Signamax 065-7530/065-7540 Full-Duplex Switches
Switch Configuration
33
Port-based Trunking (24-Port)
The FO-065-7540 switch provides you the capability of
trunking either 2 or 4 ports, totaling either a 400 Mbps or
an 800 Mbps (Full-Duplex) bandwidth connection.
Trunking Rules
There are some rules for setting Trunking:
a. When configuring Trunking, the VLAN function will be
automatically disabled for the entire switch.
b. FO-065-7540 provides two selections of trunking: two-
port trunking (Port #s 1 & 2) and four port -trunking
(Port #s 1, 2, 3 & 4), providing a high bandwidth
connection from 400 Mbps to 800 Mbps.
c. Trunking port setting is only available for Port #s 1, 2,
3 & 4.
d. Trunking port must connect to any ports on another
device (FO-065-7520 / 065-7530 / 065-7540) with the
trunking setting disabled (Port 1, 2, 3, 4 for FO-065-
7530/065-7540, Port A1, A2, A3, A4 for FO-065-7520)
or any ports except Port 1, 2, 3 & 4 (or A1, A2, A3 &
A4 for FO-065-7520). That means when using
Trunking, the ports connected in the two switches
can’t be set as a trunking port at the same time; only
one switch’s ports need to be defined as trunking
ports, and the other switch’s ports have trunking
disabled.
e.
Trunking port can connect to Signamax 10BaseT
Hubs, 100BaseTX Hubs, 10/100 Dual speed Hubs,
Desktop Switches, or any device without a trunking
function.
