14 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCING THE SUPERSTACK 3 SWITCH 4200 SERIES
WARNING: RJ-45 Ports. These are shielded RJ-45 data sockets. They cannot
be used as standard traditional telephone sockets, or to connect the unit to a
traditional PBX or public telephone network. Only connect RJ-45 data
connectors, network telephony systems, or network telephones to these
sockets.
Either shielded or unshielded data cables with shielded or unshielded
jacks can be connected to these data sockets.
10BASE-T/
100BASE-TX Ports
The Switch has 24 or 48 auto-negotiating 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports
configured as Auto MDIX (cross-over). While auto-negotiation is enabled,
these ports can automatically detect whether they need to operate in
MDI or MDIX mode. Alternatively, you can manually set these ports to
10BASE-T half duplex, 10BASE-T full duplex, 100BASE-TX half duplex or
100BASE-TX full duplex. The maximum segment length is 100
m (328 ft)
over Category 5 twisted pair cable.
10/100/1000BASE-T
Ports
The Switch has two auto-negotiating 10/100/1000BASE-T ports
configured as Auto MDIX (cross-over). While auto-negotiation is enabled,
these ports can automatically detect whether they need to operate in
MDI or MDIX mode. These ports provide 10/100/1000
Mbps full duplex
connections to other Gigabit Ethernet devices. Full duplex allows packets
to be transmitted and received simultaneously which, in effect, doubles
the potential throughput of a link. These ports require either
straight-through or cross-over Category
5 cables with RJ-45 connectors at
both ends. The maximum UTP cable length is 100 m (328
ft) over
Category 5 cable.
The 10/100/1000BASE-T ports will auto-negotiate to the appropriate
speed.
GBIC Ports This section applies to the SuperStack 3 Switch 4228G only.
The two GBIC ports support Category 5 twisted pair cable and fiber
Gigabit Ethernet short-wave (SX), long-wave (LX) and long-haul (LH70)
GBIC transceivers in any combination. This offers you the flexibility of
using GBIC transceivers to provide connectivity between the Switch and
remote 1000
Mbps workgroups or to create a high capacity aggregated
link backbone connection.
DUA1730-0AAA04.book Page 14 Thursday, November 17, 2005 2:59 PM
About the Switch 4200 Series 15
Fiber GBIC's.
The default state for these ports is auto-negotiation enabled, where
speed, duplex and flow control modes are negotiated. Because the speed
and duplex modes are fixed by the media type, only the flow control is
negotiated with the link partner. Alternatively, auto-negotiation can be
disabled and the flow control setting can be manually configured.
1000BASE-T GBIC's
These ports will auto-negotiate to 1000BASE-T, full duplex only. Although
it is not possible to disable auto-negotiation it is possible to change the
advertised capabilities for flow control support, effectively enabling or
disabling flow control.
LEDs Tab le 4 lists LEDs visible on the front of the Switch, and how to read their
status according to color. For information on using the LEDs for problem
solving, see
“Solving Problems Indicated by LEDs” on page 54.
It is not possible to determine the duplex mode from the LEDs. For more
detailed information, refer to the “SuperStack
3 Switch Management
Interface Reference Guide” on the CD-ROM that is supplied with the
Switch.
