Unpacking Information
Thank you for purchasing the 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch.
Before you start, please verify that your package contains the following
items:
1. One 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch
2. One power cord
3. One RS-232 Cable (optional)
4. Rack-mount brackets and screws (optional)
5. User’s Manual
Introduction
General Description
Easily boosting your networking throughput, the Gigabit Web smart switch
provides you 8* 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit ports that lead you to a real
Gigabit connection. Users are now able to transfer high
bandwidth-demanded files faster and hence get a real efficiency
improvement with the user-friendly Web-based management interface.
The management functionalities provide efficient network usage. VLAN
reduces the collisions in network. Port Aggregation enlarges the bandwidth
of backbone connection. QoS is supported to secure the bandwidth for some
bandwidth-demanded services including VoIP or videoconference. Flow
control also contributes for ensuring the correctness of data transmitting.
The 802.3x and backpressure flow control mechanisms work respectively
for full and half duplex modes.
Sufficient compatibility enhances easy installation and maintenance. The
switch supports Nway auto-negotiation protocol, which detects the
networking speed (either 10/100/1000 Mbps) and the duplex modes (Full or
Half duplex mode) automatically and do an immediately adjustment to
advance the capability. Auto-MDI/MDI-X function alleviates the effort to use
crossover cables.Users need not to prepare crossover cables for equipment
connectivity. Also, rich diagnostic LEDs are providedfor users to get
real-time information of the connection status that helps to do quick
response and correction.

Installing Network Cables
1. Crossover or straight-through cable: All the ports on the switch
support Auto-MDI/MDI-X functionality. Both straight-through or
crossover cables can be used as the media to connect the switch with
PCs as well as other devices like switches, hubs or router.
2. Category 3,4,5 or 5eUTP/STP cable: To make a valid connection and
obtain the optimal performance. An appropriate cable that corresponds
to different transmitting/receiving speed is required. To choose a
suitable cable, please refer to the following table.
Media Speed Wiring

Functional Description
Jumbo Frame
With Jumbo Frame supported, it is allowed for the switch to transport
identical data in fewer frames. Hence helps to ensure fewer overheads,
shorten processing time, and reduce interrupts.
Note: To enable Jumbo Frame, Flow Control should be enabled in advance.
Flow Control and Back Pressure
Flow controland Back Pressure both contributes for lower and higher speed
devices to communicate to each other hence ensures the correctness of
data transmitting. The 802.3x flow control and Back Pressure mechanisms
work respectively for full and half duplex modes.Flow control can be
enabled or disabled on a per-port basis.
Mirror
The Mirror function provides network administrator to monitor the traffic. By
forwarding a copy of the packets that transferred by the source port, the
monitoring port received all the packets and hence is able to monitor the
traffic of this specific port.
VLAN
With VLAN supported, the network can be segmented in groups to reduce
the collisions from widely broadcasting. The device supports 802.1Q tag
based VLAN, which add tags to the header of the packet to classify their
VLANs.
Trunk (Aggregation)
The Trunk functionality integrates several ports to enlarge the bandwidth
that helps to boost the backbone connectivity.
Quality of Service (QoS)
The QoS service classifies packets into different precedence. The packets
are transmitted and received by their classified priorities. This mechanism
helps high bandwidth demanded applications such as VoIP to get an
unobstructed connection.
SNMP
This device is SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol)-management
supported. This allowsthis product to be monitored or inspected by a SNMP
management station.
