About This Manual  
Preface  
This manual describes how to install and use the 16 Ports Web-based Smart Ethernet Switch. The TX ports of the  
switch introduced here auto-negotiates the presence of 10/100Mbps and full/half-duplex mode and auto-MDIX. In  
addition, it allows an optional 100BaseFX multi-mode or single-mode fiber module, enabling long distance  
connection.  
To get the most out of this manual, you should have an understanding of networking concepts such as bridging,  
IEEE 802.3 10BaseT Ethernet, IEEE 802.3u 100BaseTX/FX Fast Ethernet, and local area networks (LANs).  
For more information about these topics, please refer to the Appendices.  
In this manual, you will find:

Installation  
Selecting a Site for the Equipment  
As with any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures,  
humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following requirements:  
-
-
-
The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 104 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 50 degrees Celsius).  
The relative humidity should be less than 90 percent, non-condensing.  
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC) standards for IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M)  
field strength.  
-
-
Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes on each side of the switch or  
on the rear of the equipment.  
The power outlet should be within 6 feet ( 1.8 meters ) of the switch.

L
It may cause electric shock or any possible damage to the switch if the power is not switched off.  
Step 2: Remove the module from the static-free container.  
Step 3: Unscrew the cover plate of the expansion slot.  
(The slot for single-port module is located at the right side of the switch.)  
Step 4: Remove the plate.  
(Keep it for future use if you decide to remove this module later.)  
Step 5: Carefully slide the module into the slot, following the internal plastic guide rails.  
Step 6: Once it is fully slid in, snap in the module to make a proper connection.  
Step 7: Fasten the module screws.  
Step 8: Finally, turn on the power.

Connecting to Your Network  
Cabling  
Step 1: First, ensure the power of the switch (and end devices) is turned off.  
LIt may cause an electric shock or any possible harm to you if the power is not switched off.  
Step 2: Prepare cable with corresponding connectors for each type of port in use.  
(Consult the table below for cabling requirements based on connectors and speed considerations. )  
Step 3: Connect one end of the cable to the switch and the other end to a desired device.  
Step 4: Once the connections between two end devices are made successfully, turn on the power and the switch is operational.

Network Segmentation  
The maximum segment distance between a node and a directly connected switch port on a 100BaseFX network is  
75km using 10/125 (or 9/125)µm single-mode fiber optic cable. It is capable of a maximum span of 2km when  
62.5/125 (or 50/125)µm multi-mode fiber optic cable is used.

Switch Configuration  
Setting up Console Port Connection (Web-Based Browser Interface)  
The Ethernet Switch provides a browser interface that lets you configure and manage the  
Ethernet Switch from a Web browser (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape  
Navigator) remotely.  
By connecting to the Ethernet Switch’s console port, you can access the Ethernet Switch’s web  
interface applications directly in your web browser by entering the default IP address of the  
Ethernet Switch (192.168.1.10). You can then use your web browser to list and manage the  
Ethernet Switch configuration parameters from one central location.  
Logging on to The Ethernet Switch  
Switch IP Address  
In your web browser, specify the default IP address of the Ethernet Switch (192.168.1.10 ).  
Example: ( 1616W: 192.168.1.8 )  
User Name  
Enter the factory default user name: admin.  
Password  
Enter the factory default password (no password, press Enter directly).  
Otherwise, enter a user-defined password if you followed the instructions later and changed the  
factory default password.
