Quick installation This quick installation guide is provided to help the user to set up the switch in a short time. However, it is recommended that users read through this manual before trying installing the hardware. After unpacking the switch, a suitable location must be found for it. Because this switch occupies a central location in the network, it is important to find a stable hori- zontal surface which is clear of electromagnetic interference and equipped with a power outlet. Neither the

Quick Overview of Networking Terminology Quick Overview of Networking Terminology Network Terminology A network is cosisted of multiple interconnected nodes. A node can be a comput- er, a server (that is, a computer dedicated to storing networked data or applica- tions), a shared peripheral (such as a printer or modem) or other networking devices (such as repeating or switching switches, routers, transceivers, etc.). A Fast Ethernet network operates at a 100Mbps (Megabits per second) transfer s

Quick Overview of Networking Terminology - Check the validity of each signal it receives and discard invalid signal. - Show whether each network node is currently connected, idle, transmiting data, or in half/full duplex. Indicating a collision it gives users an idea on the network's current traffic status, Collisions occur frequently in a Fast Ethernet network. Different applications are used to for different network devices. Those applica- tions performed by a switch have functions as follows:

What Is Fast Ethernet? What Is Fast Ethernet? Historical Background Fast Ethernet was developed in the early 90s to solve the bottleneck problems encountered by older Ethernet networks. Ethernet, however, is a networking tech- nology developed in the early 70s. Ethernet network carries data signal through thick passive cables at a speed of 10Mbp. However, signals are delivered to all nodes in the network at the same time, which resulted in frequent collisions and a lag in general network perfor

How to Configure a Fast Ethernet Network? How to Configure a Fast Ethernet Network? Cable Length In a Fast Ethernet network, twisted-pair cables have a length limit. No UTP or STP cable can be of more than 100 meters (328 feet). A signal can not be sent between two end nodes through more than 200 meters of twisted pair cable. In a non-uplinked network, all end nodes are thus connected to a switch through cables which do not exceed 100 meters in length. For this reason, a non-uplinked network is

How to Configure a Fast Ethernet Network? Different Network Topologies Varies with users' needs, the switch can be operated as a standalone device or in a multiple-switches environment. Standalone Device When one switch is in use in a network, it is a standalone switch. The switch can only be connected to users' workstations. Its main function is to exchange data in a peer-to-peer relationship. In addition to data exchange between end nodes, having access to a common pool of data requires the u

Installing a Switch Installing a Switch Before the Installation Before installing a switch, users must acertain that a proper operating environ- ment is provided for the network. A right operating environment for a network fea- tures these factors: - Power : The switch must be provided with a power voltage ranging from 90 to 264 VAC (with an error margin of 10%) at 50 to 60Hz (+/- 3Hz). The switch's power supply will automatically adjust itself to the power available. - Humidity : The switch a

Installing a Switch Connecting Hubs or Other Switches To make a switch-to-hub or switch-to-switch connection, please do the following: 1. Make sure you have the proper cables: - Use Category 3 UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cables or better for 10BASE- T connections - Use Category 5 UTP cables for 100BASE-TX connections. 2. Connect UTP Cable to regular port of FES-1800 Fast Ethernet Switch, which is connected to port-8 on FES-1800 Fast Ethernet Switch. The switch must be setup to X position befo

Installing a Switch The users must consider the following cable requirements prior to connections: - Cables must be of a Category 5 UTP or Category 1 STP or equivalent cable type for a Fast Ethernet network. Such cables feature RJ-45 plugs at both ends and through wiring. - In a Fast Ethernet network, cable lengths must not exceed 100 meters (328 feet) between network end nodes and the switch. - All end nodes connected to a Fast Ethernet switch must be equipped with Fast Ethernet adapters compl

Network Management Network Management LED Indicators The switch's front panel contains indicators called light emitting diodes or LEDs. LEDs make quick diagnoses on the network's status. They allow users to know, at a glance, the kind of problem the network encounters. Different functions of LED’s are displayed on the front panel. There are five types of LEDs: Power indicator: Color : Green Label : Power This indicator turns to green when the switch is connected to the wall adapter. If the gree

Network Management A collision occurs as two end nodes are sending data simultaneously on the network. Collisions are frequent in a Fast Ethernet network. When a collision occurs, the two end nodes stop data transmission but backs up again later on. However, excessive collision may indicate a sign of: - Network overload - Device malfunctions - Cabling problem Troubleshooting The different LED’s displayed on the switch's front panel help users manage their networks. Here is a list of common pro
