ZyXEL Communications GS1100-16 - EDITION 1 User manual

The ZyXEL Switch 1100 Series is positioned to deliver a solution that requires no switch
management for office environments demanding silent operation and green technology.
It provides plug-and-play simplicity for high-bandwidth connectivity.
The ZyXEL Switch 1100 Series consists of two unmanaged switches: the GS1100-16 and
GS1100-24.The GS1100-16 is a 16-port 10/100/1000 switch, and the GS1100-24 is a 24-port
10/100/1000 switch with 24 10/100/1000 ports and 2 Gigabit open SFP slots.The Switch 1100
Series protects your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward
migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.

Key Benefits
IEEE Energy-Efficient-Ethernet (EEE) compliance
The Switch 1100 Series offers environmental efficiency with Gigabit Ethernet speeds critical for
next-generation network applications.To comply with the IEEE 802.3az standard,the Switch 1100
Series provides power saving functions to reduce energy consumption to help business save cost.
Inactive link detection
The power usage adjustment feature automatically reduces power usage when any shut down
network device or inactive link is detected.That is, power consumption of the Series can be adjusted
according to the link status or the number of active network devices when possible.
Cable length detection
The devices equipped with this green feature can automatically detect the length of connected
Ethernet cables and adjust power usage accordingly.The shorter the cable length, the less power it
consumes.
Fanless design
Since the fanless design ensures quiet operation in small office spaces, the Switch 1100 Series is the
perfect solution for small business and SOHO office deployments.
Gigabit to the desktop
The ZyXEL Switch 1100 Series comprises of unmanaged Gigabit switches that provide an
inexpensive desktop Gigabit solution for significant performance boost thanks to the higher
network bandwidth. In addition, the Switch 1100 Series is equipped with two SFP slots: the 24-port
model provides fibre optics connection while the 16-port model offers copper lines (SFP only
available at GS1100-24).The 16-port model comes in desktop,wall-mountable or rack-mountable
enclosure design.
The flexible connection options (copper lines or fibre optics) enable the switches to easily fit
different applications and environments.The Switch 1100 Series is an ideal solution for
bandwidth-intensive applications such as high-resolution photo transmission,video/audio
streaming and downloading as well as server farm connections.

Power-packed delivery
With the non-blocking switching architecture, the Switch 1100 Series filters and forwards packets at wire speed for maximum throughput. Features
such as Address learning and aging, 802.3x flow control adjust traffic congestion and ensure reliable data transmission.The Switch 1100 Series also
supports jumbo frames of up to 9k bytes for extra large transfers.
Easy installation
The Switch 1100 Series offers plug-and-play connectivity and easy installation. With the Auto MDI/MDI-X feature,it eliminates the need for crossover
cables when connecting to another switch or hub; the Auto-negotiation feature senses the link speed of a network device and intelligently adjusts
for compatibility and optimal performance.
