Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1 Overview of the product

The TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D 5/8-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch provides you with a high-performance, low-cost, easy-to-use, seamless and standard upgrade to boost your old network to 1000Mbps. Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections, or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality. Power users in the home, office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files and other applications that have to move large files across the network almost instantly.

The TP-LINK TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D features a non-blocking switching architecture that forwards and filters packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging, IEEE802.3x flow control for Full Duplex mode and backpressure for Half Duplex mode. It is compatible with all 10,100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices because it is standard-based, it protects your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.

The TP-LINK TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D is plug-and-play and no configuration is required. Auto MDI/MDI-X cable detection on all ports eliminate the need for crossover cable or Uplink port. Each port can be used as general ports or Uplink ports, and any port can be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a router or a switch, using the straight cable or crossover cable. Diagnostic LEDs which display link status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

1.2 Features

Fully Complies with IEEE802.3, 802.3u and 802.3ab standards

5/8 10/100/1000Mbps Auto-Negotiation RJ45 ports supporting Auto-

MDI/MDIX Supports IEEE802.3x flow control for Full Duplex mode and backpressure for

Half Duplex mode

Chapter 2: Installation

2.1 Installation

To install the Switch, please follow these steps:

You can place the Switch on a flat table or a vertical wall if you wish to hang

1. it.

2. Please inspect the Power Adapter carefully and make sure that it is properly

connected to a power source.

3. Be sure to leave enough space for heat dissipation and good ventilation in the Switch. Do not place heavy objects on the Switch.

2.2 Power on

After the Switch powers up, it will be automatically initialized and the LED indicators should respond as follows:

1) All of the Link/Act LED indicators will flash momentarily, which represent a

resetting of the system.

2) The Power LED indicator will light up.

Chapter 3: Identifying External Components

This Chapter describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the Switch. The sketches of the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators are very similar to the TL-SG1005D and TL-SG1008D models. The following sketches are for TLSG1008D.

3.1 Front Panel

The front panel of the Switch consists of several LED indicators.

3.3 LED indicators

The LED indicators include Power LED and Link/Act LEDs (See ). The LED indicators are used for monitoring and troubleshooting of the Switch. The following section shows the LED indicators for the Switch along with an explanation of each indicator.

Ø Power LED:

This indicator will light up when the Switch powers up. If the LED

is not lit, please check the power adapter and connection.

Ø 1000M LINK/ACT LEDs: These LEDs indicate Link/Active status. One LED will

light green when a 1000Mbps device is connected to the corresponding port. It flashes when data is being transmitted or received on the connection.

Ø 10/100M LINK/ACT LEDs: These LEDs indicate Link/Active status. One LED

will light green when a 10Mbps or 100Mbps device is connected to the corresponding port. It flashes when data is being transmitted or received on the connection.
