ABOUT THIS GUIDE

This user’s guide tells you how to install your 5-Port

1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Switch, how to connect it to

your Gigabit Ethernet network.

Terms

For simplicity, this documentation uses the terms “Switch”

(first letter upper case) to refer to the 5-Port 1000BASE-T

Gigabit Ethernet Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case)

to refer to all Ethernet switches, including the 5-Port

1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Switch.

Overview of this User’s Guide

Introduction. Describes the Switch and its features.

Unpacking and Setup. 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.

Technical Specifications. Lists all the technical specifications

of the Switch.

INTRODUCTION

This section describes the features of the 5-Port 1000BASE-T

Gigabit Ethernet Switch, as well as providing some

background information about Gigabit 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 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.

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
