INSTALLATION
This section describes the functionalities of FNSW-1602/FNSW-2402 components and
guides how to install it on the desktop or shelf. Basic knowledge of networking is assumed.
Please read this chapter completely before continuing.
2.1 Product Description
The PLANET Switch provides 16/24 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet ports with 2 open slots
(port#17/25, port#18/26). The two open slots can be installed by either 10/100Base-TX
TP port or 100Base-FX ber-optic in distance from 100 meters (TP), 2 kilometers (Multi-
mode, ST or SC) up to 15 kilometers (Single-mode, SC). The PLANET Switch is with non-
blocking backplane and simplies the task of upgrading your LAN to cater for increased
bandwidth demand.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET Switch is Fast Ethernet switch with 16/24 RJ-45 10/100Mbps ports and up to
two 100Mbps ber ports or two 10/100Mbps TP ports for cost effective high-performance
network connectivity. With its 4.5/8.8Gbps non-blocking switch fabric, the PLANET Switch
can also provide a local, high bandwidth.
This products also supports store-and-forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency
and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary trafc and relieves congestion on critical
network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, FNSW-1602/FNSW-
2402 could recognize up to 2K/6K different MAC address and enables ltering and
forwarding at full wire speed.

2.1.4 LED Indicators
LED Color Function
PWR Green Lit: Power on
LNK/ACT Green Lit: indicate the link through that port is successfully
established
Blink: indicate that the switch is actively sending or
receiving data over that port
100 Orange Lit: indicate that the port is operating at 100Mbps.
Off: indicate that the port is operating at 10Mbps.
2.1.5 Extension Slots
The Switch extension slots #17, #18 or #25, #26 can be a 10/100Base-TX or 100Base-FX
switching port as the extension module installed.
Note: The 100Base-FX modules only support full-duplex mode.
2.1.6 FNSW-1602 and FNSW-2402 Rear Panel
The rear panel of the Switch indicates an AC inlet power socket and power switch, which
accepts input power from 100 to 240VAC, 50-60Hz.

Power Notice:
1.The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work till it is
powered. If your networks should active all the time, please consider using
UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device. It will prevent you from
network data loss or network downtime.
2.In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect
your switch from being damaged by unregulated surge or current to the
Switch or the power adapter.
2.2 Installing a Switch
This part describes how to install your Fast Ethernet Switch and make connections to the
switch. Please read the following topics and perform the procedures in the order being
presented.
To install your Switch on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps.

2.2.1 Desktop Installation
To install a Switch on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps:
Step1: Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the switch.
Step2: Place the Switch on a desktop or shelf near an AC power source.
Step3: Keep enough ventilation space between the switch and the surrounding
objects
Note: When choosing a location, please keep in mind the environmental re-
strictions discussed in Chapter 1, Section 4, Specification.
Step4: Connect your Switch to network devices
A. Connect one end of a standard network cable to the 10/100 RJ-45 ports
on the front of the Switch.
B. Connect the other end of the cable to the network devices such as printer
servers, workstations or routers…etc.
Note: Connection to the Switch requires UTP Category 5 network cabling with
RJ-45 tips. For more information, please see the Cabling Specification
in Appendix A.
Step5: Supply power to the Switch.
A. Connect one end of the power cable to the Switch.
B. Connect the power plug of the power cable to a standard wall outlet then
power on the Switch.
When the Switch receives power, the Power LED should remain solid Green.
2.2.2 Rack Mounting
To install the switch in a 19-inch standard rack, follow the instructions described below.
Step1: Place your Switch on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned
towards your front side.
Step2: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the switch with supplied
screws attached to the package. Figure 2-4 shows how to attach brackets
to one side of Switch.

Caution:
You must use the screws supplied with the mounting brackets. Damage caused
to the parts by using incorrect screws would invalidate your warranty.
Step3: Secure the brackets tightly.
Step4: Follow the same steps to attach the second bracket to the opposite side.
Step5: After the brackets are attached to the switch, use suitable screws to se-
curely attach the brackets to the rack, as shown in Figure 2-5.

Step 6: Proceed with the steps 4 and steps 5 of section 2.2.1 Desktop Installation
to connect the network cabling and supply power to your switch.
