mportant Instructions
For LMS and LFX Installation
▼
Design connections to avoid loops - these unmanaged switches
do not support Spanning Tree Algorithm
▼
If using dedicated switch ports for a connection to a single
server, single user or another switch, use full duplex if
possible for much better performance
▼
If using 10BASE2, consider using a repeater connected to a
LMS/LFX 10BASE-T port instead of a transceiver, or contact
Lantronix for more information
▼
Avoid bottlenecks in network design by attaching servers to the
same switch as their most common clients
▼
Try to configure each side of the extender/bridge so that
nodes that will communicate frequently are on the same port
▼
To extend 100BASE-FX fiber to maximum length, use 2
LFX2-MAs (with 100BASE-FX fiber transceivers) connected by a
Category 5 cable; this allows both fiber links to be extended
to the 412 meter limit (each LFX2-MA extender/switch
regenerates the signal)
▼
Because it is a store-and-forward device, the LFX2 filters out
bad packets from attached network segments, so it can be
used as a screen between a problem segment and the
network backbone
