Chapter 1 Introduction

This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some

background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet 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 in the

years to come.

100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a new 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.

Switching Technology

Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet

technology is the development of switching technology. A

switch bridge 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

dividing a local area network into different segments, which

don’t compete with each other for network transmission

capacity.

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

individual segments. The switch, without interfering with any

other segments, automatically forwards traffic that needs to

go from one segment to another. By doing this the total

network capacity is multiplied, while still maintaining the same

network cabling and adapter cards.

For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of

eliminating problems of chaining hubs beyond the

“two-repeater limit." A switch can be used to split parts of the

network into different collision domains, making it possible to

expand your Fast Ethernet network beyond the 205-meter

network diameter limit for 100BASE-TX networks. Switches

supporting both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps

Fast Ethernet are also ideal for bridging between the existing

10Mbps networks and the new 100Mbps networks.

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,

the setup and maintenance required make routers relatively

impractical. Today switches are an ideal solution to most

kinds of local area network congestion problems.

Features

The Switches were designed for easy installation and high

performance in an environment where traffic on the network

and the number of user increase continuously.

The Switches with their small, compact size were specifically

designed for small to middle workgroups. These Switches can

be installed where space is limited; moreover, they provide

immediate access to a rapidly growing network through a wide

range of user-reliable functions.

The Switches are ideal for deployment with multiple

high -speed servers for shared bandwidth 10Mbps or 100Mbps

workgroups. With the highest bandwidth 200Mbps (100Mbps

full-duplex mode), any port can provide workstations with a

congestion-free data pipe for simultaneous access to the

server.

The Switches are expandable by cascading two or more

switches together. As all ports support 200Mbps, the Switches

can be cascaded from any port and to any number of

switches.

The Switches are a perfect choice for site planning to upgrade

to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet workgroups can

connect to the Switches now, and change adapters and hubs

anytime later without needing to change the Switches or

reconfigure the network.

The Switches combine dynamic memory allocation with

store-and-forward switching to ensure that the buffer is

effectively allocated for each port, while controlling the data

flow between the transmit and receive nodes to guarantee

against all possible packet loss.

The Switches are an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch

that offers solutions in accelerating small Ethernet workgroup

bandwidth.

Other key features are:

•Uplink/ MDI-II (media dependent interface) port for Uplink

to another switch, hub or repeater.

•Store and forward switching scheme capability. As the

result of complete frame checking and error frame filtering,

this scheme prevents error packages from transmitting

among segments.

•N-Way Auto-negotiation for any port. This allows for

auto-sensing of speed (10/100Mbps) thereby providing

you with automatic and flexible solutions in your network

connections.

•Flow control for any port. This minimizes dropped packets

by sending out collision signals while the port’s receiving

buffer is full. Note that flow control is only available in

half-duplex mode.

•Data forwarding rate per port is at wire-speed for

100Mbps speed.

•Data forwarding rate per port is at wire-speed for 10Mbps

speed.

•Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc.,

per port at wire-speed for 100Mbps speed.

•Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc.,

per port at wire-speed for 10Mbps speed.

•Up to 1K active MAC address entry table per port with

self-learning and table-aging for the Switch

Chapter 2 Unpacking and Setup

This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the

Switches.

Unpacking

Open the shipping cartons of the Switch and carefully

unpacks its contents. The carton should contain the following

items:

•One 5/8-port 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch

•One external power adapter

•This User’s Guide

•Quick Installation Guide

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:

•The surface must support at least 1.5 Kg for the Switch.

•The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of

the Switch.

•Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it

is fully secured to the power adapter.

•Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and

adequate ventilation around the Switch. Do not place

heavy objects on the Switch.

Notice: To prevent from device damage, please use the bundled

AC Adapter before power on your Switch.
