Fast Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LAN s and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies are proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times. Among them, Fast Ethernet, or 100Base-TX or 100Base-FX, provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the current 10Base-T technology. The nondisruptive 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 Introduction 1 takes advantage of the company's 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 bridges 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 making it possible for a local area network to be divided into different segments which don't compete with each other for network transmission capacity, giving a decreased load on each. The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual segments. Traffic that needs to go from one segment to another is automatically forwarded by the switch, without interfering with any other segments. This allows the total network capacity to be 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-FX networks. Switches supporting both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet are also ideal for bridging between existing 10Mbps networks and new 100Mbps networks. 2 Introduction User's Guide 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 and the setup and maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today's switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems. Features The DES-1008FX Switch was designed for easy installation and high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users increase continuously. The DES-1008FX Switch features: Ports 8 high performance 100BaseFX ports all operating at 100 Mbps for connection to workstation, servers and hubs. All ports can be selected to perform half-duplex or full duplex connections. Select any of 8 ports for uplink/ MDI-X (media dependent interface) port for uplink to another switch, hub or repeater. Performance features Store and forward switching scheme capability to support rate adaptation and protocol conversion. Introduction 3 Full and Half-duplex at 100Mbps to allow two communicating stations to transmit and receive at the same time. Data forwarding rate 148,800 pps per port at 100% of fiberspeed. Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc. at 148,800 pps per port at 100% of fiber-speed. 8K active MAC address entry table per device with selflearning and table aging. 2 MB packet buffer per port. Supports broadcast storm rate filtering. 4 Introduction User's Guide 2 2 UNPACKING AND SETUP This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Switch. Unpacking Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents.

Identifying External Components 13 4 4 CONNECTING THE SWITCH This chapter describes how to connect the DES-1008FX to your Fast Ethernet network. PC to Switch A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-string fiber straight cable. The PC (equipped with a 100 Mbps SC jack) should be connected to any of the eight ports (1x - 8x) of the DES-1008FX. The LED indicators for PC connection are dependent on the LAN card capabilities. If LED indicators are not illuminated after making a proper connection, check the PC's LAN card, the cable, Switch conditions and connections. NOTE: If your SC connectors are not locked together the TX and RX on the PC's side, the cable connectors at the switch must reversed to RX and TX of the Switch. This allows a TX from the card to enter into the RX of the switch. Locked (paired) SC connectors should be manufactured in this manner. The following are LED indicator possibilities for a PC to Switch connection: 14 Connecting The Switch User's Guide 1. The Link LED indicator comes ON upon hookup. 2. The Act. LED indicator illuminates if dataupon hookup. 3. The FDX LED indicator depends upon LAN card capabilities and DIP switch setting at DES-1008FX back panel. 4. The Col. LED indicator depends upon communication activity. Hub to Switch A hub (100Base-FX) can be connected to the Switch via a twostring fiber crossover cable. NOTE: If your SC connectors are not locked together the TX and RX on the PC's side, the cable connectors at the switch must reversed to RX and TX of the Switch. This allows a TX from the card to enter into the RX of the switch. Locked (paired) SC connectors should be manufactured in this manner. 100Base-FX Hub A traditional repeater/hub can only accomplish Half-Duplex setting. Set the DES-1008FX Duplex Mode switches for HalfDuplex of the ports that are hook to these hubs. For a 100Base-FX hub, the Switch's LED indicators should illuminate the following: The Link LED indicator comes ON upon hookup. The Act. LED indicator illuminates if data upon hookup. The FDX LED indicator should be off. 15 Connecting The Switch The Col. LED indicator depends upon communication activity. Switch to Switch A 100Base-FX compatible switch can be connected to the Switch via a two-string fiber crossover cable. Switch the Duplex mode switches to the appropriate selections to get the maximum bandwidth. Consult the other switches manual for the proper setting of Duplex Modes. The DES-1008FX Duplex Mode switches can be found on the back of the unit. "DOWN/ON" is Half-Duplex and "UP/OFF" is Full-Duplex. NOTE: If your SC connectors are not locked together the TX and RX on the PC's side, the cable connectors at the switch must reversed to RX and TX of the Switch. This allows a TX from the card to enter into the RX of the switch. Locked (paired) SC connectors should be manufactured in this manner. The "uplinked" Switch LED indicators for the respective connected ports are as follows: The Link LED indicator comes ON upon hookup. The Act. LED indicator illuminates if data upon hookup. The FDX LED indicator depends upon the "uplinked" switch's capabilities and Duplex Mode switch setting at DES-1008FX back panel. The Col. LED indicator depends upon communication activity. 16 Connecting The Switch User's Guide 5 5 CONFIGURING THE SWITCHES Summary The DES-1008FX is a Auto-Learning unintelligent 100BaseFX Fast Ethernet Switch.
