LAN switch module
The LAN switch module SM-LAN8 can be used to set up a compact data network
capable of connecting up to 8 users. The module has the following features:
•
10/100 Mbit/s
•
Half-duplex/ Full-duplex
1)
•
Auto negotiation
•
Auto MDI/MDIX (automatic detection allows the use of straight or crossover LAN
cables)
•
PoE (Power over Ethernet) is not supported

Design of the LAN switch module
The LAN switch module uses two neighbouring slots WA0...WA4 and routes the
Ethernet interfaces to the front panel. As the WA1...WA4 slots are also used for the
wiring adapters, the corresponding slots can no longer be used for interface cards
(IC1...IC4).
Exception:
The only exception are AD2 terminal cards. In this case the LAN switch module as-
sumes the function of two wiring adapters and routes the AD2 interfaces together
with the Ethernet interfaces to the same RJ45 sockets on the front panel. The same
thing is also possible with the AD2 interfaces of the mainboard if the slots WA0 and
WA1 are used for the LAN switch module. This means that universal building cables
can be used simultaneously for data and voice transmission. The signals are sepa-
rated again at the cable extremity and routed to separate connection sockets
