Front Panel
2.3.1 10/100Mbps TP Ports Each 10/100Mbps TP port provides an Auto-Negotiation function that senses for the attached device's maximum operating speed and automatically sets the Switch to operate at that speed. Users only need to connect a network device into any TP port. Auto-MDIX is also supported on all TP ports which allows uplinking to another Switch free of cross-over or straight cable selection hassle. 2.3.2 Cabling 10Mbps -When transmitting at 10Mbps Category 3, 4 or 5 TP cabling with RJ-45 sockets can be used. 100Mbps -To transmit at 100Mbps requires Category 5 TP cabling. Port Type Cable Type Connector 10BASE-T Category 3, 4 or 5 TP RJ-45 100BASE-TX Cat.5 TP RJ-45 Note: Category 5 UTP cable is recommended whenever installing new cabling. 2.3.3 Status LEDs The Switches come with a complete range of LEDs. The table below lists each LEDs name, color and a brief description of its function. Name Color Pwr Green LINK/ACT Green FD/COL Function Lit: Power "On" Lit: When the port has a valid physical connection with another device. Blinks: When the port is sending or receiving data (Activity). Amber Lit: When the port is set to Full-Duplex mode. Blinks: When a collision is detected, when the port is in Half-Duplex mode.

INSTALLATION
The Switch is "Plug-&-Play". It does not require software configuration. Users can immediately use any of the features of this product simply by attaching the cables and turning on the power. If user need advanced smart functions to manage LAN network more effectively, we provide software and cable for easy configuration of the Switch. Please see section 5 and 6 for further details.
3.1
To locate the switch on a desktop ¡D Attach the Four (4) rubber feet included in the product package to the bottom of the Switch, one in each corner. ¡D Place the Switch on a clean, flat desk or tabletop close to a power outlet. ¡D Plug in all network connections and the power cord, and Power "ON". Rackmount placement ¡D Attach One (1) rackmounting bracket on each side of the Switch front panel and secure each bracket with the provided screws. ¡D Use the other provided screws to secure each Switch to the rack.

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS
Prior to Installation Before installing the Switch and connecting network devices, it is important to plan the network's layout. Things you should consider include: ¡D Dedicated Bandwidth: File servers and other high-traffic hardware improve their performance if they have their own dedicated 10Mbps or 100Mbps bandwidth. ¡D Full-Duplex: Determine which devices support Full-Duplex connections. ¡D Fast Ethernet: Make sure rules for cable lengths and categories are followed. ¡D Auto-Negotiation: Devices with different speeds may be easily swapped when the other end of the cable is fixed to a port with Auto-Negotiation. Half- and Full-Duplex The Switch supports both Half- and Full-Duplex modes for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. ¡D In Half-Duplex mode: Data cannot be transmitted and received at the same time. Attached devices must finish transmitting data before they can receive data. ¡D In Full-Duplex mode: Data can be transmitted and received at the same time. However: ¡D Full-Duplex transmission is only possible between two devices with a dedicated link (ex: Switch-Switch, Switch-PC) ¡D Both devices must have Full-Duplex capability ¡D Both devices must be set to Full-Duplex (ex: Auto-Negotiation  Auto-Negotiation, Non-Auto-Negotiation to Non-Auto-Negotiation) The 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T ports on the Switch detect and set the line's operating mode by using their Auto-Negotiation function. Fast Ethernet 100BASE-TX is called "Fast Ethernet". In Fast Ethernet data travels ten times faster (100Mbps) than in traditional Ethernet (10Mbps). Below is a list of the cable types and connectors supported by the Switch for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX networks. Port Type Cable Type Connector 10BASE-T Category 3, 4 or 5 TP RJ-45 100BASE-TX Cat. 5 TP RJ-45 Note: If your 10BASE-T network currently uses Category 5 TP cabling, you can instantly upgrade the network to a 100BASE-TX network by changing network devices.

Auto-Negotiation Every 10/100Mbps dual speed port on the Switch has a Built-In "Auto-Negotiation" function. This technology automatically sets the best possible bandwidth as soon as a connection is established with another network device. (Usually at Power "On" or Reset.) This capability is achieved via the Switch's Auto-Negotiation function that automatically detects the modes and speeds the second (attached) device is capable of. Evaluating Auto-Negotiation Capability: If attached device is: The Switch will automatically set its TP ports to operate at: 100Mbps 100Mbps (100BASE-TX, Half-Duplex) no Auto-Negotiation 100Mbps 200Mbps (100BASE-TX, Full-Duplex) with Auto-Negotiation 10Mbps 10Mbps (10BASE-T, Half-Duplex) no Auto-Negotiation 10Mbps 20Mbps (10BASE-T, Full-Duplex) with Auto-Negotiation Note: If the attached device is set to a fixed mode (ex: Forced Full-Duplex) it will not operate as an Auto-Negotiation device.
4.5
MAC Address Table Every Ethernet data packet includes both source and destination addresses. This Six (6)-bytes ID is called the MAC (Media Access Control) Address. The Switch can automatically learn and store MAC addresses. However, the MAC address table is volatile: it disappears when the Switch is powered "Off" or reset. Note: When the network needs reconfiguration, we recommend turning off the power first. After all nodes have been moved, turn the Switch back "On" to rebuild the internal MAC address table.

SMART FUNCTION SETTINGS
Hardware installation The Switch has a smart function that you can use to manage your Local Area Network (LAN) more effectively. You also can use the default setting to make the Switch operate as a dumb switch. If you want to use smart function, install the Switch as below: Use the Printer Cable to connect the Switch to a computer. Connect One (1) cable end to the Switch, and connect the other end to the computer's "LPT" port. Software installation First, you should execute setup program to install the software. Listed below shows the disk label, execute setting up file and the default installation path.
