2. Introduction

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 supports 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.

This section describes the features of the 8-Port 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet

Switch, as well as providing some background information about Gigabit

Ethernet and switching technology.

Switching Technology

Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet technology is in the

field of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC

address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting 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 making it possible for a local area network to be

divided into different segments which don't compete with each other for

network transmission capacity, giving a decreased load on each.

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

segments. Traffic that needs to go from one segment to another is

automatically forwarded by the switch, without interfering with any other

segments. This allows the total network capacity to be multiplied, while still

maintaining the same network cabling and adapter cards.

Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous

generation of network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies.

Routers have also been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a

router and the setup and maintenance required make routers relatively

impractical. Today's switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area

network congestion problems.

3. Unpacking and Setup

This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Switch.

Unpacking

Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents. The

carton should contain the following items:

If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for

replacement.

Setup

The setup of the Switch can be performed using the following steps:

Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical

Specification for the acceptable operation temerature and humidity

ranges.

Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic

source,vibration, dust,and direct sunlight.

Leave at least 10cm of space at the left and right hand side of the Switch

for ventilation.

Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured

to the power adapter.

English

4. Identifying External Components

The front panel of the Switch consists of eight 1000BASE-T ports and LED

indicators.

This chapter describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the

Switch

Front Panel

Front panel view of the Switch

Rear panel view of the Switch

1000BASE-T Ports:

Eight Gigabit Ethernet ports of 10/100/1000Mbps Auto-Negotiation interface.

LED Indicators

Comprehensive LED indicators display the conditions of the Switch and status

of the network. A description of these LED indicators follows (see LED

Indicators).

DC Power Jack:

Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter. Check the technical

specification section for information about the AC power input voltage.

Rear Panel

The rear panel of the Switch consists of an DC power connector. The following

figure shows the rear panel of the Switch.

English

The LED indicators of the Switch include Power, Link/Act, 1000Mbps and

100Mbps. The following shows the LED indicators for the Switch along with an

explanation of each indicator.

The Switch LED indicators

LED Indicators

This indicator lights green when the Switch is receiving power, otherwise,

it is off.

These LED indicators are lighted up when there is a secure connection (or

link) to the desired port. The LED indicators blinking whenever there is

reception or transmission (i.e. ActivityACT) of data occurring at a port.

These LED indicators are lighted up when there is a secure connection (or

link) to 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet device at the desired port.

These LED indicators are lighted up when there is a secure connection (or

link) to 100Mbps Fast Ethernet device at the desired port.

Power:

Link/ACT:

1000Mbps:

100Mbps:

When the connection (or link) is 10Mbps, both of 1000Mbps and 100Mbps LED

indicators are off.
