FCC Warning

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the

regulations 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 this user’s guide, 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 will

be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

CE Mark Warning

This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment, this product

may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required

to take adequate measures.

P/N: 6012-3216211 Rev.A1-01

UL Warning

a) Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature-If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack

assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater

than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the

equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer's maximum rated

ambient temperature (Tmra).

b) Reduced Air Flow-Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the

amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

c) Mechanical Loading-Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a

hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

d) Circuit Overloading-Consideration should be given to the connection of the

equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on

overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment

nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

e) Reliable Earthing-Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be

maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct

connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).

ABOUT THIS GUIDE

Congratulations on your purchase of the 16-Port 10/100Mbps NWay

Ethernet Switch. This device integrates 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and

10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highlyflexible package.

Purpose

This guide discusses how to install your 16-Port 10/100Mbps NWay

Ethernet Switch.

Terms/Usage

In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter upper case) refers to your

16-Port 10/100Mbps NWay Ethernet Switch, and ”switch” (first letter

lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches.

Overview of this User’s Guide

Introduction. Describes the Switch and its features.

Unpacking and Installation. Helps you get started with the basic

installation of the Switch.

Identifying External Components. Describes the front panel, rear

panel and LED indicators of the Switch.

Connecting the Switch. Tells how you can connect the Switch to your

Ethernet network.

Technical Specifications. Lists the technical (general, physical and

environmental, and performance) specifications of the Switch.

RJ-45 Pin Specification. Describes the RJ-45 receptacle/connector

and the straight through and crossover cable connector.

INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some

background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching

technology.

Fast Ethernet 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-TX (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 Switch is

compatible with all 10Mbps Ethernet environments, it provides a

straightforward upgrade and takes advantage of the existing

investment in hardware, software, and personnel training.

Switching Technology

Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology

is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges and

transmits Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet

protocol, among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments.

Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network

capacity available to users on a local area network. A switch

increases capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local

area network into different segments. Each segment has its own

bandwidth and it does not compete with others for network

transmission capacity.

A switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual

segments. The switch forwards traffic from origin segment to

destination segment, without interfering with any other segments. By

doing this, the total network capacity is multiplied, while still

maintaining the same network cabling and adapter cards.

For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of eliminating

problems of uplinking Fast Ethernet hubs beyond the “two-repeater

limit”. A switch can be used to split parts of the network into different

collision domains, making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet

network beyond the 205-meter network diameter limit. The switch

supports both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast

Ethernet, which is also ideal for bridging between the existing

10Mbps networks and the new 100Mbps networks.

LAN Switching technology is a marked improvement over the

previous generation of network bridges, which were criticized by their

higher latencies. Routers have also been used to segment local area

networks. But, the router expensive, difficult to setup, and
