Introduction  
Gigabit Ethernet Technology  
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the same packet  
structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full duplex, flow control, and  
management objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over  
100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet.  
Since it is compatible with all 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps Ethernet environments,  
Gigabit Ethernet provides a straightforward upgrade without wasting a company’s  
existing investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel.  
The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet are  
essential to coping with the network bottlenecks that frequently develop as  
computers and their busses get faster and user applications generate more traffic.  
Upgrading key components, such as your backbone and servers to Gigabit  
Ethernet can greatly improve network response times, as well as significantly  
speed up the traffic between your subnets.  
Gigabit Ethernet supports video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar  
data-intensive applications. Likewise, since data transfers occur 10 times faster  
than Fast Ethernet, servers outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to  
perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time.  
Switching Technology  
Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet technology is in the field  
of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address  
level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or fast  
Ethernet LAN segments.  
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network capacity available  
1
 
to users on a local area network. A switch increases capacity and decreases  
network loading by making it possible for a local area network to be divided into  
different segments which do not compete with each other for network transmission  
capacity, giving a decreased load on each.  
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual segments.  
The switch automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one segment to  
another, without interfering with any other segments. This allows the total network  
capacity to be multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and  
adapter cards.  
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation  
of network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers have  
also been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a router and the  
setup and maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today’s  
switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion  
problems.  
Features  
The MIL-S8000T Gigabit Ethernet Switch was designed for easy installation and  
high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number  
of users increase continuously.

Hardware Description  
Front Panel  
The front panel of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch consists of LED Indicators, which  
display the conditions of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch and the status of the network.  
Figure 2-1. Front Panel view of the MIL-S8000T Gigabit Ethernet Switch  
Rear Panel  
The rear panel of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch consists of eight Gigabit Ethernet  
ports with 10/100/1000Mbps Auto-Negotiation and the DC power connecter.  
Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter.

LED Indicators  
The LED indicators of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch provide a real-time indication of  
system operating statuses. There are three LED-indicators for each Gigabit  
Ethernet port and one Power LED for the Unit.  
POWER  
The Power LED indicator is solid green when the Gigabit Ethernet Switch is  
receiving power.  
Link/Act  
The Link/Act LED indicators are solid when there is a secure connection (or link)  
to the desired port. A blinking LED indicator signifies reception or transmission (i.e.  
Activity—Act) of data occurring on a port.  
1000Mbps  
The 1000Mbps LED indicators are solid when there is a secure connection (or link)  
to a 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet device at the desired port.  
100Mbps  
The 100Mbps LED indicators are solid when there is a secure connection (or link)  
to a 100Mbps Fast Ethernet device at the desired port.  
When the connection (or link) is 10Mbps, both the 1000Mbps and  
100Mbps LED indicators are off.

Hardware Installation  
Desktop Installation  
Install the MIL-S8000T Gigabit Ethernet Switch in a location that conforms to the  
acceptable operation temperature and humidity ranges (see Technical  
Specifications). It is recommended that the site be free from strong  
electromagnetic source, vibration, dust, and direct sunlight.  
A minimum of 10cm of space on the left and right hand side of the Switch is  
required for ventilation purposes.  
Power On  
Connect the power adapter to the power socket on the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.  
Connect the other end of the power pack into an appropriate electrical outlet.  
Note: Use of a power adapter other than the one supplied with the Gigabit  
Ethernet Switch may result in damage to the product.
