Chapter 2 Product Overview Chapter 2: Product Overview SRW2008 - Front Panel The LEDs and ports are located on the front panel of the Switch. LEDs Front Panel SYSTEM (Green) The system LED lights up to indicate that the Switch is powered on. LINK/ACT (Green) The LINK/ACT LED lights up to indicate a functional network link through the corresponding port (1 through 8) with an attached device. It flashes to indicate that the Switch is actively sending or receiving data over that port. Gigabit (Orange) The Gigabit LED lights up to indicate a Gigabit connection on the corresponding port (1 through 8). Ports 1-8 The Switch is equipped with 8 autosensing, Ethernet network ports, which use RJ-45 connectors. The Fast Ethernet ports support network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 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. Console The Console port is where you can connect a serial cable to a PC's serial port for configuration using your PC's HyperTerminal program. Refer to Chapter 4: Using the Console Interface for Configuration for more information. 8-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with Webview miniGBIC1/2 The mini-GBIC (gigabit interface converter) port is a connection point for a mini-GBIC expansion module, so the Switch can be uplinked via fiber to another switch. Each MiniGBIC port provides a link to a high-speed network segment or individual workstation at speeds of up to 1000Mbps. Use the Linksys MGBT1, MGBSX1, or MGBLH1 mini-GBIC modules with the Switch. The MGBSX1 and the MGBLH1 require fiber cabling with LC connectors, while the MGBT1 requires a Category 5e Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 connector. SRW2008P/SRW2008MP - Front Panel The LEDs and ports are located on the front panel of the Switch. LEDs Front Panel SYSTEM (Green) The system LED lights up to indicate that the Switch is powered on. LINK/ACT (1-8) (Green) The LINK/ACT LED lights up to indicate a functional network link through the corresponding port (1 through 8) with an attached device. It flashes to indicate that the Switch is actively sending or receiving data over that port. PoE (Orange) The PoE LED lights up to indicate a device is connected utilizing Power over Ethernet on the corresponding port (1 through 8). Ports 1-8 The Switch is equipped with 8 autosensing, Ethernet network ports, which use RJ45 connectors. The Fast Ethernet ports support network speeds of 10Mbps or 100Mbps.
