INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the Web Smart Switch 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

8
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 do not 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 the 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.

9
Cost Reduction: A 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 are integrated onto the same cable. Supporting
category 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.

UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the
Switch.
Unpacking
Open the shipping cartons of the Switch and carefully unpacks its
contents. The carton should contain the following items:
One 16-Port 10/100Mbps Ethernet Web Smart Switch with 8-Port
PoE
One AC power cord, suitable for your area’s electrical power
connections
Four rubber feet to be used for shock cushioning
Screws and two mounting brackets
CD-ROM with Web Management Utility and Manual
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local
reseller for replacement.
Installation
The site where you install the hub stack may greatly affect its
performance. When installing, consider the following pointers:
Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical
Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating
ranges.
Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to
sunlight.

Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the hub for
ventilation.
Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight,
or in an EIA standard-size equipment rack. For information on rack
installation, see the next section, titled Rack Mounting.
When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the rubber feet to
the bottom of each device. The rubber feet cushion the hub and
protect the hub case from scratching.
Rack Mounting
The Switch can be mounted in an EIA standard-size, 19-inch rack,
which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. Attach
the mounting brackets at the Switch’s front panel (one on each side),
and secure them with the provided screws.
Figure 1. Combine the Switch with the provided screws.
Then, use screws provided with the equipment rack to mount each
switch in the rack.
Figure 2. Mount the Switch in the rack.

Connecting Network Cable
The Switch supports 16 10/100M Ethernet ports and Port 1 ~ 8 are
PoE Enable ports. These PoE ports will be automatically activated
when a compatible terminal is identified. The Switch will supply
power through the Ethernet port to the connected PoE device.
For Legacy devices that are not yet compatible, the PoE port will not
offer the power to these devices. This feature allows users to freely
and safely mix legacy and Power over LAN compatible devices on
their network.
The Switch supports 10Mbps Ethernet or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and
it runs both in half- and full- duplex mode using two pairs of Category
5 cables.
These RJ45 ports are Auto-MDI type port. The Switch can auto
transform to MDI-II or MDI-X type, so you can just make an easy
connection that without worrying if you are using a standard or
crossover RJ45 cable.
AC Power
The Switch uses the AC power supply 100-240V AC, 50-60 Hz. The
power switch is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the AC
power connector and the system fan. The Switch’s power supply will
adjust to the local power source automatically and may be turned on
without having any or all LAN segment cables connected.

IDENTIFYING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
