4 A. UNPACKING INFO RMATION Thank you for purchasing LevelOne FSW - 1611TX 16Port 10/100Mbps 13 ” Fast Ethernet Switch . Before continuing, please check the contents of the product package.
5 B. PRODUCT INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching technology. Fast Ethernet Technology The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high performance networks.
6 segments. The switch, without interfering with any other segments, automatically forwards traffic t hat needs to go from one segment to another. By doing this the total network capacity is multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and adapter cards.
7 The Swit ches are a perfect choice for site planning to upgrade to Fast Ethernet in the future. Ethernet workgroups can connect to the Switches now, and change adapters and hubs anytime later without needing to change the Switches or reconfigure the network.
8 The Front Panel LevelOne 16Port 10/100Mbps 13 ” Fast Ethernet Switch Port Speeds 100/10Mbps TP Ports Each 100/10Mbps TP port provides an Auto - Negotiation function that senses for the attached device's maximum operating speed and automatically sets the Switch to operate at that speed.
9 cabling. Status LEDs This LevelOne 16Port 10/100Mbps 13” Fast Ethernet Switch comes with a complete range of LEDs. The table below lists each LED’s name, color and a brief description of its function.
10 Note: To reset the s witch, Remove the power cord and re - attach it . a) The switch must be reset when the MAC Address table needs to be rebuilt. b) The switch must be reset when the fiber port Full/Half – Duplex modes are changed.
11 C. INSTALLATION This Le velOne 16Port 10/100Mbps 13” Fast Ethernet Switch is "Plug & Play." They do NOT require software configuration. Users can immediately use any of the features of this product simply by attaching the cables and turning on the power.

13 D. HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS Prior to Installation Before installing this LevelOne FSW - 1611TX 16Port 10/100Mbps 13” Fast Ethernet Switch and connecting it to network devices, it is important to plan t he network's layout.
14 they can receive data. • In Full - Duplex mode data can be transmitted and received at the same time. However: a) Full - Duplex transmission is only possible between two devices with a dedicated link ( e.g., Switch - Switch, Switch - PC) b) Both devices must have Full - Duplex capability c) Both devices must be set to Full - Duplex (e.
15 10Mbps, with Auto - Negotiation 20Mbps Bandwidth (10BASE - T, Full - Duplex) F Helpful Warning: If the attached device is set to a fixed mode (ex: Forced Full - Duplex) it will not operate as an Auto - Negotiation device. MAC Address Table Every Ethernet data packet includes both source and destination addresses.
16 E. Troubleshooting I. Link LED does not lit after cable is connected to the port. Ø Verify that the other end of the cable is connected to a device that is powered on and on - line. Ø For TP cable co nnection to another Switch or Hub, verify that only one end of the cable is connected to a “Crossover” port.
17 ALWAYS CHECK THAT: Ø CABLE AND LINK DISTANCES ARE WITHIN THE NETWORK'S SPECIFICATIONS Ø OVERALL NETWORK DIAMETERS ARE WITHIN THE NETWORK'S SPECIFICATIONS.
