Introduction
In the modern business society, communication and sharing information is
essential. Computer networks have proven to be one of the fastest
methods of communication.
Gigabit Ethernet over copper technology is a cost effective way for
network equipments to be upgraded from Fast Ethernet to Gigabit speeds.
By using standard 4-pair Category 5 copper cabling, it doesn’t need to pull
expensive fiber optics cabling. This Technology will create high-speed
backbone connections between switches, servers, database, and end
stations.
The GSW-0503T/0803T 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch is an ideal solution
for solving traffic block at the core of the network. It offers 5/8
auto-negotiation 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet ports which
can significantly improve your network backbone performance.
Besides, this Switch will fit into any enterprise level network to act as
an exit to the backbone switch.
The GSW-0503T/0803T 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch features Auto
MDI/MDIX function for each port. [In general, MDI means connecting to
another Hub or Switch while MDIX means connecting to a workstation or
PC. Therefore, Auto MDI/MDIX means that you can connect to another
Switch or workstation without changing non-crossover or crossover
cabling. Besides, it also features a store-and-forward switching and can
auto-learn and store source address on a 4K MAC address table.

Hardware Description
This Section describes the hardware of the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch.
Front & Rear Panel
The Front Panel of the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch consists of LED-indicators
(100/1000, Link/Activity, Full duplex/Collision) for each Gigabit port and
power LED-indicator for unit.
Figure 2-1. The Front Panel of the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch
The Rear Panel of the 5/8-port Gigabit Switch consists of 5/8
auto-negotiation 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 connectors (support
Automatic MDI/MDIX function).
RJ-45 Ports (Auto MDI/MDIX): 5/8 auto-negotiation 10/100/1000
Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 connectors
[Auto MDI/MDIX means that you can connect to another switch or
workstation without changing straight through or crossover cabling.]

LED Indicators
The LED Indicators gives a real-time indication of system operating
statuses. There are 3 LED-indicators (100/1000, LNK/ACT, FDX/COL) for
each Gigabit port and one Power LED for unit. The following table
provides descriptions of LEDs status and their meaning.

Installation
This section shows the installation procedures of the switch.
Set the Switch on a sufficiently large flat space with a power outlet nearby.
The surface where you put your Switch should be clean, smooth, level,
and sturdy. Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to
allow attachment of cables, power cord and air circulation.
Attaching Rubber Feet
A. Make sure mounting surface on the bottom of the Switch is grease and
dust free.
B. Remove adhesive backing from your Rubber Feet.
C. Apply the Rubber Feet to each corner on the bottom of the Switch.
These footpads can prevent the Switch from shock/vibration.
Power On
Connect the cord of power adapter to the power socket on the rear panel
of the Switch. The other side of power cord connects to the power outlet.
Check the power indicator on the front panel to see if power is properly
supplied.

Network Application
This section provides you one sample of network topology in which the
5/8-Port Gigabit Switch is used. In general, the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch is
designed as a high-bandwidth backbone switch.
You can use the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch to connect servers, switches,
workstation, and PCs (Of course, the Gigabit 1000Base-T NIC has
installed into the PC) to each other by connecting these devices directly to
the Switch. The Switch automatically learns node address, which are
subsequently used to filter and forward all traffic based on the destination
address.
For enterprise networks where large data broadcast are constantly
processed, this switch is an ideal suitable for departmental switches to
connect to the Core Switch.
All ports can connect to departmental switches, and the departmental
switches can be connected to the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch. Then all the
devices in this network can communicate with each other. Connecting
servers to the Core Switch allow each end station to access the server’s
data.
This switch is an ideal solution for backbone connectivity. In the above
example, servers, department switches, and workstation are directly
connected to the Core Switch, 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch.
