[. . . ] The box should contain the following items: One DSS-5+ 5-port 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch One External Power Adapter Four Rubber Feet This Manual If any item is missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for a replacement. Setup The setup of the DSS-5+ can be performed using the following steps: The power outlet should be within 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. Do not cover the ventilation holes on the sides of the Switch, and make sure there is adequate ventilation around it. Do not place heavy objects on the switch. 6 IDENTIFYING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Front Panel The figure below shows the front panel of the DSS-5+. DSS-5+ 10/100Mb Fast Ethernet Switch LED Indicators Power Indicator (PWR): This green indicator light is on when the DSS-5+ is receiving power; otherwise, it is off. Collision : As collision occur on any port of the Switch it will blink. Collisions are normal in an Ethernet network. 100Mbps Link/Activity, 10Mbps Link/Activity Indicator (100 Link/Act (green), 10 Link/Act (amber): This LED indicator light is green when the port is connected to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet station. The green indicator blinks as Fast Ethernet data is transmitted or received. The indicator light is amber when the port is connected to a 10Mbps Ethernet station, or other network device. The amber indicator blinks as Ethernet data is transmitted or received. 7 Rear Panel DSS-5+ 10/100Mb Fast Ethernet Switch Auto MDI/MDI-X Ports: All ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection. The AutoMDI/MDI-X function makes it simple to connect to the switch--just plug either a Crossover or Straight-Through CAT5 cable into any port. DC Power Jack: Power is supplied through an external DC power adapter. Check the technical specification section for information about the DC power input voltage. Since the DSS-5+ does not require a power button, plugging its power adapter into a power outlet will immediately power it on. 8 CONNECTING THE SWITCH PC to DSS-5+ A computer can be connected to the DSS-5+ via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A computer equipped with a RJ-45 10/100Mbps port can be connected to any of the five DSS-5+ ports. The LED indicators for the PC connection depend on the capability of the computer's Ethernet card. If the LED indicators are not lit after making a proper connection, check the computer's Ethernet card, the cable, and the DSS-5+'s conditions and connections. Hub to DSS-5+ A hub (10 or 100BASE-TX) can be connected to the DSS-5+ via a twopair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. For 100Mbps operation a Category 5 cable must be used. The connection is accomplished from any port of the hub to any port of the DSS-5+. DSS-5+ to other devices The DSS-5+ can be connected to another switch or other devices (routers, bridges, etc. ) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A Category 5 cable must be used for 100Mbps operation. The connection can be accomplished from any (MDI-X) port on the DSS-5+ to any of the 10Mbps or 100Mbps (MDI-X) ports on another switch or other devices. 9 Port Speed & Duplex Mode After plugging the selected cable to a specific port, the system uses autonegotiation to determine the transmission mode, auto-detecting the network speed (10Mbps or 100Mbps) for any new twisted-pair connection.
