FCC Statement

The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) restricts the amount of radio

frequency emission and radiation coming from computer equipment. The Ethernet

switch stated in this manual 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 is required to correct the interference at

his/her own expense. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the

manufacture would void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Introduction

The switch is a 6-port or 8-port Ethernet switch, integrating 10/100BaseTX

(100BaseFX) networks in a cost-effective pocket size package. The TX ports can

auto sense speed and half/full duplex modes and auto-MDIX.

Product Features

•4-port or 6-port for 10/100BaseTX.

•2-port for 100BaseFX.

•The TX ports auto negotiate for 10/100Mbps speed, auto detect full/half

duplex mode, and auto-MDIX.

•Choices of SC, ST, MT-RJ, VF-45, or LC connectors for multi-mode 100FX

ports.

•SC connectors for single-mode 100FX ports.

•Broadcast storming filter function.

•True non-blocking architecture.

•Full wire-speed forwarding rate.

•Store-and-forward mechanism.

•Back pressure and IEEE802.3x compliant flow control.

•Supports 2K MAC addresses.

•Supports 1M bits buffer memory.

•Front panel power and port status LEDs.

•Wall-mountable pocket size.

Front Panel

The front panel of the switch has an array of LED indicators to provide you with

instant feedback on the status of the switch.

LEDs

The array of LED indicators on the front panel conveys status and configuration

information to help you monitor and troubleshoot the switch.

nPower This LED comes on when the switch is connected to the power

adapter.

oPort Status Each port has a LED, indicating the port status.

LED State Indication

Steady The port has established a valid network connection.

LNK stands for LINK.

LNK/

ACT Flashing The port is transmitting or receiving data.

ACT stands for ACTIVITY.

Installation

Selecting a Site for the Switch

As with any electronic device, you should place the switch where it will not be

subject to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic interference.

Specifically, the site you select should meet the following requirements:

•The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to

40 degrees Celsius).

•The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing.

•Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC)

standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.

•Make sure that the switch receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the

ventilation holes on the side of the switch or the fan exhaust port on the rear of the

switch.

•The power outlet should be within 1.8meter (6 feet) of the switch.
