The Switch is a 10/100/1000 Mbps multi-port switch that can be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks. The Switch is a store-andforward device that offers low latency for high-speed networking. The Switch is designed for workgroups, departments or backbone computing environments for small businesses. Figure 1 Front Panel GS1100-16 GS1100-24 The GS1100-24 has two mini-GBIC ports for uplink connection. Use mini-GBIC transceivers in these slots for connections to backbone Ethernet switches. The Switch has a built-in algorithm that automatically assigns priority to received packets. It can operate in low power idle mode in compliance with IEEE 802. 3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). 1. 2 Features The following are the essential features of the Switch. · Conforms to IEEE 802. 3, 802. 3u, 802. 3ab and 802. 3x standards. GS1100 Series User's Guide 9 Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch · Auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 ports. · Auto-sensing crossover for all 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 ports. · Supports N-Way protocol for speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (Half/Full) auto-detection. · Supports store-and-forward switching. · Supports automatic address learning. · Full wire speed forwarding rate. · An additional CoS feature (8 queues). · Embedded 8K MAC address table providing 8000 MAC addresses entries. Refer to Chapter 4 on page 25 for the product specifications. 1. 3 Applications This section provides two network topology examples in which the Switch is used. 1. 3. 1 Standalone Workgroup In this application, the Switch is an ideal solution for small networks where rapid growth can be expected in the near future. The Switch can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers directly to the Switch's port or connect other switches to the Switch. In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server. [. . . ] The network cables should not be longer than the limit of 100 meters. Too many hubs between the computers in the network A loop in the data path Too many hubs (or repeaters) between the connected computers in the network may increase the number of network collision or other network problems. Remove unnecessary hubs from the network. A data path loop forms when there is more than one path or route between two networked computers. This results in broadcast storms that will severely affect your network performance. Make sure there are no loops in your network topology. 24 GS1100 Series User's Guide CHAPTER These are the product specifications. 4 Product Specifications Table 3 Product Specifications Dimension GS1100-16: 215 mm (W) x 133 mm (D) x 42 mm (H) GS1100-24: 441 mm (W) x 131 mm (D) x 44 mm (H) Weight GS1100-16: 1 kg GS1100-24: 2 kg Standard IEEE802. 3 10 BASE-T IEEE802. 3u 100 BASE-TX IEEE802. 3ab 1000 BASE-T IEEE802. 3x full-duplex flow control IEEE802. 3az (EEE) IEEE802. 3z 1000 BASE-X (GS1100-24 only) Interface GS1100-16: 16 x 10/100/1000 Mbps auto MDI/MDI-X RJ-45 switching ports GS1100-24: 24 x 10/100/1000 Mbps auto MDI/MDI-X RJ-45 switching ports 2 x Mini-GBIC open slots Cable connections RJ-45 (10 BASE-T): Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP RJ-45 (100 BASE-TX): Category 5 UTP/STP RJ-45 (1000 BASE-T): Category 5e, 6 or enhanced UTP/STP Network Data Rate Transmission Mode Data Forwarding Rate LED Indications 10/100/1000 Mbps Auto-negotiation 10/100 Mbps: Full-duplex, Half-duplex 1000 Mbps: Full-duplex 14880 pps for 10 Base-T 148800 pps for 100 Base-Tx 1488000 pps for 1000 Base-T System: PWR Ports: LINK/ACT Memory GS1100-16: 8K MAC entries, 256 K bytes buffer Memory GS1100-24: 8K MAC entries, 448 K bytes buffer Memory GS1100 Series User's Guide 25 Chapter 4 Product Specifications Table 3 Product Specifications Jumbo Frame Operating Temperature Storage Temperature Operating Humidity Power Supply 9K bytes 0 ~ 50 oC -40 ~ 70 oC 10 % - 95 % (non-condensing) Power rating: 100-240 V ~50/60 Hz 0. 5 A Max Power consumption: GS1100-16: 6. 4 W GS1100-24: 16. 2 W Safety EMC EN 60950-1 FCC Part15 (Class A) CE EMC (Class A) 26 GS1100 Series User's Guide APPENDIX Copyright Copyright © 2010 by ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
