1 Chapter 1: Introduction Overview The MR2228-S2C switch is a stack able Fast Ethernet switch with 24 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports and two 1000BASE-T ports that operate in combination with two Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots. The switch also provides two 1 Gbps built-i n stacking ports for connecting up to eight units in one stack.[...]

2 Network Management Options With a comprehensive arrangment of LEDs, the MR2228-S2C provides “at a glance” monitoring of network and port status. The switch can be managed over the network with a web browser or Telnet app lication, or via a direct connection to the console port. The switch includes a built-in network management agent that allo[...]

3 Stacking Ports The unit provides two stacking ports t hat provide a 1 Gbps stack backplane connection. Up to eight switches can be connected together using Category 5 Ethernet cables (purchased separately). The Master button enables one switch in the stack to be selected as the master. This is the unit through which you manage the entire stack. T[...]

8 Chapter 2: Network Planning Introduction to Switching A network switch allows simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via non-crossbar switching. This means that it can partition a network more efficiently than bridges or routers. The switch has, therefore, b een recognized as one of the most important building blocks for today’s networki[...]

11 Figure 2-3. Remote Connect ions with Fiber Cable Making VLAN Connections This switch supports VLANs which can be used to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can e liminate broadcast storms in large networks. This provides a more secure and cleaner netw[...]

Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both device[...]

13 Chapter 3: Installing the Switch Selecting a Site Switch units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the guide lines below when choosing a location. • The site should: • be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet. • be able to maintain its temperature w[...]

15 Rack Mounting Before rack mounting the switch, pay particu lar attention to the following factors: • Temperature: Since the te mperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check t hat the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating temperature range. (See page C-1.) • Mechanical Loading[...]
