Ether-FSH2402NT 24+2 Mixed Giga port Switch User’s Manual
FCC Warning This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the regulations for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with this user’s guide, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
UL Warning a) Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature- If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature (Tmra).

ABOUT THIS GUIDE Congratulations on your purchase of the 26-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit & Ethernet Switch with 2 × 1000BASE-T plus 24 × 10/100BASE-TX ports. This device integrates Gigabit, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highly flexible package. Purpose This guide discusses how to install your 26-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit & Ethernet Switch with 2×1000BASET plus 24×10/100BASE-TX ports.
I N T R O D U CT I O N This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet switching technology. Fast Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times.
Gigabit Ethernet Technology Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet.
Switching Technology Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments. Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity available to users on a local area network.

UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the Switch. To avoid causing any damage to the Switch, we recommend that you read this chapter carefully before starting installation. Unpacking Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack the items inside.
Installation The site where you place the Switch may greatly affect its performance. When installing, take the following into your consideration: 9 Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges. 9 Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
Figure 1. Attach the adhesive rubber pads to the bottom Rack Mounting The Switch can be mounted in an EIA standard-size, 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipments. Attach the mounting brackets to both sides of the Switch (one at each side), and secure them with the provided screws. Figure 2.
Then, use screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the Switch in the rack. Figure 3. Mount the Switch in the rack Connecting Network Cable The Switch supports 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet. It runs full/half duplex transfer mode for 10/100Mbps and full duplex transfer mode for 1000Mbps. These ports are Auto-MDI type port. The Switch can auto transform to MDI-II or MDI-X type, so you can just make an easy connection that without worrying if you are using a standard or crossover cable.
60 Hz. The power switch is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the AC power connector and the system fan. The switch’s power supply will adjust to the local power source automatically and may be turned on without having any or all LAN segment cables connected. I D E N T I F Y IN G E X T E RN A L C O M P O N E N T S This chapter identifies all the major external components of the Switch. Both the front and rear panels are shown below, with a description of each panel features.
9 LED Indicators Refer to the next chapter Understanding LED Indicators for detailed information on the meaning of each LED indicator. 9 10/100BASE-TX Twisted-Pair Ports (Port1~24) These ports supports network speeds of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half- and full- duplex transfer modes.
