Introduction - EZ Switch 1000

The SMC family of EZ Switch 1000 Gigabit Ethernet Switches (SMC8504T & SMC8506T) is the perfect solution for bottlenecks at the core of a network. Bottlenecks are the inevitable result of dataintensive applications and the proliferation of new users. SMC ’s EZ Switch 1000 provides a seamless migration to higher-speed networking while solving bandwidth issues. It is designed to allow simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via an internal highspeed data channel.

In addition, the SMC8506T is also support one module slot for 2 Ethernet Gigabit ports to uplink to a server or network backbone. These gigabit switches are designed for Plug and Play installation, allows the network administrator to simply connect the network and power cables and the Switching/bridging functions begin automatically.

Installing the SMC EZ Switch 1000

Equipment Checklist

After unpacking the EZ Switch 1000, check the contents of the box to be sure you have received the following components:

Check the contents of your package for following parts:

z 6 port 10/100/1000 Copper Gigabit Switch z Power cord z 19” rack mount brackets. z RS232 cable z SMC Warranty Registration Card z This User Guide

Selecting a Site

Be sure to follow the site selection guidelines below when choosing a location:

Select a suitable location for the switch:

1. It should be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the switch.

2. The temperature and humidity should be within the ranges listed in the specifications.

3. The status LEDs should be clearly visible.

4. There should be adequate space (approximately two inches) on all sides for proper air flow.

Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines, fluorescent

lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical interference such as radios and transmitters.

Make sure that a properly grounded power outlet is within 2.44 meters (8 feet) of the switch and is powered from an independent circuit breaker. As with any equipment, using a filter or surge suppressor is recommended.

Positioning the Switch

The EZ Switch 1000 can be placed anywhere there is enough flat space, such as on a desktop or a shelf.

The rubber foot pads cushion the switch against shocks and vibrations, and provide space between each switch for ventilation.

Applying Power

Plug one end of the power cable into the power receptacle at the back of the switch, and the other end into an appropriate electrical outlet. Check the Power LED to be sure power is on.

Note: It is not necessary to power off the switch before connecting or disconnecting any UTP cables, as these actions will not disrupt the operation of other devices attached to the switch.

Configuring the SMC8506T

The SMC8506T can only be accessed through the console port on the rear of the unit. Please use the RS232 cable that came with your unit to ensure proper connection to the SMC8506T.
