Connecting The DES-1005F/DES-
1008F To Your Network
DC Power Jack: Power is supplied through an external AC power adapter. Since
the switch does not include a power switch, plugging its power adapter into a power
outlet will immediately power it on.
Auto-MDI-X Function ports: Use these jacks (port-1 ~ port-4) for DES-1005F,
(port1 ~ port-7) for DES-1008F to connect stations to the hub. An Auto-MDI-X
function will automatically detect if a crossover is required and make the swap of
TX pair and Rx pair internally. With this function, straight-through cable can be used
for any connection. MDI to MDI-X connection rule is not necessary anymore. In the
switches, all TX ports are equipped with this function. You can use just straight-
throughtype of cables for all your connections.
100BASE-FX Fiber Port: The Fiber port supports 100BASE-FX 62.5/125µm
multimode fiber. The TX port have to link to others end RX port, and the RX port
have to link to others end TX port.
Duplex Mode Switch: The switch is to select the operation mode either to run in
full or half duplex mode for 100BASE-FX. When turning the switch to FDX, the fiber
port will run at full duplex or turn to HDX, the fiber will run at half duplex.
