FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B

digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference

to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not

occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the

following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com Gigabit Ethernet switch. Thanks to dedicated

bandwidth of 1000 Mbits/sec for each port, your network will enjoy faster response

times and fewer bottlenecks. This Gigabit Ethernet switch automatically establishes the

fastest transfer speed for each device (1000, 100, or 10 Mbits/sec) and use half- and full-

duplex capabilities to optimize your network performance. Each port automatically

detects and adjusts for MDI (straight) or MDI-X (crossover) cables so there is no need for

a separate uplink port.

Features

• Complies with 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet, 802.3u Fast Ethernet, and 802.3 Ethernet

standards

• Migrates smoothly between 1000Mbits/sec, 100 Mbits/sec, and 10 Mbits/sec network

devices

• Capable of half- and full-duplex communication

• Auto-negotiation function determines the optimal transmission rate for each node

• Auto MDI/MDI-X detection allows straight or crossover cables to be used in any port

• Supports store-and-forward switching architecture and full wire speed forwarding and

filtering rates

•Supports flow control: IEEE 802.3x for full-duplex mode, back pressure for half-duplex

mode

• Backed by StarTech.com’s two-year warranty

Before You Begin

To ensure a quick and easy Gigabit Ethernet switch installation, please read through this

section carefully before attempting to install the switch.

WARNING! The Gigabit Ethernet switch must be installed and operated in an

environment with temperatures between 50-131ºF (10-55ºC) and humidity levels of 0-

90% (non-condensing). Make sure that the switch is kept away from heating sources and

that the vents at the side of the device are not blocked. Do not place any objects on top of

the device. Make sure that no water or moisture enters the unit. If necessary, use a

dehumidifier to reduce humidity near the device.

Contents

This package should contain:

• 1 x Gigabit Ethernet switch

• 1 x external power adapter

System Requirements

This Gigabit Ethernet switch can be connected to PC computers with Ethernet

networking cards, or other compatible switches, hubs, or servers.

Note: For each Gigabit network device you want to attach to the switch, you will need

UTP network cables that comply with EIA/TIA 568 specifications and Category 5e

(minimum for Gigabit transfer rates) patch cable. StarTech.com offers a wide range of

these cables in various lengths and colors to suit your network needs. StarTech.com also

carries a wide range of Ethernet cards for both PC and notebook computers. For product

information, as well as tips and ideas for setting up and running your network, visit

http://www.startech.com and click on the Networking tab near the top of your screen.

Installation

This section will guide you through the installation of your Gigabit Ethernet switch.

Please read through the instructions carefully and complete each step in the order listed.

1. Plug one end of your network cable into an open port at the rear of the switch.

2. Plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 port on your network device.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for any other devices you want to connect.

4. Plug one end of the the power adapter into an open outlet and plug the other end

into the DC connector at the rear of the device. The green Power LED on the front

of the switch should now be lit.

Monitoring Your Fast Ethernet Switch

The LEDs on the front of the switch are the best indication of the switch’s activity.

LED Color Status Description

PWR Green Lit Power is supplied

Power Off No power

LNK/ACT Green Lit Valid link established

Link/Activity Flashing Data packets received

Off No link

Speed Green Lit Port running at 1000 Mbits/sec

Yellow Lit Port running at 100 Mbits/sec

Off Port running at 10 Mbits/sec

Troubleshooting

Power LED is not lit.

• Check that the power cord is properly connected at both ends.

Link/Activity LED is not lit when connected to a 1000 or 100 Mbits/sec device.

• Make sure the device is turned on.

• Make sure the network cable is properly connected at both ends.

• Make sure that your network cables comply with EIA/TIA 568 and Category

5e specifications.

If problems persist, power down all devices and disconnect all plugs from the switch.

Wait at least ten seconds and plug the power adapter back into the switch. Then plug the

devices back into the switch and power them back up.
