Milan Technology MIL-S8001TG - Manuals

4 Ethernet Switching Technology Ethernet Switching Technology dramatically boosted the total bandwidth of a network, eliminated congestion problems inherent with CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense multiple access with Collision Detection) protocol, and greatly reduced unnecessary transmissions. This revolutioni...

5 Management Methods The MIL-S8001TG switch series supports Console Management methods Console Management is done through the RS-232 Console Port. Managing the switch in this method requires a direct connection between a PC and the switch.

6 2. Hardware Description Front Panel The Front Panel of the MIL-S8001TG switch consists of eight 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ-45 ports, one MINI GBIC slot, one LED-Indicator for Power, three LED-Indicators (100/1000, LNK/ACT, FDX/COL) for each UTP port, and two LED-Indicators (LNK/ACT) for the Mini-GBIC s...

8 LED Indicators The LED Indicators give real-time information of systematic operation status. The following table provides descriptions of LED statuses and their meaning. Figure 2-2. LED Indicators LED Status Color Description Power On Green Power On On Green The port is operating at the speed of 1...

9 On Orange The port is operating in Full-duplex mode. Blinks Orange Collision of Packets is occurring in the port. FDX /COL Off The port is operating in Half-duplex mode or no device attached. LNK (MINI GBIC) On Green The port is successfully connecting with the device. ACT (MINI GBIC) Blinks Green...

10 Rear Panel The 3-pronged power plug and console port are located at the rear panel of the MIL-S8001TG as shown in Figure 2-3. The switch will work with AC in the range 100-240V AC, 50-60Hz. Figure 2-3. The Rear Panel of MIL-S8001TG switch Desktop Installation Set the switch on a sufficiently larg...

11 Power On Connect the power cord to the power socket on the rear panel of the switch. Connect the other end of the cord to an appropriate power outlet. The internal power supply in the switch works with AC in the voltage range of 100-240VAC and frequency 50~60Hz. Check the power indicator on the f...

12 3. Network Application This section provides you a few samples of network topology in witch the Switch is used. In general, the 8 Gigabit Copper with one MINI GBIC Smart switch is designed as a segment switch. That is, with its address table (4000 MAC address) and high performance, it is ideal fo...

13 Segment Bridge For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly processed, this switch is an ideal solution for department users to connect to the corporate backbone. In the illustration below, two Ethernet switches with PCs, print server, and local server attached, are both con...

14 4. Console Management Connecting a Terminal or PC to the Console Port Console management involves the administration of the switch via a direct connection to the RS-232 console port. This port is a female DB-9 connector. From the main menu of the console program, the user has access to manage the...

15 After the connection between the Switch and PC is finished, turn on the PC and run a terminal emulation program or Hyper Terminal and configure its communication parameters to match the following default characteristics of the console port: Baud Rate: 9600 bps Data Bits: 8 Parity: none Stop Bit: ...

31 5. Troubleshooting This section is intended to help you solve some common problems encountered while using the MIL-S8001TG switch. Incorrect connections The switch port can auto detect straight or crossover cable when you link switch with other Ethernet device. For the RJ-45 connector should use ...

32 Improper Network Topologies It is important to make sure that you have a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive cable length and too many repeaters or hubs between end nodes. In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains no data path loops. Betwee...
