Overview

Datacom Systems' 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Gigabit SPAN Switch increases

network visibility and leverages your analyzers, probes and security equipment by

allowing you to simultaneously monitor up to four separate SPAN ports. Greater vis-

ibility accelerates problem resolution, reduces downtime, increases productivity and

improves the bottom line.

With our built-in switch control server and MANAgents™software, you can

even choose to manage your switch independent from your network tool’s applica-

tion program interface.

Features and Benefits

• Leverages up to four (4) network appliances across up to sixteen (16) 10/100/1000 baseT SPAN/mirror

ports with a single switch.

• Daisy-chain up to four (4) units to give your network tools access to as many as sixty-four (64)

10/100/1000 baseT SPAN/mirror ports.

• Manage the switch through your monitoring tool’s API or use Datacom Systems MANAgents™software

using a standard network cable.

• Use MANAgents™software to save your network configuration and segment names.

• Central management reduces the need to travel with portable equipment.

• Dual redundant power supplies ensure monitoring uptime.

• Conveniently rack-mountable in standard 19 inch rack (unit is 1U high.)

Front Panel Description — Figure 2 illustrates the Copper

Gigabit SPAN switch front panel. This is the location for all network cable connec-

tions and status LEDs.

Figure 2 - 4X16SP-1000BT Front Panel

An explanation of each panel legend follows:

POWER 1 &2 — Two power source circuit connections are provided. Use of a second different external

power source circuit than the first is strongly recommended to assure uninterrupted oper-

ation. Furthermore, connecting the second power source circuit to a different external

power source circuit than the first helps to eliminate power as a single point of failure. The

POWER 1 and 2LEDs illuminate indicating power 1 and 2, respectively, are on. Either LED

not illuminated indicates a lack of power and immediate investigation is required to insure

redundant power integrity.

GRAPHIC DISPLAY — This scrolling graphic displays 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Giagbit Switch power-on and

operating status information.

MANAGEMENT PORT — This port is used for remote 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Giagbit Switch control with an

RJ45 connector connection to the network. These connectors have integrated LEDs

that display status of each port. See Table 1 for LED display.

CONTROL — This USB-style connector port is cabled to the 9-pin COM port connector of a host computer

for local 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Gigabit Switch control in a stand alone 4X16SP-1000BT

switch configuration or as the first 4X16SP-1000BT switch in a daisy-chain configuration. A

daisy-chained 4X16SP-1000BT switch CONTROL port is cabled to the LINK port of the preced-

ing sequence switch in the daisy-chain.

LINK — This USB-style connector port is cabled to the CONTROL port of the next in sequence 4X16SP-

1000BT switch when connected in a daisy-chain configuration.

NETWORK PORTS 1 to 16 — These ports are RJ45 connectors used for making connection to SPAN network

device connectors or In-Line taps.

DAISY PORTS A to D — These ports are RJ45 connectors cabled to the next in sequence 4X16SP-1000BT

switch COMMON A,COMMON B,COMMON C or COMMON D port, respectively,

when connected in a daisy-chain configuration. These connectors have integrated

LEDs that display status of each port. See Table 1 for LED display.

COMMON PORTS A to D — These ports are RJ45 connectors cabled to the NIC MONITOR port connector of

network tools. The 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Giagbit Switch connects the select-

ed network port (1 to 16) to the COMMON A,COMMON B,COMMON C or COM-

MON D port, but the COMMON A,COMMON B,COMMON C and COMMON D port

can not be connected to the same network port at the same time. These con-

nectors have integrated LEDs that display status of each port. See Table 1 for

Rear Panel Description — Figure 3 illustrates the Copper

Gigabit SPAN switch rear panel. This is the location for power source inlet connec-

tions, serial number (SN) and media access control (MAC) address information.

Figure 3 - 4X16SP-1000BT Rear Panel

An explanation of each follows:

Power Connectors — 100-240 VAC 50-60 Hz. Two inlet power source circuit IEC 320 connections are pro-

vided. Use of a second different external power source circuit than the first is strongly

recommended to assure uninterrupted operation. Furthermore, connecting the second

power source circuit to a different external power source circuit than the first helps to

eliminate power as a single point of failure. The POWER 1 and 2LEDs on the front

panel illuminate indicating power 1 and 2, respectively, are on. Either LED not illumi-

nated indicates a lack of power and immediate investigation is required to insure redun-

dant power integrity.

SN — Serial Number (SN). A number that identifies Datacom Systems electronic equipment such as the

4X16SP-1000BT Copper Giagbit Switch.

MAC — Media Access Control (MAC) address, a hardware address that uniquely identifies each node (this

4X16SP-1000BT Copper Giagbit Switch) of a network.

Datacom Systems Inc

4X16SP-1000BT Copper Gigabit SPAN Switch • USERguide

To connect the 4X16SP-1000BT into the network, refer to FIGURE 4 and follow these steps:

Step 1. Two 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source inlet connections are provided.

Use of the second power source is strongly recommended to assure uninter-

rupted monitoring. Connect both AC power cables into the IEC 320 inlet

connectors, respectively, of the 4X16SP-1000BT Copper Gigabit SPAN

Switch. Plug the power cables into the external power source, furthermore,

connecting the second power cable to a different external power source cir-

cuit than the first power cable eliminates power as a single point of failure.

The front panel POWER 1 and 2LEDs illuminate indicating power 1 and 2,

respectively, are on. Either LED not illuminated indicates a defective power

source and immediate investigation is required to insure redundant power

integrity.

IMPORTANT: The maximum length of 100 meters must not be exceeded between end-points.
