Model FS516/FS524 Fast Ethernet Switch Installation Guide

The NETGEAR™Model FS516 16-Port Fast Ethernet Switch and Model FS524

24-Port Fast Ethernet Switch provide you with a low-cost, high-performance

network solution and are designed to support power workgroups operating at

either 10 megabits per second (Mbps) or 100 Mbps.

Ethernet switches provide private, dedicated, 10 Mbps (or 100 Mbps) capacity

to each connected PC/server or hub/workgroup segment, which is significantly

higher than in a shared environment. The higher bandwidth enables the use of

applications such as multimedia, imaging, video, or high-performance client-

server functions among users who are spread out over the network.

With both the Model FS516 switch and the Model FS524 switch, improvement

is accomplished very easily, with no change to the desktop (the network

interface cards or software and the network wiring). As a result, the performance

upgrade and the applications it enables are obtained very quickly and at a low

cost.

The Model FS516 and Model FS524 switches have the following key features:

• Sixteen (Model FS516) or twenty-four (Model FS524) automatic speed-

sensing (autosensing) 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports to provide fast

information exchange, resource sharing, and client or peer-to-peer

communication using simple Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP)

cable

• Automatic address learning function to build the packet-

forwarding information table

The table contains up to 4,000 MAC addresses for the Model FS516 and

up to 8,000 MAC addresses for the Model FS524 (that is, the switch can

support networks with as many as 8,000 devices).

• Switch-selectable autonegotiating or full-duplex mode of operation

Full-duplex mode doubles throughput of point-to-point connections by

letting individual ports transmit and receive concurrently when the other

end also supports full-duplex mode. The default is half-duplex if the

connected device does not support N-way negotiation. The duplex toggle

switch can be set to full-duplex if the connected port is operating at full-

duplex mode.

• Wire-speed filtering and forwarding to provide “traffic cop” function by

directing traffic to the appropriate route without slowing down the traffic

Store-and-forward forwarding node to minimize erroneous packets on the

network

• Half-duplex backpressure

• Easy Plug-and-Play installation with no software to configure, which saves

time and minimizes the potential for configuration errors

LEDs

The table below describes the activity of the LEDs.

Vista RJ-45 Network Ports with Built-in LEDs

All of the ports on the switch are 10/100 Mbps capable autosensing Ethernet

ports. Each port supports only unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable using an 8-

pin RJ-45 plug. Each port uses vista RJ-45 connectors that have two LEDs—the

Link LED and the FDX LED.

Normal/Uplink Push Button

The Normal/Uplink push button on the front panel of the switch allows you to

select uplink (MDI) or normal (MDI-X) wiring for port 16 on the Model FS516

switch and port 24 on the Model FS524 switch. These ports are configured for

normal wiring to connect to a PC when the push button is in the out position.

When the push button is pressed in, these ports are configured for uplink wiring

to connect to another switch or to a hub, using a straight-through twisted pair

cable.

Rear Panel

The rear panel of the Model FS516/FS524 switch has full-duplex (FDX) and

auto-duplex (AUTO) toggle switches, fans for cooling, and a standard AC power

receptacle for the supplied power cord.

FDX/AUTO Duplex Toggle Switches

Full-duplex mode is supported for all 10/100 Mbps ports and allows a port to

transmit and receive data at the same time. Full-duplex operation applies only to

point-to-point access (for example, when a switch is connected to a PC, a server,

or another switch).

Setting the toggle switch to AUTO on the 10/100 Mbps port enables the port to

determine duplex mode automatically. In this mode, the 10/100 Mbps port

operates in either full- or half-duplex mode, depending on the operating mode of

the remote port. If supported by the remote node, the port will establish a 100

Mbps full-duplex link as the default. If the remote port cannot provide the

proper signal to indicate its own capability, the 10/100 Mbps port on the switch

defaults to half-duplex mode. Because repeaters and hubs use a common

collision domain for all communications and cannot communicate in full-duplex

mode, the associated 10/100 Mbps port on the switch should be set to auto-

duplex operation when connecting to these types of devices.

Setting the toggle switch to FDX on the 10/100 Mbps port enables the port to

determine the speed but will set the duplex mode to full-duplex.

Model FS516/FS524 Fast Ethernet Switch Installation Guide

The Model FS516/FS524 switch is designed to provide flexibility in configuring

your network connections. Each switch can be used as a standalone device or

can be used with 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps hubs or other interconnection devices in

various configurations. The configuration examples in this section illustrate the

integration of the switches in network environments of all sizes and types. These

examples include a network of a few workstations connected to a printer or a

segmented network with multiple users or workgroups and other networking

devices.

Desktop Switching

The Model FS516/FS524 switch is used as a desktop switch to build a small

network that enables users to have 100 Mbps access to a file server. If a full-

duplex adapter card is installed in the server or PC, a 200 Mbps connection is

possible on the port where the server or PC is connected.

Segment Switching and Bridging from 10 Mbps to 100 Mbps

The Model FS516/FS524 switch is used to segment a network into multiple connected pieces,

increasing overall bandwidth and throughput. Both switch models can segment networks that are

built with the NETGEAR Model DS508 and Model EN516 hubs and can function as bridges

connecting traditional 10BASE-T Ethernet networks to 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet networks.

Twisted Pair Cables

For two devices to communicate, the transmitter of each device must be

connected to the receiver of the other device. The crossover function is usually

implemented internally as part of the circuitry in the device. Most ports on

switches and repeaters have media-dependent interfaces with crossover ports.

These ports are referred to as MDI-X or normal ports. Computer and

workstation adapter cards are usually media-dependent interface ports referred

to as MDI or uplink ports.

These two figures illustrate the use of straight-through and crossover twisted

pair cables.

RJ-45 Connector

The RJ-45 connector (shown in the illustration with an RJ-45 plug) is used to

connect workstations, hubs, and switches through unshielded twisted pair cable.

The RJ-45 connector accepts four-pair Category 3 or Category 5 UTP cable.
