Introduction
Thank you for choosing the 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView and Power over Ethernet.. This Switch will allow you to network better than ever.. The 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView delivers non-blocking, wire speed switching for your 10 and 100 megabit network clients, plus multiple options for connecting to your network backbone.. Twenty Four 10/100 ports wire up your workstations, while the four integrated 10/100/1000 ports connect to other switches and the backbone at Gigabit speeds.. The miniGBIC ports allow future expansion through alternate transmission media like optical fiber..
All of the 10/100 ports on the Switch support pre‑standard and IEEE 802..3af standard (802..3af) Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities.. Each port can detect connected pre‑standard and 802..3af-compliant network devices, such as IP phones or wireless access points, and automatically supply the required DC power..
The Switch can provide DC power to a wide range of connected devices, eliminating the need for an additional power source and cutting down on the amount of cables attached to each device.. Once configured to supply power, an automatic detection process is initialized by the Switch that is authenticated by a PoE signature from the connected device.. Detection and authentication prevent damage to non-PoE devices..
TheSwitchfeaturesWebViewmonitoringandconfiguration via your web browser, making it easy to manage the 256 VLANs and up to 8 trunking groups.. Or if you prefer, you can use the integrated console port to configure the Switch.. The non-blocking, wire-speed switching forwards packets as fast as your network can deliver them..
All ports have automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection.. Each port independently and automatically negotiates the best speed and whether to run in half- or full-duplex mode.. Head-of-line blocking prevention keeps your high‑speed clients from bogging down in lower-speed traffic and fast store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on into the network..
Use the instructions in this User Guide to help you connect the Switch, set it up, and configure it to bridge your different networks.. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the 24-Port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView and Power over Ethernet..
