ABOUT THIS GUIDE
Congratulations on your purchase of the 16-Port 10/100Mbps Ethernet
Web Smart Switch with 8-Port PoE. This Switch integrates 100Mbps
Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highly
flexible package. Since this switch’s Port-1 to Port-8 are Power over
Ethernet (PoE) ports, it will automatically detects the presence of
IEEE 802.3af-compliant devices and provides power through
the Port-1 to Port-8. The switch provides 15.4 W per port and
can be used to WLAN access point, IP phone, video camera and
other PD devices. The Switch will automatically detect the
network appliance’s requirements, and the switch will supplies
the required power current to each appliance.
Purpose
This guide discusses how to install your 16-Port 10/100Mbps Ethernet
Web Smart Switch with 8-Port PoE.
Terms/Usage
In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter upper case) refers to your
16-Port 10/100Mbps Ethernet Web Smart Switch with 8-Port PoE and
“switch” (first letter lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches.

INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the 16-Port 10/100Mbps
Ethernet Web Smart Switch with 8-Port PoE and some background
information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching technology.
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of
desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high
performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies
have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve
client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-T (Fast
Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the
current 10BASE-T technology. The non-disruptive and smooth
evolution nature, and the dominating potential market base, virtually
guarantees cost-effective and high performance Fast Ethernet
solutions.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a 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 takes
advantage of the 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 dividing a local area
network into different segments, which don’t compete with each other
for network transmission capacity.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the
individual segments. The switch, without interfering with any other
segments, automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one
segment to another. By doing this the total network capacity is
multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and
adapter cards.
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, the setup and maintenance required
make routers relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal
solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems.

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network)
A VLAN is a group of end-stations that are not constrained by their
physical location and can communicate as if a common broadcast
domain, a LAN. The primary utility of using VLAN is to reduce
latency and need for routers, using faster switching instead. Other
VLAN utility includes:
Security, Security is increased with the reduction of opportunity in
eavesdropping on a broadcast network because data will be switched
to only those confidential users within the VLAN.
Cost Reduction, VLAN can be used to create multiple broadcast
domains, thus eliminating the need of expensive routers.
802.1Q VLAN, The VLAN tagging option is a standard set by the
IEEE to facilitate the spanning of VLANs across multiple switches
(Reference: IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998 Virtual Bridged Local Area
Networks).
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Power over Ethernet (PoE) integrates power and data onto one single
cabling infrastructure, eliminating the need to have AC power
available at all locations.
Power and Data is integrated onto the same cable, supportingcategory
5/5e up to 100 Meters, PoE will provide power to PoE compatible
device, such as IP telephones, wireless LAN access points and IP
security cameras.
PoE is already widely adopted in the market, saving up to 50% of
overall installation costs by eliminating the need to install separate
electrical wiring and power outlets.
