Overview 

This document provides instructions for installation and initial configuration of the Canoga 
Perkins model HS8000 Hardened 6-port 10/100 Ethernet Switch.  The HS8000 is suitable for use 
in environments with inhospitable high / low temperatures providing two built-in 100Mbps full 
duplex switched fiber ports. These fiber ports are coupled with six switched 10/100Mbps copper 
(RJ45) ports for easy connectivity to local nodes and devices.  
 
The HS8000 is available with AC or DC power, which can be easily deployed in an existing and 
mixed vendor Ethernet network.  The software supports managed edge-switch functions including 
Menu-driven User Interface for ease of use, SNMP, QoS, Telnet, Password Security, Port 
Settings Control, Spanning Tree Protocol, Port-based VLAN, BootP / DHCP etc. The two built-in 
fiber ports are designed with full-duplex 100Mbps switched capability, and the six copper (RJ-45) 
ports come with full / half-duplex-10/100 auto-negotiating ability.
