D-Link DGS-1016TL/DGS-1024TL Gigabit Ethernet Switch Safety Instructions (continued) Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first. Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
D-Link DGS-1016TL/DGS-1024TL Gigabit Ethernet Switch SECTION 1 Introduction Gigabit Ethernet Technology Switching Technology Switch Description Features Front Panel Components LED Indicators Rear Panel Description Side Panel Description 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, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over 100- Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet.
The front panel of the Switch consists of LED indicators and either 16 or 24 (10/100/1000 Mbps) Gigabit Ethernet ports. Figure 1-1A. Front Panel View of the DGS-1016TL Figure 1-2B. Front Panel View of the DGS-1024TL Comprehensive LED indicators display the status of the Switch and the network.
D-Link DGS-1016TL/DGS-1024TL Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 1-3. LED Indicators This indicator will light green immediately after the Switch is powered on to indicate Power the ready state of the device. This indicator lights green when the port is connected to a Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Ethernet station.
D-Link DGS-1016TL/DGS-1024TL Gigabit Ethernet Switch Side Panel Description The sides of the system provide heat vents that help to dissipate heat. Do not block these openings, and leave at least 6 inches of space at the rear and sides of the Switch for proper ventilation. Be reminded that without proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system components might overheat, which could lead to system failure.
