2. Installation

2-1. Starting the GSS16T2SFP Gigabit Web Smart Switch

This section provides a quick start guide for:

- Hardware and Cable Installation

- Management Station Installation

- Software booting and configuration

2-1-1. Hardware and Cable Installation

Please Note:

⇒ Wear a grounding strap device to avoid damaging the switch with electrostatic

discharge.

⇒ Be sure that the power switch is in the ‘OFF’ position, before you insert the power

cord.

• Installing any optional SFP Fiber Transceivers to the GSS16T2SFP Gigabit

Web Smart Switch.

• Connecting the SFP Module to the Chassis:

The optional SFP modules are hot swappable, so you can plug or unplug them

while the power is applied to the switch.

1. Verify that the SFP module is of the correct type to suit the switch

2. Slide the module along the slot and ensure that the module is properly

seated against the slot socket/connector.

3. Install the media cable for network connection

4. Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each module to be installed into

the switch

. 2-1 Installation of O

tional SFP Fiber Transceive

• Copper Ports Cable Installation

⇒ The switch copper ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover. This enables use of

either straight-through or crossover Cat 5E cables.

⇒ Use Cat. 5 grade RJ-45 copper cables to connect to the copper RJ-45 ports.

⇒ Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each RJ-45 port to be connected.

• Power On

The switch supports 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply. The power supply

will automatically convert the local AC power source to DC power. When initial

power is applied, all the LED indicators will light up for a brief period while the

system performs its startup tests. Once the initial tests (‘POST test’) have

completed all except the power LED should return to an off state.

• Firmware Loading

After power on, the boot-loader will load the switch firmware into the main

operational memory. This process will take about 30 seconds. Once completed, the

switch will flash all the LED’s once switch to a ready state.

2-1-2. Cabling Requirements

To help ensure a successful installation and keep network performance at its

optimum level, please take care in using correct Cat5E or greater cabling. Please

ensure that Stranded core runs for no more than 10 meters, and that solid core runs

for a maximum of 100meters. Poor cabling is the most common cause for network

dropouts, or poor performance.

2-1-2-1. Cabling Requirements for TP Ports

⇒ For Fast Ethernet copper network connections

 The Cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100 meters.

⇒ Gigabit Ethernet copper network connection

 The Cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100 meters.

Cat. 5e is recommended.

2-1-2-2. Cabling Requirements for 1000SX/LX SFP Module

There are two categories of fiber, multi mode (MM) and single mode (SM). The

later is categorized into several classes by the distance it supports. They are SX, LX,

LHX, XD, and ZX. In terms of physical connectors for SFP modules, there currently

is only LC and WDM SC types

 Gigabit Fiber with multi-mode LC SFP module

 Gigabit Fiber with single-mode LC SFP module

 Gigabit Fiber with WDM SC 1310nm SFP module

 Gigabit Fiber with WDM SC 1550nm SFP module

The following table lists the types of fiber that are supported. Others not listed

here may be support upon request.

After you have successfully logged into the switch the system status

information is displayed as in Fig. 4-2. This page informs you about the basic

information of the system, including “Switch Status”, “TP Port Status”, “Fiber Port

Status”, “Aggregation”, “VLAN”, “Mirror”, “Trap Event”, and “Maximum Packet

Length”. From this information, you can ascertain the software version used, MAC

address, port status and so on. For more details, please refer to Section 4-4-1.
