These ports are connection points for PCs and other network devices, such as additional switches. Figure 2-3 Featured only on the 16-Port Switch, the security slot is located on a side panel (see Figure 2-3). (security slot) 1-16 or 1-24 The security slot is where you can attach a lock so the 16Port Switch will be protected from theft. 1-16 or 1-24 Mini GBIC1, Mini GBIC2 Featured on the 24-Port Switch only, the mini-GBIC (gigabit interface converter) ports are connection points for miniGBIC modules. If you use the Mini GBIC2 port, then you cannot use port 24. 2 3 Chapter 3: Connecting the 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch Your Network Layout Overview This chapter will explain how to connect network devices to the Switch. For an example of a typical network configuration, see the application diagram shown in Figure 3-1. Connecting Network Devices To connect network devices to the Switch, follow these instructions: 1. Make sure all the devices you will connect to the Switch are powered off. Connect a Category 5 Ethernet network cable to one of the numbered ports on the Switch. Figure 3-2 Note: Use Category 5e Ethernet network cables for your Gigabit connections. When you connect your network devices, make sure you don't exceed the maximum cabling distances, which are listed in the following table: Note for users of the 24-Port Switch: The mini-GBIC ports are shared. Do not use port 12 if you are using the Mini GBIC1 port, and do not use port 24 if you are using the Mini GBIC2 port. For instructions on how to connect mini-GBIC modules to the 24-Port Switch's mini-GBIC ports, refer to the module's documentation. Connect the supplied power cord to the Switch's power port, and plug the other end into an electrical outlet. Each active port's corresponding LED will light up on the Switch. Maximum Cabling Distances From Switch Hub Switch or Hub To Switch or Hub* Hub Computer Maximum Distance 100 meters (328 feet) 1 5 meters (16. 4 feet) 1 100 meters (328 feet) 1 *A hub refers to any type of 100Mbps hub, including regular hubs and stackable hubs. A 10Mbps hub connected to another 10Mbps hub can span up to 100 meters (328 feet). If you are installing the 16-Port Switch, proceed to the following section, "Placement Options for the 16-Port Switch. " If you are installing the 24-Port Switch, proceed to the following section, "Placement Options for the 24-Port Switch. " 4 5 Placement Options for the 16-Port Switch There are three ways to physically install the 16-Port Switch: set the Switch on its four rubber feet, mount the Switch in a standard-sized, 1U high rack, or hang the Switch on a wall using its wall-mount slots. Place the Switch in the rack, and secure the brackets with additional screws. The wall-mount slots are two crisscross slots on the Switch's bottom panel (see Figure 3-3). Attach two screws to the wall, so that the Switch's wall-mount slots line up with the two screws. Appendix A: Glossary 10BaseT - An Ethernet standard that uses twisted wire pairs. 100BaseTX - IEEE physical layer specification for 100 Mbps over two pairs of Category 5 UTP or STP wire. 1000Base-T - Provides half-duplex and full-duplex 1000Mbps Ethernet service over Category 5 links as defined by ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A. [. . . ] To reduce crosstalk or electromagnetic induction between pairs of wires, two insulated copper wires are twisted around each other. Since some telephone sets or desktop locations require multiple connections, twisted pair is sometimes installed in two or more pairs, all within a single cable.
