Chapter 3, Identifying External Components. Describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the Switch. Chapter 4, Connecting the Switch. Tells how you can connect the Switch to your Ethernet network. Appendix A, Technical Specifications. Lists the technical (general, physical and environmental, and performance) specifications of the Switch.
NTRODUCTION This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast 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.
For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of eliminating the problem of chaining hubs beyond the “two- repeater limit.” A switch can be used to split parts of the network into different collision domains, making it possible...
All ports support up to 200Mbps. Any one of its five ports may be used to cascade to an additional switch to open a Full-Duplex Fast Ethernet pipe. A single uplink port is integrated into the DSS-5+ to negate the need for a cross-over or other special networking cable when cascading to another switch.

The Switch is an unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch that offers solutions accelerating small Ethernet workgroup bandwidth. Other key features are: Uplink/ MDI-II (media dependent interface) port for uplink to another switch, hub or repeater.
The surface must support at least 1.5 Kg for the Switch. The power outlet should be w ithin 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Switch. Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the power adapter.
DC Power Jack: Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter. Check the techni cal specification section for information about the AC power input voltage. Since the switch does not include a power switch, plugging its power adapter into a power outlet will immediately power XTERNAL...
If you need to connect another device with an MDI-X jack, such as another switch or an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hub, you should use a crossover cable, or make the connection using the MDI-II jack (described below).

green as Fast Ethernet data is transmitted or received. The indicator lights amber when the port is connected to a 10Mbps Ethernet station or other network device. The indicator blinks amber as Ethernet data is transmitted or received.
This chapter describes how to connect the DSS-5+ to your Fast Ethernet network. PC to Switch A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3,4, or5 UTP/STP straight -through cable. operation Category 5 must be used. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10Mb Ethernet or 100Mb Fast Ethernet NIC) should be connected to any of the 5 ports (1x - 5x) for the DSS-5+.
If a hub is not equipped with an uplink (MDI-II) port, connection can be made using either straight cable or crossover cable. A. Using straight cable When using straight cable, the connection can be made from the uplink (MDI-II) port of the Switch to any port of the Hub.
B. Using crossover cable When using crossover cable, the connection can be made from any ports of the Switch to any port of the Hub. Switch to Switch (other devices) The Switch can be connected to another switch or other devices (routers, bridges, etc.) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5...
Port Speed & Duplex Mode After plugging the selected cable to a specific port, the system uses auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new twisted-pair connection: attached device does support auto- negotiation or has auto-negotiation disabled, an auto- sensing process is initiated to select the speed and set the duplex mode to half-duplex.
