16-Port Fast Ethernet Switch
User’s Guide
M73-APO07-310
INTRODUCTION
The 16-Port Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps N-Way Switch provides you a flexible, reliable, and
affordable solution of the Ethernet network. It comes with sixteen 10BASE-T /100BASE-TX
ports. The 16-Port Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps N-Way Switch is able to operate in both half
and full-duplex modes. Each port delivers up to 200Mbps throughput in full duplex mode.
The 16-Port Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps N-Way Switch also processes a N-Way auto-
negotiation function, which automatically adjusts the device for optimum operation; “Store-
and-Forward” architecture filters to eliminate error packets and improve efficiency. Plus, the
auto-MDI/MDIX technology provides the convenience of using a straight through or a
crossover Ethernet cable and you will be connected with any other devices. Moreover, the
built-in Universal Power Supply allows you to install the switch easily without the external
power adapter.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
The switch is considered as a “plug and play” network device and requires no special setup
procedures. Connect the power cord and cables correctly and you are ready to go.
Switch installation
1.
Put the switch on the appropriate location. When you install the switch, there are two
things needed to be considered:
ꢁLocation: Your switch should be located in a place that is central to your
home/office space and allows all computers and networked devices connected to
your switch.
ꢁPower: Remember to locate your switch near electrical outlet.
2.
3.
Power on the switch by connecting the power cord.
Verify if the power (POWER) LED is on. If the POWER LED does not light up,
check the power cord and power outlet to verify its connection. If it still remains unlit,
please contact your dealer for support.
Ethernet Port Connection
Connect user machines, servers, another switch, hub, or any other devices to the Ethernet
ports on this switch with either straight through or crossover Ethernet cables.
