Introduction The CheetahSwitch 3008B and CheetahSwitch 3016B are perfect for moving workgroups from conventional 10 Mbps Ethernet to multiple-segment 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet. These switches deliver dedicated 100 Mbps links to each attached LAN segment (independent collision domain) or to any PC attached directly to the switch – all with conventional cabling and adapters. They completely eliminate the bottlenecks of shared 10 Mbps Ethernet networks by providing a wide bandwidth.
Installing the Switch The following figure shows the components of these switches: Port Status Indicators Link/Act - On: link/enable; Off: no link; Flashing: data being transmitted/received 100M - On: 100 Mbps: Off: 10 Mbps FDX - On: full duplex: Off: half duplex Power Indicator 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 Ports 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 CheetaSwitch AC-ES3016B Power Link/Act 100M FDX 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 100-240V~50-60Hz 0.
Connecting the Switch System Stacking Switches on a Flat Surface The CheetahSwitch can be placed anywhere there is enough flat space, such as on a table or desktop.

Installing the Switch 2. 3. Prepare straight-through shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 plugs at both ends. Use 100-ohm Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for standard 10 Mbps Ethernet connections, or 100-ohm Category 5 cable for 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet connections. Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of the network interface card, and the other end to any available RJ-45 port on the switch. All RJ-45 ports support 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps Ethernet connections.
Verifying Port Status Verifying Port Status The front panel of the switch provides status LEDs for “at-a-glance” system monitoring. The following table details the functions of the various indicators: CheetaSwitch AC-ES3016B Power Link/Act 100M FDX 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 CheetaSwitch AC-ES3008B Power 100M Link/Act FDX 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 Port and System Status LEDs LED Power Condition Status On The switch is receiving power.
Installing the Switch Applications This switch segments your network, significantly increasing both bandwidth and throughput. Any port on the switch can be attached to a hub (a shared collision domain) or provide a dedicated link to a single network device (such as a workstation or server). When a port on the switch is connected to a hub (a 10 or 100 Mbps repeater), the bandwidth provided by that port is shared by all the devices connected to the attached hub.
Applications High-Speed Switch Links – In this application a 200 Mbps full-duplex link is made to a second CheetahSwitch 3016B.

Troubleshooting Diagnosing Switch Indicators Symptom Power LED does not light after power on. Probable Causes Power outlet or power cord may be defective. Possible Solutions • Check for loose connections. • Check the power outlet by using it for another device. • Replace the power cord. Symptom Link LED does not light after connection is made. Probable Causes Switch port, network card or cable may be defective. Possible Solutions • Check that the switch and attached device are both powered on.
