Panels & LED Indicators
2.1.1 LAN Connections
There are 8 shielded RJ-45 that provide LAN connections from GSW-3208M2 Switch. These ports support Ethernet speeds
of 10/100/1000M automatically. Each of these eight LAN ports has associated LEDs, located on the front panel, which
indicate the active link state and the detected speed of the interface. A green indicates a link and a speed of 10/100M,
while orange color indicates a link and speed of 1000M.
2.1.2 Fiber Connections
Refer to the graphic drawing above. GSW-3208M2 utilizes an SFP module for fiber transmission. The fiber port has an
associated status LED to indicate the presence or absence of fiber link and will also flash when there is Ethernet activity
on the port. The SFP cage may insert any standard SFP module and be configured for 100M or 1000M operation. There is
no 'lock out' mechanism, so any third party SFP, compliant with MSA, can be used in GSW-3208M2.
2.1.3 Console Connection
The D-Sub 9 is an RS-232 console terminal port for local management. Connect one end of the provided DB-9 cable to the
device, the other end to your local PC. Pinouts for RS-232 DB-9 (Figure 3) connector are illustrated below.
2.1.4 Reset Push-Button
There is a recessed push-button switch used to reset GSW-3208M2 or to return it to factory defaults. Pressing the reset
momentarily once will "warm boot" the switch. Pressing and holding the pushbutton switch for more than 3 seconds and
then releasing will set the running configuration to the original factory default settings, including the original factory
default IP address followed by a "warm boot". If the IP address of the switch is unknown, it may be necessary to do a
factory default reset. The IP address will then be the known default.
2.1.5 Power
GSW-3208M2 provides two power options for power input. When AC power module is available, AC power is supplied to
GSW-3208M2 through a standard IEC C14 3-prong receptacle, located on the front panel. Any national power cord with
IEC C13 line plug may be used to connect AC power to the power module. With a DC48 power module, DC voltage is
connected to the terminal block. GSW-3208M2 should always be grounded through the protective earth lead of the
power cable in AC installations, or via the frame ground connection for DC installations.
