[. . . ] Other key features are: Auto-MDI function supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true `plug and play' capability without the need of confusing crossover cables or crossover ports. As the result of complete frame checking and error frame filtering, this scheme prevents error packages from transmitting among segments. This allows for autosensing of speed (10/100Mbps) thereby providing you with automatic and flexible solutions in your network connections. This minimizes dropped packets by sending out collision signals when the port's receiving buffer is full. Data filtering/forwarding rate is wire -speed for 10Mbps and 100Mbps speed. 4K MAC address entry table per device with self-learning for the Switch. 128KBytes RAM buffer per device for the Switch. 8 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 LevelOne 5/8 Port 10/100Mbps PalmCon Switch One external power adapter This User's 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. 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. 9 1 2 10 3 11 12 IDENTIFYING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS This section identifies all the major external components of the hub. Both the front and rear panels are shown, followed by a description of each panel feature. The indicator panel is described in detail in the next chapter. Front Panel The figure below shows the front panels of the switch.

Rear Panel 1 2 3 4 5 7. 5VDC/1A 13 FSW-0507TX 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 7. 5VDC/1A FSW-0807TX DC Power Jack: Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter. Check the technical specification section for information about the AC power input voltage. Since the switch does not include a power switch, plugging its power adapter into a power outlet will immediately power it on. Auto-MDI Jacks: These jacks supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function gives true `plug and play' capability without the need of confusing crossover cables or crossover ports. With the Auto-MDI function, you just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and no need to care if the end node is NIC (Network Interface Card) or switches and hubs. LED Indicators Power Indicator (PWR) This indicator lights green when the hub is receiving power, otherwise, it is off. 14 Full-Duplex/Collision (Full-Duplex/Collision) This LED indicator light green when a respective port is in full duplex (FDX) mode. Otherwise, it is blinking when collisions are occurring on the respective port. Link/Activity (100M=green, 10M=amber) This indicator light green when the port is connected to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet station, if the indicator blinking green will be transmit or received data on the 100Mbps network. [. . . ] 100BASE-TX Hub For a 100BASE-TX hub, the Switch LED indicators should light up as the following: "Full-Duplex/Collision" LED indicator is OFF. "100LINK/ACT, 10LINK/ACT" LED indicator is light green. Switch to switch (other devices) The Switch can be connected to another switch or other devices (routers, bridges, etc. ) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP cable. The "100LINK/ACT, 10LINK/ACT" LED indicator light green for hookup to 100Mbps speed or light amber for hookup to 10Mbps speed. The "Full-Duplex/Collision" LED indicator depends upon LAN card capabilities for full-duplex or half-duplex 10 Port Speed & Duplex Mode After plugging the selected cable to a specific port, the system uses auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new twisted-pair connection: If the attached device does not support auto-negotiation or has auto-negotiation disabled, an auto-sensing process is initiated to select the speed and set the duplex mode to halfduplex. 11 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS General Standards IEEE 802. 3 10BASE -T Ethernet IEEE 802. 3u 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet ANSI/IEEE 802. 3 NWay Auto-negotiation IEEE 802. 3x Full duplex Flow Control Protocol Data Transfer Rate Topology Network Cables Number of Ports CSMA/CD Ethernet: 10Mbps (half duplex), 20Mbps (full-duplex) (full- duple x) Fast Ethernet: 100Mbps (half duplex), 200Mbps Star 10BASE-T: 2-pair UTP Cat.
