2 GN-GT5D Gigabit Ethernet Switch FCC Warning This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limitations are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into a different outlet from the one the receiver is connected to. Consult your local distributors or an experienced radio/tv technician for help. Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with emission limits. Changes or modifications to the equipment, which are not approved by the party responsible for compliance, could affect the user s authority to operate the equipment.

5 GN-GT5D Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch Chapter1 Introduction Overview The Gigabyte GN-GT5D is a powerful, high-performance, Fast Ethernet Switch, which acts as traffic controller for 5 highways to connect your networks to other outside networks. With 5 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports, the Gigabit Switch can automatically negotiate with the connected partners for the network speed and duplex mode. It is ideal for microsegmenting large networks into smaller, connected subnets for improved performance, enabling bandwidth-demanding multimedia, imaging and database applications. Moreover, the 10/100/1000Mbps auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate 10Mbps to 100Mbps and 1000Mbps network with ease. Compared to the shared 10Mbps, 100Mbps or 1000Mbps networks, the Gigabit Switch delivers a dedicated 10/100/1000Mbps connection to every attached client with no bandwidth congestion issues and the most costeffective way to invest in your network s performance in the long run. Store-and-forward switching mode guarantees low latency, plus eliminates all network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under fullduplex mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur simultaneously without causing collisions, as well as doubling the network bandwidth. The Gigabit Switch using plug-n-play without needing any software to configure, and is also fully compliant with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the abundant diagnostic LEDs on the front-panel provide the operating status of individual ports and the entire system. 5

7 GN-GT5D Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch Package Contents Thank you for purchasing this powerful, high-performance Gigabyte 5 ports 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Switch. Before we get started, please check the package to make sure all items are within and accounted for. -- Gigabyte GN-GT5D Gigabit Switch -- AC Power Adapter -- User s Guide for the Gigabyte GN-GT5D Gigabit Switch Please contact your local distributor or authorized reseller immediately for any missing or damaged components. If you require returning the damaged product, you must pack it in the original packing material or the warranty will be voided. The Rear Panel The Switch s ports are located on the Switch s rear panel. Power The power port is where you connect the power adapter. Gigabit Port There are 5 Gigabit ports, each capable of being connected to network devices, such as PC and printer servers, at 10/100/1000Mbps. 7

8 GN-GT5D Gigabit Ethernet Switch Installing the Hardware The site where you place the Switch may greatly affect its performance. When installing, take the following into your consideration: Install the switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Physical Specification for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges. Install the switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), viberation, dust and direct exposure to sunlight. Leave at least 10cm (about 4 linches) of space at the front and rear of the hub for ventilation. Install the switch on the sturdy, level surface that can support its weight, or in standard-size equipment rack. Connecting Network Cable The switch supports 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet. Each port on the switch supports Auto-MDI/MDI-X. Auto-MDI/MDI-X is a feature that eliminates the need for worring about using either a standard or crossover cable - you can use either one - and allows any port to be an uplink port. AC Power The switch can be used with AC power supply 5V DC 3A. Please connect the power adapter into the power port of the switch and plug the other end of the power into the electrical outlet.
