1.0 Introduction
Thank you for your purchase on Xsense’ GES-4000 4-Port Gigabit
Switch. The Gigabit Switch can be fully utilized by connecting it to
desktops, servers, and workstations with the following features:
1.1 Features
This Gigabit switch has the capability to automatically sense the line
speed of the hardware as well as to negotiate its duplex mode.
• Plug-and-play installation.
•Gigabit Ethernet over copper, compatible with 1000 BASE-T,
IEEE 802.3ab.
• 4 Gigabit Ethernet switch ports.
• Capability to auto-detect and support 100/1000 Mbps trans-
mission and reception simultaneously.
•4.8 Gpbs aggregated throughput (full wire speed forwarding
rate).
•Allows 12 K MAC address entries.
• Contains internal power supply.
• 14 inch rack mounting.
• Standard 1U chassis high.

Chapter 1 Introduction
2.0 4-Port Gigabit Switch Outlook
The figure below indicates the layout of the front panel of a Xsense
GES-4000. The front panel is composed of 4 Gigabit twisted pair
ports, LED indicators, and a Power LED. (See Figure 2.0-1)
2.1 LEDs
During the normal networking activity, the LEDs on the front panel
should operate in the following way:
LED Indicator Power Status Description.
Power Green Switch on / ready to use.
OFF Switch is off.
100M Green 100 Mbps link established on port.
Off No 100 Mbps in established.
1000M Green 1000 Mbps link is established.
Blink Possible data error.
Activity LED Green – Blink Packet activities.
(transmission / reception).
Off No packet activities.
FDX LED Green Full-duplex mode is in operation.
Off Half-duplex mode is in operation.

2.2 Switch / Hub Configuration
The GES-4000 can be used to establish a network in the same way
one would use a regular 10/100 Mbps switch or simple 10 BASE-T
hub on a network. Each port on the GES-4000 can operate at 100
or 1000 Mbps and auto negotiate full/half-duplex modes for a 100
Mbps connection. The GES-4000 can be easily be connected to an
existing GES-4000, 10/100 Mbps switch, 10/100 Mbps dual speed
hub for a switch-to-switch or hub connection by using an Ethernet
cable. Each port also has the ability to detect the difference between
a crossover cable and a regular straight cable. This eliminates the
need to for an separate uplink port on the GES-4000 or the connect-
ing switch or hub. View the figure below for a sample configuration.
(See Figure 2.2-1)
Note: When making connections from one GES-4000 to another GES-
4000, please connect any port of your GES-4000 with a Gigabit cable
to the Gigabit port of another GES-4000. Also note that the maximum
cable length is 100 meters for the 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-TX, and 10
BASE-T networks.

2.3 Network Configuration
An ideal configuration would be to use the GES-4000 with network of
workstations and a server. By using RJ-45 ports on the GES-4000,
a simple network can be achieved quickly and easily. Each port on
the GES-4000 can operate a 100 or 1000 Mbps and auto negotiate
full/half-dubplex modes for a 100 Mbps connection. For a Gigabit
connection, always install the Gigabit NICs prior to connecting the
GES-4000s in a PC. View the figure below for a sample configura-
tion. (See Figure 2.3-1)
Note: When making connections, please connect any port of your
GES-4000 with a Gigabit cable to the Gigabit port of another GES-4000.
Also note that the maximum cable length is 100 meters for the 1000
BASE-T, 100 BASE-TX, and 10 BASE-T networks.

3.0 Mounting the Switch
GES-4000 comes with a package of two mounting brackets, four rub-
ber feet, and six screws. The supplied rubber feet can be used for
placing the GES-4000 on a flat surface. The supplied mounting
brackets and six screws can be used for rack mounting the GES-
4000.
3.1 Rack Mounting with Mounting Brackets
(See Figure 3.1-1)
To apply, you must:
1. Place the mounting bracket over the mounting holes at each
end of the switch.
2. Insert the one screw through each bracket into the mounting
hole.
3. Insert the switch into the rack and fasten it with the screws.
3.2 Placing the Switch with Rubber Feet
(See Figure 3.2-1)
To apply, you must:
1. Apply the rubber feet onto the bottom of the switch.
2. Place the switch on the flat surface.

4.0 Troubleshooting
Below is the instruction on how to troubleshoot your GES-4000 when
it does not function properly.
Power LED Off Check the power cord connection. Be sure it is prop
erly connected to the power outlet and the rear of the
switch.
100M Link Off Check the network cable.
100M Fast Blinking Replace the network cable.
100M Slow Blinking Check network cable, Ethernet adapters, or any other
network devices.
