User Manual

Version 1.0-0604

1. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing LevelOne FSW-2106. The 5-port 10/100 TX +

1-port SC 100FX switch is a compact desktop size switch which is an ideal

solution for small office or SOHO network user. It provides wire-speed,

Fast Ethernet switching function that allows high-performance, low-cost

connection.

FSW-2106 provides 5 switched N-Way 10/100Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet ports

with Auto MDI/MDI-X function and one SC 100Base-FX fiber port. The

multi-mode fiber port can be used to connect to a remote side and

supports distance up to 2 KM.

The switch will automatically detect the speed of the device that you plug

into it to allow you to use both 10 and 100Mpbs devices. The 10Mbps

bandwidth will accommodate 10Mbps workgroup hubs while

simultaneously providing the 100Mbps bandwidth needed to

accommodate multimedia applications. The switch features a

store-and-forward switching and it can auto-learn and store source

address on a 2K-entry MAC address table.

2. Hardware Description

This section mainly describes the hardware of the FSW-2106 switch. This

switch is a compact palm size switch (6.5 inches) with 5x 10/100 N-Way

UTP ports plus one 100Baes-FX fiber port.

The physical dimensions of FSW-2106 are: 165mmx 100mmx 24mm

Front Panel

The LED indicators are located on the frond panel of the switch. They

provide a real-time indication of systematic operation status.

LED Indicators

The following table provides descriptions of the LED statuses and

meaning.

Power On Green The power of switch is On

On Green

The port is operating at the speed of

100Mbps.

100M

Off In 10Mbps mode or no device

attached

On Green

The port is successfully connecting

with the device.

Blinks The port is receiving or transmitting

data.

LINK /ACT

 RJ-45 Ports: Five 10/100 N-Way auto-sensing for 10Base-T or

100Baes-TX connections.

 100Base-FX Fiber Port: One SC 100Base-FX fiber port. The

distance for fiber cabling can be extended up to 2 kilometers.

 DIP-switch: the DIP-switch is to select switch’s function.

DIP 1

UP: Fiber port operates on Full Duplex mode.

Down: Fiber port operates on Half Duplex

mode.

 DC Power Connector: Plug DC Power Adapter’s female end into this

device, and the male end of DC Power Adapter into a power outlet.

The Adapter supply the switch with Voltage 9V, 700mA.

3. Network Application

This section provides you a few samples of network topology in which the

switch is used. In general, the switch is designed to be as a desktop or

segment switch.

The switch automatically learns node address, which are subsequently

used to filter and forward all traffic based on the destination address.

Desktop Application

The switch is designed to be a compact desktop size switch that is an

ideal solution for small workgroup. The switch can be used as a

standalone switch to which personal computers, server, printer server are

directed connect to form small workgroup.

Desktop Application

Collapsed Backbone Application

You can use any port of the switch to connect with another hub or switch

to interconnect each of your small-switched workgroups to form a larger

switched network. Meanwhile, you can also use fiber ports to connect

switches. The distance between two switches via fiber cable can be up to

2Kms.

The switch support Auto MDI/MDI-X function, the function can auto

detects the cable is straight or crossover cable. That is to say, you can

connect another hub or switch without crossover table.

Figure 3-2. Collapsed Backbone Application

In the above illustration, two switches are used to interconnect two small

workgroup via fiber cable. All the devices in this network can communicate

with each other. Connecting servers to the switch allow other users to

access the server’s data.

4. Troubleshooting

The switch can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist in

identifying problems. This section describes common problems you may

encounter and where you can find possible solutions.

 Diagnosing LED Indicator

If “LINK/ACT” indicator does not light up after connection, you may check

whether network interface (e.g., a network adapter card on the attached

device), network cable, or switch port is defective or not. Verify that the

switch and attached device are power on. Be sure the cable is plugged

into both the switch and corresponding device. Verified the proper cable

type is used and its length does not exceed specified limits.

 Power

IF “Power” indicator does not light up when the power cord is plugged in,

you may have a problem with power outlet, or power cord. However, if the

switch powers off after running for a while, you should check for loose

power connections, power losses or surges at power outlet. IF you still

cannot resolve the problem, contact your local dealer for assistance.

 Cabling

A、RJ-45 ports: Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield

twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100ΩCategory3,4

or 5 cable for 10Mbps connections or 100ΩCategory 5 cable for

100Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair

connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

B、100Base-FX fiber port: Fiber multi-mode connector type must use

62.5/125 um multi-mode fiber cables. You can connect two devices

over a 2-kilometer distance.
