Introduction
These CheetahSwitches are ideal for moving workgroups
from the conventional 10Mbps shared Ethernet collision
domain to multiple dedicated Ethernet segments. These
switches deliver dedicated 10/100 Mbps links to each
attached LAN segment (independent collision domain) or
attached PCs all with conventional cabling and adapters.
They completely eliminate the bottlenecks of shared
10Mbps Ethernet networks by providing a wide bandwidth of up to 3.2 Gbps. This
makes them ideal for increasing the throughput of interconnected Ethernet hubs
or server farms. On top of all that, they use auto-negotiation to select the optimal
transmission speed and communication mode for each connection. They use
store-and-forward switching to maintain maximum data integrity, even under
heavy loading.
Installing the Switch
Before installing the switch, verify that you have all the items listed under
Package Contents. If any of the items are missing or damaged, contact your
local Accton distributor. Also be sure you have all the necessary tools and
cabling before installing the switch. Note that this switch can be installed on any
suitably large flat surface or in a standard EIA 19-inch rack.

Description of Hardware
These switches contain 8/16 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX dual-speed ports. They
use auto-negotiation to set the transmission speed (10/100 Mbps) and mode
(half/full duplex). If the attached device does not support auto-negotiation, the
speed will still be correctly set by the switch using auto-sensing. However, full
duplex can only be supported if the attached device also uses auto-negotiation.
