APPLICATION EXAMPLES
The switch is not only designed to segment your network, but also to provide a
wide range of options in setting up network connections. Some typical
applications are described below.
COLLAPSED BACKBONE
The switch is an excellent choice for mixed Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit
Ethernet installations where significant growth is expected in the near future.
You can easily build on this basic configuration, adding direct full-duplex
connections to workstations or servers. When the time comes for further
expansion, just connect to another hub or switch using one of the Fast Ethernet
ports built into the front panel or a Gigabit Ethernet port on a plug-in SFP
transceiver.
In the figure below, the switch is operating as a collapsed backbone for a small
LAN. It is providing dedicated 10 Mbps full-duplex connections to workstations,
100 Mbps full-duplex connections to power users, and 1 Gbps full-duplex
connections to servers.
Figure 6: Collapsed Backbone

REMOTE CONNECTIONS WITH FIBER CABLE
Fiber optic technology allows for longer cabling than any other media type. A
1000BASE-SX (MMF) link can connect to a site up to 550 meters away, a
1000BASE-LX (SMF) link up to 10 km, and a 1000BASE-LH link up to 80 km.
This allows the switch to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct
connectivity for a widespread LAN.
The figure below illustrates the switch connecting multiple segments with fiber
cable.

Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver

INSTALLING AN OPTIONAL SFP TRANSCEIVER
Figure 12: Inserting an SFP Transceiver into a Slot
The SFP slots support the following optional SFP transceivers:
◆1000BASE-SX
◆1000BASE-LX
◆1000BASE-LH
To install an SFP transceiver, do the following:
1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP
transceiver type.
2. Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot
connector facing down. Note that SFP transceivers are keyed so they can
only be installed in one orientation.
3. Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.

C HAPTER 3 | Installing the Switch
Connecting to a Power Source
– 44 –
CONNECTING TO APOWER SOURCE
To connect a switch to a power source:
1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the AC socket located at the back of
the switch.
Figure 13: Power Socket
2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin, AC power source.
N OTE : SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to
be powered off before installing or removing a transceiver. However,
always first disconnect the network cable before removing a
transceiver.
N OTE : SFP transceivers are not provided in the switch package.

4MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS
CONNECTING NETWORK DEVICES
The switch is designed to be connected remote devices using optional
1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, or 1000BASE-LH SFP transceivers. It may also be
connected to 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps network cards in PCs and servers, as well
as to other switches and hubs.
TWISTED-PAIR DEVICES
Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45
connectors at both ends. Use Category 5, 5e or 6 cable for 1000BASE-T
connections, Category 5 or better for 100BASE-TX connections, and Category 3
or better for 10BASE-T connections.
CABLING GUIDELINES
The RJ-45 ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout
configuration, so you can use standard straight-through twisted-pair cables to
connect to any other network device (PCs, servers, switches, routers, or hubs).
See Appendix B for further information on cabling.
C AUTION : Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This
will damage the switch. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45
connectors that conform to FCC standards.
