Chapter 1. Introduction of the Product
Thank you for choosing the KS108 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch.
1.1 Overview of the Product
The KS108 architecture is the optimal solution for consumer switching needs with its support for
high-performance line rate capabilities and ability to identify and prioritize different data packet types within
the switch while simultaneously assigning voice packets a higher priority for outbound communications. The
KS108 is poised to drive the unmanaged and Smart switch, WLAN router, and CPE/Gateway markets with
its comprehensive Layer 2 feature set, support for both DSL/cable modem and WLAN connectivity, and an
industry-leading switching capacity—all on a single chip.
1.2 Features
Complies with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u standards
8 10/100Mbps Auto-Negotiation RJ45 ports supporting Auto-MDI/MDIX
Supports IEEE802.3x flow control for Full Duplex mode and backpressure for Half Duplex mode
Supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging
LED indicators for monitoring power, link, activity
Plastic case, desktop or wall-mounting design
External Power Adapter supply
Chapter 2. Installation
2.1 Mounting the Switch on a Desk
To install the Switch, please follow the steps:
1) You can place the Switch on a flat desk.
2) Please inspect the Power Adapter carefully and make sure that it is properly connected to a
power source.
3) Ensure adequate ventilation space around the switch for dissipating heat and air.
Note:
Please avoid any heavy thing placed on the switch.

2.2 Power On
Powering on the Switch, it will automatically initialize and its LED indicators will respond as
follows:
1) All of the Link/Act LED indicators will flash momentarily, which represents a resetting of the
system.
2) The Power LED indicator will light all the time.
Note:
If the LED indicators don’t respond as described above, please check the power supply and its connection.
Chapter 3. Identifying External Components
This Chapter describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the Switch.

Appendix B: Troubleshooting
1. The Power LED is not lit
Check to see if the power cord is connected to the Switch properly, and make
sure the power source is ON.
2. The Link/Act LED is not lit when a device is connected to the
corresponding port
Check to see if the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the Switch and
the device, and verify the connected device is turned on and working well. Make
sure the cable is not longer than 100 meters (328 feet)
