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-0504/0804 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. Features Conforms to IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab and 802.3x 5 / 8-port 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch with internal power Automatic MDI/MDIX crossover for all ports 4K entry MAC address table 1Mbit Memory buffer Back-plane: ¾ 5 port: 10Gbps back-plane ¾ 8 port: 16Gbps back-plane N-Way Auto-Negotiation Back pressure half duplex Flow control full duplex True non-blocking switching Store-and-Forward architecture support 1 Package Contents 5 / 8-port 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch with internal power Power Cord Four Rubber Feet Stackable Kits User’s Manual 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch w/internal power Stackable Kits Rubber Feet Power Cord User Manual Figure 1-1.

IF any item is missing or damaged, please contact your local dealer for service. 2 Hardware Description This Section describes the hardware of the 5/8-Port Gigabit Switch. Front 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. The details of LED indicator description refer to the LED Indicator section. Rear Panel The Rear Panel of the 5/8-port Gigabit Switch consists of 5/8 auto-negotiation 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 connectors. RJ-45 Ports (Auto MDI/MDIX): 5/8-port 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.] Figure 2-2. The Rear Panel of the 5/8 Port Gigabit Switch 3 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. Figure 2-3.LED Indicators LED Status Description Green Power On Off Power is not connected Power Green 100/1000 LNK/ACT Orange The port is operating at the speed of 1000Mbps. The port is operating at the speed of 100Mbps. Off No device attached or in 10Mbps mode Green The port is connecting with the device. 4 FDX/COL Blinking The port is receiving or transmitting data. Off No device attached. Orange The port is operating in Full-duplex mode. Blinking Packet collision occurred on this port. Off No device attached or in half-duplex mode. Table 2-1. The Descriptions of LED Indicators 5 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 power cord 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. 6 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. 7 Technical Specification The following table provides the technical specification of 5/8 ports Gigabit Copper Switch.
