This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in
a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at his own expense.
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment.
You may use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) for RJ-45 connections - Category 3 or better
for 10 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better for 100 Mbps connections, Category 5, 5e,
or 6 for 1000 Mbps connections. For fiber optic connections, you may use 50/125 or 62.5/

Introduction

Switch Architecture
The 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
With a comprehensive array of LEDs, the switch provides “at a glance” monitorin g of
network and port status. The switch can be managed over the net work with a web
browser or Telnet application, or via a direct connection to the console port. The
switch includes a built-in network management agent that allows it to be managed
in-band using SNMP or RMON (Groups 1, 2, 3, 9) protocols. It also has an RS-232
serial port (DB-9 connector) on the rear panel for out-of-band management. A PC
may be connected to this port
null-modem serial cable. (See Appendix B for wiring options.)
For a detailed description of the management features, refer to the Management
Guide.
for configuration and monitoring out-of-band via a
Description of Hardware
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports
The switch contains eight 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 ports. All ports 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-1.)
Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimu m tr ansmission mode
(half or full duplex), and data ra te (10 o r 100 Mbp s) ca n be sel ected aut omatic all y. 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 IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch
can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.
