Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Brief Introduction
STCS5024 series Ethernet Switches are ty e of box-sha ed L2/L3 wire s eed Ethernet Switches, a lied on the convergence
layer of the medium- and small-sized enter rise networks, IP Metro olitan Area Network (MAN) and Ethernet residential areas.
1.1.1 Hardware Architecture
STCS5024 Series Routing Switches Configurations include:
STCS5024ST:24 SFP orts and 4 Ethernet 10/100/1000 combo orts
STCS5024TF:24 Ethernet 10/100/1000 orts and 4 SFP combo orts
1.1.2 Services
Based on the SPROS Network OS, over which Ste hen Technologies has the inde endent intelligent ro erty, STCS5024 Series
Routing Switches can rovide various routing rotocols, VLAN management, traffic control and Qos guarantee etc., and it also
rovides erfect service control and user management function.
STCS5024 Series Routing Switches su ort online u grade through various a roaches such as FTP/TFTP. It also su orts local
configuration and remote configuration.
1.2 Typical Application
STCS5024 Series Routing Switches can be used flexibly in different networking environment such as access to enter rise network

and broadband network. The following sections introduce some ty ical a lication cases of it.
1.2.1 Networking of Residential Area for Broadband Ethernet Access
In the networking of residential area with broadband Ethernet access, STCS5024 Series Routing Switches are located in the
residential area center. It connects to Ethernet users via the L2 switches such as STES2026 Switch. Its U link is connected to the
core L3 switch through the GE extended module and thus connected to the MAN backbone.
1.2.2 Networking of Medium/Small Enterprise or Large Enterprise Branch
In the medium/small enter rises or the branches of large enter rises, STCS5024 Series Routing Switches can serve as the
backbone switch, which is connected to the head office or other branches through the router. As the enter rise or organization
scale grows, STCS5024 Series Routing Switches can rovide the larger scale backbone by cascade.
1.2.3 Networking of Large Enterprise and Campus
In large-scale enter rise networks and cam us networks, STCS5024 Series Routing Switches are located on the convergence layer
and connected to several L2 Ethernet switches such as STES2026 Switch on the downlink and the backbone GE switch via the GE
extended ort on the u link. In this way, STCS5024 Series Routing Switches rovide a com lete enter rise networking solution,
which rovides 1000M bandwidth to backbone and 100M bandwidth to deskto users.

Chapter 3 Installation Preparation
3.1 Precautions
To avoid any device im airment and bodily injury due to im ro er use, lease follow the recautions listed below:
Before cleaning the switch, lease un lug the switch connector first. Do not clean the switch with wet cloth or with
liquid.
Do not lace the switch near water or any dam area. Try as much as ossible to revent water and moisture from
entering the switch chassis.
Do not lace the switch on the unstable cases or deskto , as the switch might be damaged severely in case of a fall.
Ensure ro er ventilation of the room and kee the switch ventilation hole free of obstruction.
The switch can o erate normally under correct voltage in ut. Make sure that the o erating voltage is consistent with
that labeled on the switch.
Do not o en the chassis while the switch is in o eration to rotect the safe of the o erator and the switch.
3.2 Requirements on Environment
Switch should be used indoors. The following requirements must be met irres ective of whether you install the switch in
19-inch standard cabinet or install it directly on the workbench.
Make sure that enough room is left for the ventilation hole of the switch so as to ensure the heat dissi ation of the
switch chassis.
Make sure that the drafting and heat dissi ation systems of the cabinet and the workbench are good.
Make sure that the cabinet and the workbench are stable enough to bear the weight of the switch and the accessories.

STCS5024 Full Gigabit Layer 3 switch Installation Guide

www.ste hen-tele.com
Make sure that the cabinet and the workbench are well grounded.
To ensure normal o eration and rolong the service life of the switch, the requirements on the installation site described in
the following sections must also be met.
3.2.1 Temperature/Humidity Requirements
To ensure the normal o eration and service life of a switch, you need to maintain the tem erature and the humidity of the
equi ment room at a certain level. If the humidity level in the equi ment room is too high for a long time, it will lead to bad
insulation of the insulating material or even leakage. Sometimes, the mechanical erformance, change of material and the
corrosion of some metal arts are also likely to occur. If the relative humidity is too low, the ca tive screw may become
loose due to the shrinking of insulating sheath. Meanwhile, the static electricity is likely to be roduced in the dry weather,
which may jeo ardize the CMOS circuit of the switch. The Higher the tem erature is, the greater the damage to the switch
will be. The reliability of the switch will be then seriously affected and its service s an will be shortened because of
ex osure to high-tem erature environment for a long term. The ultra-high tem erature will s eed u the aging rocess of
the insulating material.
3.2.2 Laser Safety
In o erating status, it is rohibited to stare into the o en o tical interface because the laser being transmitted through the
o tical fiber will roduces a small beam of light, it has very high ower density and is invisible to human eyes, when a beam
of light enters the eye, retinal may be burned.
֠
֠֠
֠Caution:
Staring at the laser beam inside the fiber could hurt your eyes.

Chapter 4 Installation
4.1 Hardware Installation
4.1.1 Installing the Switch in 19-inch Standard Cabinet
Take the following ste s to install the switch:
Ste 1: Check the grounding and stability of the cabinet. Attach the angle iron at both sides of the front or rear anel with
screws.
Ste 2: Place Switch on a shelf of the cabinet. In accordance with the actual cases, slide switch along the guiding slots of the
cabinet to an a ro riate osition. Ensure that there is ro er clearance between the Switch and the guides.
Ste 3: Use screws to attach the angle iron on the fixed cable guides at both sides of the cabinet. Make sure that switch is
securely mounted on the cabinet with the brackets of cabinet slots and the mounting angle iron of the switch.
4.1.2 Installing the switch on the Workbench
If 19-inch standard cabinet is not available, you may sim ly lace the switch on a clean workbench. However, you need to
ay attention to the followings during such o eration:
Make sure that the workbench is stable and well grounded.
Leave about 10 centimeters away from the four sides of the switch for heat dissi ation.
Do not lace heavy objects on to of the switch.
4.2 Connecting Power Cord
Ste 1: Connect one end of the ground wire of the chassis shi ed with the switch to the grounding screw on the switch

rear anel, and ro erly ground the other end as near as ossible.
Ste 2: Plug one end of the ower cord to the ower socket on the rear anel of the switch chassis, and lug the other end
into the socket of AC ower su ly.
Ste 3: Check whether the ower indicator (POWER) on the front anel of the switch is on. On means that the ower cord
is correctly connected.
4.3 Connecting Console Cable
I. Console cable
The console cable is an 8-core shielded cable. One end of the cable is a crim ed RJ-45 connector, which is to be lugged
into the Console ort of the switch. The other end is furnished with a DB-9 (female) connectors. You can select either of
them according to the actual cases to fit in with the 9- in serial ort on the configuration terminal. The figure below
illustrates the console cable.

1 RTS ← 7
2 DTR ← 4
3 TXD ← 3
4 CD → 1
5 GND - 5
6 RXD → 2
7 DSR → 6
8 CTS → 8
II. Connecting Console Cable
While configuring the switch at the configuration terminal, take the following ste s to connect the console cable.
Ste 1: Plug the console cable’s DB-9 female connector to the serial ort of the PC or the terminal where the switch is to be
configured.
Ste 2: Plug one end of the RJ-45 connector of the console cable into the console ort of the switch.
