Chapter 3 Hardware Overview Table 2 Front Panel (continued) PORT DESCRIPTION 100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Gigabit Port Connect this Gigabit Ethernet port to high-bandwidth backbone network Ethernet switches. Mini-GBIC Use mini-GBIC transceivers in these slots for fiber-optic connections to backbone Slot Ethernet switches. ES-2108PWR Power over Ethernet The 8 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet ports are compliant with the IEEE 802.3af power over Ethernet standard. 3.1.1 Console Port For local management, you can use a computer with terminal emulation software configured to the following parameters: • VT100 terminal emulation • 9600 bps • No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit • No flow control Connect the male 9-pin end of the console cable to the console port of the Switch. Connect the female end to a serial port (COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer. 3.1.2 Ethernet Ports The Switch has Eight 10/100Mbps auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In 10/ 100Mbps Fast Ethernet, the speed can be 10Mbps or 100Mbps and the duplex mode can be half duplex or full duplex. The ES-2108-G and ES-2108PWR also come with a Gigabit/mini-GBIC slot each. The miniGBIC slot has priority over the Gigabit port. This means that if the mini-GBIC slot and the corresponding Gigabit port are connected at the same time, the Gigabit port will be disabled. The speed of the Gigabit Ethernet/mini-GBIC slot can be 100Mbps or 1000Mbps and the duplex mode can be half duplex (at 100 Mbps) or full duplex. An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100Mpbs) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device. An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable. 3.1.2.1 Default Ethernet Settings The factory default negotiation settings for the Ethernet ports on the Switch are: • Speed: Auto • Duplex: Auto • Flow control: off ES-2108 Series User's Guide 43
