CHAPTER 1
Getting to Know Your Switch
1.1 Introduction
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch. The XGS1930 Series consists of
the following models:
• XGS1930-28
• XGS1930-28HP
• XGS1930-52
• XGS1930-52HP
Referring to PoE model(s) in this User's Guide only applies to XGS1930-28HP and XGS1930-52HP.
The Switch is a smart managed switch with one power slot for single power supply. The Switch provides
four SFP+ slots for uplink. By integrating static route functions, the Switch performs wire-speed layer-3
routing in addition to layer-2 switching.
The Switch supports NebulaFlex for hybrid mode which can set the Switch to operate in either
standalone or Nebula cloud management mode. When the Switch is in standalone mode, it can be
configured and managed by the web configurator. When the Switch is in Nebula cloud management
mode, it can be managed and provisioned by the Zyxel Nebula Control Center (NCC). See Section 8.12
on page 104 for more information.
The following table describes the port features of the Switch by model.

4 Register the Switch by entering its MAC address and serial number or its QR code. The serial number and
MAC address can be found in the Status screen or the device back label on the Switch. You can also
find the QR code on the device back label.
See Section 3.3 on page 32 for more information about the CLOUD LED or Section 7.2 on page 64 for
more information about the Cloud mode field in the Status screen to see if the Switch goes into Nebula
cloud management mode successfully.
Note: The Switch goes into Nebula cloud management mode automatically after it can
access the NCC and is successfully registered in the NCC. Its login password and
settings are then overwritten with what you have configured in the NCC.
From Cloud to Standalone
To return to the default standalone mode, just click Unregister to remove the Switch from the
organization/site in the NCC. The Switch will reboot and restore the factory default settings.
1.1.3 ZON Utility
With its built-in web configurator, including the Zyxel One Network (ZON) Neighbor Management feature
(Section 7.4 on page 71), viewing, managing and configuring the Switch and its neighboring devices is
easy.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
In addition, Zyxel offers a proprietary software program called Zyxel One Network (ZON) Utility, it is a
utility tool that assists you to set up and maintain network devices in a more simple and efficient way.
You can download the ZON Utility at www.zyxel.com and install it on a PC (Windows operation system).
For more information on ZON Utility see Section 7.3 on page 66.
The following table shows which firmware version supports ZON and Neighbor Management (Smart
Connect) for each Switch. The firmware on each Switch is identified by the firmware trunk version,
followed by a unique model code and release number in brackets. For example, 4.50(ABHT.0) is a
firmware version for XGS1930-28 where 4.50 is the firmware trunk version, ABHT identifies the XGS1930-28
and .0 is the first release of trunk version 4.50.
Table 2 Models and Firmware Versions
1.1.4 PoE
The XGS1930-28HP and XGS1930-52HP come with a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) feature. The XGS193028HP and XGS1930-52HP support the IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet (PoE) standard and IEEE
802.3af PoE standard.

1.2 Applications
This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments.
1.2.1 Backbone Application
The Switch is an ideal solution for small networks where rapid growth can be expected in the near future.
The Switch can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers and
servers directly to the Switch’s port or connect other switches to the Switch.
In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server. To expand the network,
simply add more networking devices such as switches, routers, computers, print servers etc.
Figure 1 Backbone Application
1.2.2 Bridging Example
In this example, the Switch connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate
backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All
users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch. You can
provide a super-fast uplink connection by using a Gigabit Ethernet/SFP/SFP+ port on the Switch.
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
21
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
Moreover, the Switch eases supervision and maintenance by allowing network managers to centralize
multiple servers at a single location.
Figure 2 Bridging Application
1.2.3 High Performance Switching Example
The Switch is ideal for connecting two networks that need high bandwidth. In the following example, use
trunking to connect these two networks.
Switching to higher-speed LANs such as ATM (Asynchronous Transmission Mode) is not feasible for most
people due to the expense of replacing all existing Ethernet cables and adapter cards, restructuring
your network and complex maintenance. The Switch can provide the same bandwidth as ATM at much
lower cost while still being able to use existing adapters and switches. Moreover, the current LAN
structure can be retained as all ports can freely communicate with each other.
Figure 3 High Performance Switched Workgroup Application
1.2.4 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Examples
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical
networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one group. A station can belong to more than one
group. With VLAN, a station cannot directly talk to or hear from stations that are not in the same group(s)
unless such traffic first goes through a router.
For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 9 on page 106.
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
22
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
1.2.4.1 Tag-based VLAN Example
Ports in the same VLAN group share the same frame broadcast domain thus increase network
performance through reduced broadcast traffic. VLAN groups can be modified at any time by adding,
moving or changing ports without any re-cabling.
Shared resources such as a server can be used by all ports in the same VLAN as the server. In the
following figure only ports that need access to the server need to be part of VLAN 1. Ports can belong to
other VLAN groups too.
Figure 4 Shared Server Using VLAN Example
1.3 Ways to Manage the Switch
Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported)
web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 36.
• FTP. Use FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See Section 35.10.1 on page
285.
• SNMP. The Switch can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See Section 35.8 on page 283.
• Cluster Management. Cluster Management allows you to manage multiple switches through one
switch, called the cluster manager. See Chapter 39 on page 312.
• ZON Utility. ZON Utility is a program designed to help you deploy and perform initial setup on a
network more efficiently. See Section 7.3 on page 66.
• NCC (Zyxel Nebula Control Center). With the NCC, you can remotely manage and monitor the
Switch through a cloud-based network management system. See Section 8.12 on page 104 or the
NCC User’s Guide for detailed information about how to access the NCC and manage your Switch
via the NCC. See the NCC User’s Guide for how to configure Nebula managed devices.
1.4 Good Habits for Managing the Switch
Do the following things regularly to make the Switch more secure and to manage the Switch more
effectively.
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
23
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of
characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working
configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your
password, you will have to reset the Switch to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Switch. You could simply restore your
last configuration.

Hardware Installation and
2.1 Installation Scenarios
This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.
The Switch can be placed on a desktop or rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack. Use the rubber feet in
a desktop installation and the brackets in a rack-mounted installation.
2.2 Desktop Installation Procedure
CHAPTER 2
Connection
1 Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.
2 Set the Switch on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the Switch and the
connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
3 Make sure there is at least 40 mm of clearance from the bottom to the Switch, and make sure there is
enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the
power cord. This is especially important for enclosed rack installations.
4 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
5 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the Switch. These rubber feet help protect the
Switch from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when stacking.
Figure 5 Attaching Rubber Feet
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
25
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes. Leave space between devices when stacking.
Note: Do NOT store things on the Switch, and allow clearance next to the ventilation holes to
prevent your Switch from overheating. This is especially crucial when your Switch
doesn’t have fan modules. See Section Table 1 on page 18 to see whether your Switch
has fan modules.
Overheating could affect the performance of your Switch, or even
damage it.
2.3 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
The Switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other
equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your Switch on a standard EIA rack using a rack-mounting
kit.
Note: Make sure there is enough clearance between each equipment on the rack for air
circulation.
2.3.1 Rack-mounted Installation Requirements
• Two mounting brackets.
• Eight M3 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
• Four M5 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
2.3.1.1 Precautions
• Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains.
• Make sure the position of the Switch does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all
necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.
2.3.2 Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch
1 Position a mounting bracket on one side of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes on the bracket with
the screw holes on the side of the Switch.
Figure 6 Attaching the Mounting Brackets

CHAPTER 3
Hardware Panels
Figure 10 Front Panel: XGS1930-52
Figure 11 Front Panel: XGS1930-52HP
3.1.1 Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The Switch has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The duplex mode can be half duplex or
full duplex.
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100/1000 Mbps)
and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device.
An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover
Ethernet cable.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port negotiates with the peer automatically to
determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support autonegotiation or turns off this feature, the Switch determines the connection speed by detecting the signal
on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the Switch’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
28
Chapter 3 Hardware Panels
port uses the pre-configured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to
make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
3.1.1.1 Default Ethernet Negotiation Settings
The factory default negotiation settings for the Gigabit ports on the Switch are:
• Speed: Auto
•Duplex: Auto
• Flow control: Off
• Link Aggregation: Disabled
3.1.1.2 Auto-crossover
All ports are auto-crossover, that is auto-MDIX ports (Media Dependent Interface Crossover), so you may
use either a straight-through Ethernet cable or crossover Ethernet cable for all Gigabit port connections.
Auto-crossover ports automatically sense whether they need to function as crossover or straight ports, so
crossover cables can connect both computers and switches/hubs.
3.1.2 PoE (XGS1930-28HP & XGS1930-52HP)
The Switch supports both the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) and IEEE 802.3at Power over
Ethernet (PoE) plus standards. The Switch is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) because it provides a
source of power via its Ethernet ports. Each device that receives power through an Ethernet port is a
Powered Device (PD).
3.1.3 SFP/SFP+ Slots
These are four slots for Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) or SFP+ modules, such as an SFP/SFP+
transceiver. The SFP+ (SFP Plus) is an enhanced version of the SFP and supports data rates of 10 Gbps. A
transceiver is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. Use a transceiver to connect a fiberoptic cable to the Switch. The Switch does not come with transceivers. You must use transceivers that
comply with the Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the
SFF committee’s INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.
You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to
connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic connectors.
• Type: SFP or SFP+ connection interface
• Connection speed: 1 or 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps)
To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiber-optic
module’s connectors.
3.1.3.1 Transceiver Installation
Use the following steps to install an SFP/SFP+ transceiver.
1 Locate the transmit (Tx) and the receive (Rx) markings on the SFP+ module to identify the top.
2 Insert the transceiver into the slot.
XGS1930 Series User’s Guide
29
Chapter 3 Hardware Panels
3 Press the transceiver firmly until it clicks into place.
4 The Switch automatically detects the installed transceiver. Check the LEDs to verify that it is functioning
properly.
5 Close the transceiver’s latch (latch styles vary).
6 Connect the fiber optic cables to the transceiver.
Figure 12 Transceiver Installation Example
Figure 13 Connecting the Fiber Optic Cables
3.1.3.2 Transceiver Removal
Use the following steps to remove an SFP/SFP+ transceiver.
1 Remove the fiber optic cables from the transceiver.
2 Open the transceiver’s latch (latch styles vary).
3 Pull the transceiver out of the slot.
