Product User Guide
Introduction
This compact Tyco Electronics/AMPNetconnect auto-negotiating
Ethernet workgroup smart switch enables SOHO users and small
size workgroups to have high speed, low latency LAN connections
to the main network using a fibre link.
The automatic sensing of the connected 10/100Mbit/s data rate
and the detection of either a switch/hub or PC connected to the
Ethernet copper ports eliminates the need for any Ethernet crossover cables and greatly simplifies installation.

Ports
RJ-45 Ports. These Ethernet RJ-45 ports support both
shielded and unshielded cabling systems. Each port autonegotiates the 10/100Mbit/s network speed and autodetects the connected device type which eliminates the
need for cross-over cables.
Fibre Port. The switch has a fibre uplink port that can be
connected to 100Base-FX devices. Different optical
connector formats are available (ST/SC/MT-RJ) together
with singlemode and multimode fibres.
Console Port. This port enables the administrator to
change switch settings such as port values, VLANs etc.
AC Power Connector This connector accepts any
standard IEC 320 style power connector.

Installation
Copper and Fiber Cabling Guidelines
1. The RJ-45 ports can be connected to unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling systems compliant
with the IEEE 802.3u 100Base TX standard for Category 5. The
cable between the switch and the link partner device (router,
hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 metres long.
2. The switch auto-detects the type of connected device (PC or
hub) and automatically configures the RJ-45 port to avoid the
need for an Ethernet cross-over cable.
3. The fibre link must use either 50 or 62.5/125 micron multi-mode
or 9/125 micron singlemode cable (dependant on model). You
can link two devices over a distance of up to 2km for multimode
or 15km on singlemode. See optical budget specifications.
4. The console port is an RS232 port and should not be used for
cable distances greater than 20 metres. Use the supplied data
cable wherever possible.
Desktop Installation
1. Fit the self-adhesive rubber feet to the underside of the switch.
2. Locate the switch in a clean, flat and safe position that has easy
access to AC power. Ensure that there is sufficient clearance
around the switch to enable air circulation.
