP transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link on the port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled and cannot be used. The switch can also be configured to force the use of an RJ-45 port or SFP slot, as required.

Port and System Status LEDs

The SMC6752AL2 includes a display panel for key system and port indications that simplify installation and network troubleshooting. The LEDs, which are located on the front panel for easy viewing, are shown below and described in the following tables.
