Product Description
The LevelOne FSW-1650 is a top - notch network switch tailored for small businesses. It offers a high - bandwidth connection between file servers, workgroups, departments, and offices. With a compact design, it can be placed on desktops or mounted in a 19 - inch server rack using the included accessory kit. Key features include 16 x 10/100BASE - TX ports with 10/100Mbps speed, full/half - duplex, auto - negotiation, and auto - MDI/MDIX. It supports 8K MAC address auto - learning and auto - aging, and the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control ensures reliable data transmission by preventing lost packets. Advanced energy - efficient technology (IEEE 802.3az) helps reduce the carbon footprint. Technical specs cover standards like IEEE802.3, IEEE802.3u, and IEEE802.3az. It has 2MB buffer memory, 16 full - shielded 10/100Mbps ports, and indicators for power, LINK/ACT, and 100M. The power input is 100 - 240V/AC with a consumption of 6.6W. It has a 3.2Gbps backplane, an 8K MAC address table, and operates at 32 to 104F (0 to 40C) with 10 to 90% humidity (non - condensing). The packet forwarding rate is 14880pps, and it supports 2KB jumbo frames. It measures 17.32 x 8.19 x 1.73' (440 x 208 x 44mm) and meets EMI/EMS: CE/FCC. The package includes one FSW - 1650, one power cord, and one 19' rack mount kit.
Using the LevelOne FSW - 1650 is quite simple. First, find a suitable location for it. You can either put it on a desktop or use the included rack - mount kit to install it in a 19 - inch server rack. Then, connect the power cord to a 100 - 240V/AC power source. After that, connect your devices to the 16 ports on the switch. Remember that the switch can auto - negotiate the speed and duplex mode, so you don't have to worry about those settings too much. When it comes to maintenance, keep the switch in a cool and dry place. The operating temperature range is 32 to 104F (0 to 40C), and humidity should be between 10 to 90% (non - condensing). Regularly check the power, LINK/ACT, and 100M indicators to make sure everything is working properly. If you notice any lost packets, the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control feature is there to help protect your data transmission. Also, thanks to the advanced energy - efficient technology, you don't have to worry too much about high power consumption. Just follow these steps, and you'll have a reliable network switch for your small business.
