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 or her 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.
VCCI Warning
This is a product of VCCI Class A Compliance.
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 over current 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 26-Port
10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 2 x 1000Mbps
and 24 10/100Mbps ports. This device integrates 1000Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet
network capabilities in a highly flexible package.
Purpose
This user’s guide tells you how to install your 26-Port
10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Switch and how to connect it
to your Ethernet network.
Terms/Usage
For simplicity, this documentation uses the terms “Switch” (first
letter upper case) to refer to this 26-Port 10/100/1000Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case) to
refer to Ethernet switches in general.

INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the Switch. This section
also provides some background information about Gigabit
Ethernet and 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-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.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a 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 provides a straightforward upgrade and
takes advantage of the existing investment in hardware, software,
and personnel training.

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 are essential to coping with the network bottlenecks that
frequently develop as computers and their busses get faster and
more users using 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.
The phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet was
the most cost-effective method to take advantage of today’s
rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking
technologies. And with expected advances in silicon technology
