Chapter 2: Getting to Know the
10/100 Switch
Planning Your Network Layout
The 5-, 8-, and 16-Port 10/100 Switches differ in number of LEDs and ports.
Pictured here is the 5-Port 10/100 Switch; however, the other Switches are
similar in form.
System Green. The System LED will light up when the Switch is
powered on.
1-5, 1-8, or 1-16 Green. Each LED will light up when there is a connection
made through its corresponding port. It will flash when there
is activity on its corresponding port.
The network ports are located on the back panel of the Switch.
1-5, 1-8, or 1-16 These ports are connection points for PCs and other network
devices, such as additional switches.

Chapter 1: Introduction

This newly redesigned Linksys 5-, 8-, or 16-Port 10/100 Switch can
significantly increase your network traffic’s speed. A switch serves the same
function as a hub in a network design—tying your network equipment together.
But unlike a simple-minded hub which divides the network’s bandwidth among
all the attached devices, a switch delivers full network speeds at each port.
Installing this cost-effective 5-, 8-, or 16-Port 10/100 Switch can potentially
increase your network speed by five, eight, or sixteen times!
It's the perfect way of integrating 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet
devices, too. All ports are auto speed negotiating, and have automatic
MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, so you don’t have to worry about the cable
type. Each port independently negotiates for best speed and half- or full-duplex
mode, for up to 200Mbps of bandwidth per port. Fast store-and-forward
switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on into the network.
The new, ultra-compact case design is sure to fit into your workgroup
environment. Let the Linksys 5-, 8-, or 16-Port 10/100 Switch kick your 10/100
network into high gear.
•Ideal for Integrating Your 10BaseT and 100BaseTX Network Hardware
•5, 8, or 16 10/100 Ports Provide Dedicated Bandwidth in Half- or Full-
Duplex Modes
•Each Port Supports Auto MDI/MDI-X Cable Detection
•Compatible with All Major Network Operating Systems
•Advanced Store-and-Forward Packet Switching Optimizes Data Transfers
•Auto Partitioning Protects PCs from Downed Network Lines
•Signal Regeneration Ensures Data Transfer Integrity
•Limited Lifetime Warranty

Chapter 3: Connecting the
10/100 Switch
Planning Your Network Layout
This chapter will explain how to connect network devices to the Switch. For an
example of a typical network configuration, see the application diagram shown
in Figure 3-1.
When you connect your network devices, make sure you don’t exceed the
maximum cabling distances, which are listed in the following table:
Maximum Cabling Distances
*A hub refers to any type of 100Mbps hub, including regular hubs and stackable hubs. A 10Mbps hub
connected to another 10Mbps hub can span up to 100 meters (328 feet).

Set the Switch on its four rubber feet. For the 8- or 16-Port 10/100 Switch, you
can choose to hang it on a wall using its wall-mount slots. To use this option,
follow these instructions:
1. The wall-mount slots are two
crisscross slots on the Switch’s
bottom panel, as shown in
Figure 3-4. Attach two screws
to the wall, so that the Switch’s
wall-mount slots line up with
the two screws.
2. Maneuver the Switch so the
screws are inserted into the
two slots.
Congratulations!
The installation of the 10/100
Switch is complete.

2. Connect a Category 5 Ethernet
network cable to one of the
numbered ports on the Switch.
3. Connect the other end to a PC
or other network device.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to
connect additional devices.
5. Connect the supplied power
adapter to the power port on the
Switch’s side panel.
6. Plug the other end of the adapter into a power outlet.
7. Power on the devices connected to the Switch. Each active port’s
corresponding LED will light up on the Switch.
Proceed to the following section, “Placement Options.”

Chapitre 1 : Introduction
r
Remodelé dernièrement, ce commutateur 10/100 5, 8 ou 16 ports de Linksys
peut augmenter de façon significative le débit du trafic sur votre réseau. Un
commutateur tient le même rôle qu’un concentrateur au sein d’un réseau : il
relie les périphériques du réseau entre eux. Toutefois, au lieu d’agir
«naïvement » comme un concentrateur qui divise la bande passante du réseau
entre tous les périphériques connectés, un commutateur fournit un haut débit
réseau à chaque port. L’installation de ce commutateur 10/100 5, 8 ou 16 ports,
qui offre un excellent rapport coût/efficacité, peut potentiellement multiplier le
débit de votre réseau par 5, 8 ou 16 !
En outre, il permet également d’intégrer des périphériques Ethernet 10 Mbit/s
et Fast Ethernet 100 Mbit/s. Comme tous les ports peuvent négocier le débit et
détecter la liaison MDI/MDI-X automatiquement, vous n’avez plus à vous
préoccuper du type de câble. Chaque port négocie indépendamment le débit le
mieux adapté et le mode Full ou Semi Duplex pour une bande passante
atteignant 200 Mbit/s par port. La commutation rapide en différé empêche la
transmission des paquets endommagés sur le réseau.
Le nouveau boîtier ultra-compact ne peut que convenir à l’environnement de
votre groupe de travail. Permettez à votre réseau 10/100 de «passer la
cinquième» grâce au commutateur 10/100 5, 8 ou 16 ports de Linksys.
•Idéal pour intégrer vos périphériques réseau 10BaseT et 100BaseTX
•5, 8 ou 16 ports 10/100 offrant une bande passante dédiée en mode Full et
Semi Duplex
•Chaque port prend en charge la détection automatique des câbles MDI/MDI-X
•Compatible avec tous les principaux systèmes d’exploitation de réseau
•Lacommutation avancéede paquetsen différé optimise les transfertsde données
•Partitionnement automatique protégeant les PC des lignes réseau défectueuses
•La régénération du signal garantit l’intégrité du transfert des données
•Garantie à durée limitée

Les commutateurs 10/100 5, 8 et 16 ports ne possèdent pas le même nombre de
voyants et de ports. L’illustration ci-après représente un commutateur 10/100 5 ports.
Les autres commutateurs ont une forme similaire.
System Vert. Le voyant System (Système) s’allume lorsque le
commutateur est mis sous tension.
1-5,1-8 ou 1-16 Vert. Chaque voyant s’allume en cas de connexion via le port
correspondant. Il clignote lorsque le port correspondant est
utilisé.
Les ports réseau sont situés sur le panneau arrière du commutateur.
1-5,1-8 ou 1-16 Ces ports représentent les points de connexion des PC et
autres périphériques réseau, comme les commutateurs
supplémentaires.
