ABOUT THIS GUIDE

This user’s guide tells you how to install your 10-port

10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch, how to connect it to your

network.

Terms

For simplicity, this documentation uses the terms “Switch” (first letter

upper case) to refer to the 10-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet

Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case) to refer to all Ethernet

switches, including the 10-port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet

Switch.

INTRODUCTION

This section describes the features of the 10-port 10/100/1000Mbps

Gigabit Ethernet Switch, as well as giving some background

information about Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Switching

technology.

Gigabit Ethernet Technology

Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the

same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full

duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold

increase in theoretical throughput over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a

hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet. Since it is compatible

with all 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit

Ethernet provides a straightforward upgrade without wasting a

company’s existing investment in hardware, software, and trained

personnel.

The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet

is essential to coping with the network bottlenecks that frequently

develop as computers and their busses get faster and more users use

applications that generate more traffic. Upgrading key components,

such as your backbone and servers to Gigabit Ethernet can greatly

improve network response times as well as significantly speed up the

traffic between your subnets.

Gigabit Ethernet enables fast optical fiber connections to support

video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar data-intensive

applications. Likewise, since data transfers occur 10 times faster than

Fast Ethernet, servers outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to

perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time.

In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet

is the most cost-effective method to take advantage of today and

tomorrow’s rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking

technologies. And with expected advances in the coming years in

silicon technology and digital signal processing that will enable

Gigabit Ethernet to eventually operate over unshielded twisted-pair

(UTP) cabling, outfitting your network with a powerful 1000-Mbps-

capable backbone/server connection creates a flexible foundation for

the next generation of network technology products.

FastEthernet Technology

The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of

desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high

performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies

have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve

client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-T (Fast Ethernet)

provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the current 10BASE-

T technology. The non-disruptive and smooth evolution nature, and

the dominating potential market base, virtually guarantee cost effective

and high performance Fast Ethernet solutions in the years to come.

100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a new standard specified by the IEEE 802.3

LAN committee. It is an extension of the 10Mbps Ethernet standard

with the ability to transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while

maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol. Since the 100Mbps Fast

Ethernet is compatible with all other 10Mbps Ethernet environments, it
