2. INSTALLATION
This section describes the functionalities of the Fast Ethernet Switch’s
components and guides how to install it on the desktop. Basic knowledge
of networking is assumed. Please read this chapter completely before
continuing.
2.1 Product Description
The PLANET Fast Ethernet Switch is 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch with
16/24 ports respectively, cost-effective; the Fast Ethernet Switch can handle
extremely large amounts of data in a secure topology linking to a backbone or
high capacity servers. The Fast Ethernet Switch has 8K MAC Address table
and provides 1.25Mbit buffer memory. The Fast Ethernet Switch offers wire-
speed packets transfer performance without risk of packet loss. The high
data throughput of the Fast Ethernet Switch makes it ideal for most Fast
environments, especially while network upgrades to a Fast environment.
All RJ-45 copper interfaces support 10/100Mbps Auto-Negotiation for optimal
speed detection through RJ-45 Category 5 or 3 cables. Support is standard
for Auto-MDI/MDI-X that can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet
device without requiring special straight or crossover cables.
The Flow Control function allows your Fast Ethernet Switch supported routers
and servers to directly connect to this Switch for fast, reliable data transfer.
2.1.1 Product Overview
The PLANET Fast Ethernet Switch with 16/24 RJ-45 10/100Mbps ports
for high-speed network connectivity. The Fast Ethernet Switch can also
automatically identify and determine the correct transmission speed and half/
full duplex mode of the attached devices with its 16/24 ports.
The Fast Ethernet Switch 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, the Fast Ethernet Switch could recognize up
to 8K different MAC address and enables ltering and forwarding at full wire
speed.

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 the Switch
This part describes how to install your Fast Ethernet Switch and make
connections to it. Please read the following topics and perform the procedures
in the order being presented.
Note: This Fast Ethernet Switch does not need software configuration.
2.2.1 Desktop Installation
To install the Fast Ethernet Switch on desktop, simply follow the next steps:
Step1: Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the Fast
Ethernet Switch, as shown in Figure 2-4.
Figure 2-4 Attaching the rubber feet to the Fast Ethernet Switch
Step2: Place the Fast Ethernet Switch on desktop near an AC power
source.
Step3: Keep enough ventilation space between the Fast Ethernet Switch and
the surrounding objects.
Note: When choosing a location, please keep in mind the environmental
restrictions discussed in Chapter 1, Section 1.4 Product Specication.

Step4: Connect your Fast Ethernet 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 Fast Ethernet 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 Fast Ethernet Switch requires UTP Category 5
network cabling with RJ-45 tips. For more information, please see the
Cabling Specication in Appendix A.
Step5: Supply power to the Fast Ethernet Switch.
A. Connect one end of the power cable to the Fast Ethernet Switch.
B. Connect the power plug of the power cable to a standard wall outlet.
When the Fast Ethernet Switch receives power, the Power LED should
remain solid Green.
2.2.2 Rack Mounting
To install the Fast Ethernet Switch in a 19-inch standard rack, follow the
instructions described below.
Step1: Place your Fast Ethernet Switch on a hard at surface, with the front
panel positioned towards your front side.
Step2: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the Fast Ethernet Switch
with supplied screws attached to the package. Figure 2-5 shows how
to attach brackets to one side of the Fast Ethernet Switch.
Figure 2-5 Attaching the brackets to the Fast Ethernet 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.
