Welcome

Gigabit 8-Port Workgroup Switch

Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Linksys Gigabit 8-Port Workgroup Switch. The Switch delivers non-blocking, wire

speed switching for your 10, 100, and 1000Mbps network clients, so all workstations will perform at their

maximum speeds.

Gigabit speeds are perfect for graphics, multimedia, and other applications that have to quickly move large files

across the network. Connect your Gigabit-equipped workstations to the Switch’s 10/100/1000 ports, so they will

have full-duplex, dedicated bandwidth of up to 1000Mbps, while the other clients continue to run at their current

10/100Mbps speeds.

Use the instructions in this User Guide to help you install the Switch. These instructions should be all you need to

get the most out of the Gigabit 8-Port Workgroup Switch.

Ports

10/100/1000

ETHERNET 1-8 The Switch is equipped with eight auto-sensing, Ethernet network ports, which use RJ-45

connectors. These ports support auto MDI/MDIX cable detection and network speeds of

10Mbps, 100Mbps, and 1000Mbps. They can operate in half and full-duplex modes. Auto-

sensing technology enables each port to automatically detect the speed of the device

connected to it (10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 1000Mbps), and adjust its speed and duplex

accordingly.

Power The Power port is where you will connect the included power adapter.

NOTE: If you need to reset the Switch, unplug the power adapter from the

back of the Switch. Wait a few seconds and then reconnect it.

Chapter 3: Connecting the Switch

Overview

This chapter will explain how to connect network devices to the Switch. For an example of a typical network

configuration, see the application diagram shown below.

When you connect your network devices, make sure you don’t exceed the maximum cabling distances, which are

listed in the following table:

*A hub refers to any type of 100Mbps hub, including regular hubs and stackable hubs. A 10Mbps hub connected

to another 10Mbps hub can span up to 100 meters (328 feet).

Chapter 3: Connecting the Switch

Before You Install the Switch...

Gigabit 8-Port Workgroup Switch

Before You Install the Switch...

When you choose a location for the Switch, observe the following guidelines:

• Make sure that the Switch will be accessible and that the cables can be easily connected.

• Keep cabling away from sources of electrical noise, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures.

• Position the Switch away from sources of water and moisture.

Placement Options

Before connecting cables to the Switch, first you will physically install the Switch.

There are two ways to place the Switch. The first way is to place it horizontally on a surface, so it sits on its four

rubber feet. The second way is to mount it on a wall. The wall-mount option is described in further detail below.

Wall-Mount Option

The Switch has two wall-mount slots on its bottom panel. The distance between two adjacent slots is

2.36 inches (60 mm).

Before you begin, make sure you have two screws that are size #4—this indicates a diameter measurement of

0.112 inches (2.845 mm).

1. Determine where you want to mount the Switch.

2. Drill two holes into the wall. Make sure adjacent holes are 2.36 inches (60 mm) apart.

3. Insert a screw into each hole, and leave 0.2 inches (5 mm) of its head exposed.

4. Maneuver the Switch so the wall-mount slots line up with the two screws.

5. Place the wall-mount slots over the screws and slide the Switch down until the screws fit snugly into the

wall-mount slots.

Proceed to the section, Connecting the Switch.”
