Chapter 1: Introduction
Overview
The MIL-SM4804G switch is a stackable Fast Ethernet switch with 48 10BASE-T/
100BASE-TX ports, and two 1000BASE-T ports1 that operate in combination with
two Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots. These switches also
provide two 1 Gbps built-in stacking ports for connecting up to four MIL-SM4804G
units in a stack. The stacking ports can also be used as normal Ethernet ports in
standalone mode. The switch also includes an SNMP-based management agent,
which provides both in-band and out-of-band access for managing the switch.
The MIL-SM4804G provides a broad range of powerful features for Layer 2
switching, delivering reliability and consistent performance for your network traffic.
They bring order to poorly performing networks by segregating them into separate
broadcast domains with IEEE 802.3Q compliant VLANs, and empowers multimedia
applications with multicast switching and CoS services.

Introduction

Switch Architecture
The MIL-SM4804G employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric2. This
permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all
ports. The switches also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively
doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
The switches uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity.
With store-and-forward switching, the entire packet must be received into a buffer
and checked for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being
propagated throughout the network.
The switches include built-in stacking ports that allow multiple units to connected
together through a 4 Gbps stack backplane. The switch stack can be managed from
a master unit using a single IP address.

Network Management Options
With a comprehensive array of LEDs, the MIL-SM4804G switch provides “at a
glance” monitoring of network and port status. The switches can be managed over
the network with a web browser or Telnet application, or via a direct connection to
the console port. The switches includes a built-in network management agent that
allows them to be managed in-band using SNMP or RMON (Groups 1, 2, 3, 9)
protocols. They also have an RS-232 serial port (DB-9 connector) on the front panel
for out-of-band management. A PC may be connected to this port for configuration
and monitoring out-of-band via a null-modem serial cable. (See Appendix B for wiring
options.)
For a detailed description of the advanced features, refer to the Management Guide.

Description of Hardware
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports
The MIL-SM4804G switch contains 48 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 ports. All
ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through
cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.
(See “10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments” on page B-1.)
Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode
(half or full duplex), and data rate (10 or 100 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If
a device connected to one of these ports does not support auto-negotiation, the
communication mode of that port can be configured manually.
2. Non-blocking switching is used for traffic crossing ports attached to the same switch ASIC;
while blocking is employed for traffic passing between different switch chips. The
MIL-SM4804G has two switch chips – ASIC#1: Ports 1-12, 25-36, 49, 51 and ASIC#2: Ports
13-24, 37-48, 50, 52.

1-2

1

Description of Hardware

Each port also supports IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow control3, so the switch
can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.

1000BASE-T/SFP Ports
These are combination Gigabit RJ-45 ports with shared Small Form Factor
Pluggable (SFP) transceiver slots (See Figure 1-1, Ports 25-26/49-50). If an SFP
transceiver (purchased separately) is installed in a slot and has a valid link on the
port, the associated RJ-45 port is disabled.
The 1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can
use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other
switches or hubs. (See “1000BASE-T Pin Assignments” on page B-3.)

3. Flow control is only supported for ports attached to the same switch ASIC. The MIL-SM4804G
has two switch chips– ASIC#1: Ports 1-12, 25-36, 49, 51 and ASIC#2: Ports 13-24, 37-48, 50,
52.

Introduction

Stacking Ports
The unit provides two stacking ports that provide a 4 Gbps stack backplane
connection. You can stack up to four MIL-SM4804G units using Category 5 Ethernet
cables (purchased separately). The Master button enables one switch in the stack to
be selected as the master. This is the unit through which you manage the entire
stack.
The stacking ports can also be used as normal Ethernet ports in standalone mode
by pressing the Uplink button.

Chapter 2: Network Planning
Introduction to Switching
A network switch allows simultaneous transmission of multiple packets via
non-crossbar switching. This means that it can partition a network more efficiently
than bridges or routers. The switch has, therefore, been recognized as one of the
most important building blocks for today’s networking technology.
When performance bottlenecks are caused by congestion at the network access
point (such as the network card for a high-volume file server), the device
experiencing congestion (server, power user, or hub) can be attached directly to a
switched port. And, by using full-duplex mode, the bandwidth of the dedicated
segment can be doubled to maximize throughput.
When networks are based on repeater (hub) technology, the distance between end
stations is limited by a maximum hop count. However, a switch turns the hop count
back to zero. So subdividing the network into smaller and more manageable
segments, and linking them to the larger network by means of a switch, removes this
limitation.
A switch can be easily configured in any Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet
network to significantly boost bandwidth while using conventional cabling and
network cards.

Application Examples
The MIL-SM4804G switch is not only designed to segment your network, but also to
provide a wide range of options in setting up network connections. Some typical
applications are described below.

Collapsed Backbone
The MIL-SM4804G is an excellent choice for mixed Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and
Gigabit Ethernet installations where significant growth is expected in the near future.
You can easily build on this basic configuration, adding direct full-duplex
connections to workstations or servers. When the time comes for further expansion,
just connect to another hub or switch using one of the Fast Ethernet or Gigabit
Ethernet ports.
In the figure below, the switch is operating as a collapsed backbone for a small LAN.
It is providing dedicated 10 Mbps full-duplex connections to workstations, 100 Mbps
full-duplex connections to power users, and 1 Gbps full-duplex connections to
servers.

Application Examples

Network Aggregation Plan
When used in standalone mode, the MIL-SM4804G provides 52 parallel bridging
ports (i.e., 52 distinct collision domains), which can be used to collapse a complex
network down into a single efficient bridged node, increasing overall bandwidth and
throughput.
You can stack up to four MIL-SM4804G switch units together, forming a single
“virtual” switch containing up to 200 ports. The whole stack can be managed through
the Master unit using a single IP address.
In the figure below, the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports on the MIL-SM4804G switch
are providing 100 Mbps connectivity for up to 24 segments. In addition, the switch is
also connecting several servers at 1000 Mbps.

Remote Connections with Fiber Cable
Fiber optic technology allows for longer cabling than any other media type. A
1000BASE-SX (MMF) link can connect to a site up to 550 meters away, a
1000BASE-LX (SMF) link up to 5 km, and a 1000BASE-LH link up to 70 km. This
allows a Gigabit Ethernet Switch to serve as a collapsed backbone, providing direct
connectivity for a widespread LAN.
The figure below illustrates this switch connecting multiple segments with fiber
cable.

Application Examples

Making VLAN Connections
This switch supports VLANs which can be used to organize any group of network
nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the
originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks. This
provides a more secure and cleaner network environment.
VLANs can be based on untagged port groups, or traffic can be explicitly tagged to
identify the VLAN group to which it belongs. Untagged VLANs can be used for small
networks attached to a single switch. However, tagged VLANs should be used for
larger networks, and all the VLANs assigned to the inter-switch links.

Application Notes
1.

Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a
switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch
is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode.

2.

Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually
required to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may
degrade overall performance for the segment attached to the hub.

3.

As a general rule the length of fiber optic cable for a single switched link should
not exceed:
• 1000BASE-SX: 550 m (1805 ft) for multimode fiber.
• 1000BASE-LX: 5 km (3.1 miles) for singlemode fiber.
• 1000BASE-LH: 70 km (43.5 miles) for singlemode fiber.
However, power budget constraints must also be considered when calculating
the maximum cable length for your specific environment.

4.

The maximum number of units that can be stacked together are:
• 4 MIL-SM4804G units

2-6

Chapter 3: Installing the Switch
Selecting a Site
Switch units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat
surface. Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location.
• The site should:
- be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet.
- be able to maintain its temperature within
0 to 50 °C (32 to 122 °F) for the MIL-SM4804G, and
its humidity within 5% to 95%, non-condensing
- provide adequate space (approximately two inches) on all sides for proper air
flow
- be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the devices
- allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible
• Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines, fluorescent
lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical interference, such as radios and
transmitters.
• Make sure that the unit is connected to a separate grounded power outlet that
provides 100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz, is within 2 m (6.6 feet) of each device and
is powered from an independent circuit breaker. As with any equipment, using a
filter or surge suppressor is recommended.

Ethernet Cabling
To ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network, make sure that
the current cables are suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T
operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your
network:
• Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables
with RJ-45 connectors; Category 3 or better for 10BASE-T, Category 5 or better
for 100BASE-TX, and Category 5, 5e or 6 for 1000BASE-T.
• Protection from radio frequency interference emissions
• Electrical surge suppression
• Separation of electrical wires (switch related or other) and electromagnetic fields
from data based network wiring
• Safe connections with no damaged cables, connectors or shields

Installing an Optional SFP Transceiver

Figure 3-5 Installing an SFP Transceiver into a slot

This switch supports 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, and 1000BASE-LH SFP
transceivers. To install an SFP transceiver, do the following:
1.

Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate SFP
transceiver type.

2.

Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot
connector facing down. Note that SFP transceivers are keyed so they can only
be installed in one orientation.

3.

Slide the SFP transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.

Note: SFP transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need to be powered off
before installing or removing a transceiver. However, always first disconnect the
network cable before removing a transceiver.
Note: SFP transceivers are not provided in the switch package.

Connecting Switches in a Stack
Figure 3-6 shows how the stack cables are connected between switches in a stack.
The connection is based on Gigabit Ethernet, using Category 5 or better cables. The
switch supports a line- and ring-topology stacking configuration, or can be used stand
alone.

In line-topology stacking there is a single stack cable connection between each
switch that carries two-way communications across the stack. In ring-topology
stacking, an extra cable is connected between the top and bottom switches forming
a “ring” or “closed-loop.” The closed-loop cable provides a redundant path for the
stack link, so if one link fails, stack communications can be maintained. Figure 3-6
illustrates a ring-topology stacking configuration.

3-6

3

Connecting Switches in a Stack

You can form a stack containing up to four MIL-SM4804G units. To connect switches
in a stack, perform the following steps:
1.

Enable the stacking ports on each unit (i.e., the Stack button pushed out)
Note: Pressing the Stack button during normal operation will cause the system to
reboot.

2.

Plug one end of a stack cable (ordered separately) into the Down (left) port of
the top unit.

3.

Plug the other end of the stack cable into the Up (right) port of the next unit.

4.

Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each unit in the stack. Form a simple chain starting at
the Down port on the top unit and ending at the Up port on the bottom unit
(stacking up to 4 units).

5.

(Optional) To form a wrap-around topology, plug one end of a stack cable into
the Down port on the bottom unit and the other end into the Up port on the top
unit.

Chapter 4: Making Network Connections
Connecting Network Devices
These switches are designed to be connected to 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps network
cards in PCs and servers, as well as to other switches and hubs. They may also be
connected to remote devices using optional 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, or
1000BASE-LH SFP transceivers.

Twisted-Pair Devices
Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors
at both ends. Use Category 5, 5e or 6 cable for 1000BASE-T connections, Category
5 or better for 100BASE-TX connections, and Category 3 or better for 10BASE-T
connections.

Cabling Guidelines
The RJ-45 ports on these switches support automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout
configuration, so you can use standard straight-through twisted-pair cables to
connect to any other network device (PCs, servers, switches, routers, or hubs).
See Appendix B for further information on cabling.
Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This will damage the
switch. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform to
FCC standards.

4-1

Making Network Connections

Connecting to PCs, Servers, Hubs and Switches
1.

Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable segment to the device’s RJ-45
connector.

Figure 4-1 Making Twisted-Pair Connections

2.

If the device is a network card and the switch is in the wiring closet, attach the
other end of the cable segment to a modular wall outlet that is connected to the
wiring closet. (See the section “Network Wiring Connections.”) Otherwise,
attach the other end to an available port on the switch.
Make sure each twisted pair cable does not exceed 100 meters (328 ft) in
length.

Note: Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually required
to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade
overall performance for the segment attached to the hub.

3.

As each connection is made, the Link LED (on the switch) corresponding to
each port will light to indicate that the connection is valid.

Network Wiring Connections
Today, the punch-down block is an integral part of many of the newer equipment
racks. It is actually part of the patch panel. Instructions for making connections in the
wiring closet with this type of equipment follows.
1.

Attach one end of a patch cable to an available port on the switch, and the other
end to the patch panel.

2.

If not already in place, attach one end of a cable segment to the back of the
patch panel where the punch-down block is located, and the other end to a
modular wall outlet.

Fiber Optic SFP Devices
An optional Gigabit SFP transceiver (1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, or
1000BASE-LH) can be used for a backbone connection between switches, or for
connecting to a high-speed server.
Each single-mode fiber port requires 9/125 micron single-mode fiber optic cable with
an LC connector at both ends. Each multimode fiber optic port requires 50/125 or
62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic cabling with an LC connector at both ends.
Warning: This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are
compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently
eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a
transmit port when it is powered on.
Note: When selecting a fiber SFP device, considering safety, please make sure that it
can function at a temperature that is not less than the recommended maximum
operational temperature of the product. You must also use an approved Laser
Class 1 SFP transceiver.
Hinweis: Bei der Wahl eines Glasfasertransceivers muß für die Beurteilung der
Gesamtsicherheit beachtet werden, das die maximale Umgebungstemperatur
des Transceivers für den Betrieb nicht niedriger ist als die für dieses Produkts.
Der Glasfasertransceiver muß auch ein überprüftes Gerät der Laser Klasse 1
sein.

1.

Remove and keep the LC port’s rubber plug. When not connected to a fiber
cable, the rubber plug should be replaced to protect the optics.

2.

Check that the fiber terminators are clean. You can clean the cable plugs by
wiping them gently with a clean tissue or cotton ball moistened with a little
ethanol. Dirty fiber terminators on fiber optic cables will impair the quality of the
light transmitted through the cable and lead to degraded performance on the
port.

4-4

4

Connectivity Rules
3.

Connect one end of the cable to the LC port on the switch and the other end to
the LC port on the other device. Since LC connectors are keyed, the cable can
be attached in only one orientation.

46

Figure 4-3 Making Fiber Port Connections

4.

As a connection is made, check the Link LED on the switch corresponding to
the port to be sure that the connection is valid.

The 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, 1000BASE-LH fiber optic ports operate at
1 Gbps, full duplex, with auto-negotiation of flow control. The maximum length for
fiber optic cable operating at Gigabit speed will depend on the fiber type as listed
under “1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Collision Domain” on page 4-6.

Connectivity Rules
When adding hubs (repeaters) to your network, please follow the connectivity rules
listed in the manuals for these products. However, note that because switches break
up the path for connected devices into separate collision domains, you should not
include the switch or connected cabling in your calculations for cascade length
involving other devices.

1000BASE-T Cable Requirements
All Category 5 UTP cables that are used for 100BASE-TX connections should also
work for 1000BASE-T, providing that all four wire pairs are connected. However, it is
recommended that for all critical connections, or any new cable installations,
Category 5e (enhanced Category 5) or Category 6 cable should be used. The
Category 5e and 6 specifications include test parameters that are only
recommendations for Category 5. Therefore, the first step in preparing existing

4-5

Cable Labeling and Connection Records
When planning a network installation, it is essential to label the opposing ends of
cables and to record where each cable is connected. Doing so will enable you to
easily locate inter-connected devices, isolate faults and change your topology
without need for unnecessary time consumption.
To best manage the physical implementations of your network, follow these
guidelines:
• Clearly label the opposing ends of each cable.
• Using your building’s floor plans, draw a map of the location of all
network-connected equipment. For each piece of equipment, identify the devices
to which it is connected.
• Note the length of each cable and the maximum cable length supported by the
switch ports.
• For ease of understanding, use a location-based key when assigning prefixes to
your cable labeling.
• Use sequential numbers for cables that originate from the same equipment.
• Differentiate between racks by naming accordingly.
• Label each separate piece of equipment.
• Display a copy of your equipment map, including keys to all abbreviations at each
equipment rack.

Troubleshooting

Power and Cooling Problems
If the power indicator does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may
have a problem with the power outlet, power cord, or internal power supply.
However, if the unit powers off after running for a while, check for loose power
connections, power losses or surges at the power outlet. If you still cannot isolate
the problem, the internal power supply may be defective.

Installation
Verify that all system components have been properly installed. If one or more
components appear to be malfunctioning (such as the power cord or network
cabling), test them in an alternate environment where you are sure that all the other
components are functioning properly.

In-Band Access
You can access the management agent in the switch from anywhere within the
attached network using Telnet, a web browser, or other network management
software tools. However, you must first configure the switch with a valid IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway. If you have trouble establishing a link to the
management agent, check to see if you have a valid network connection. Then
verify that you entered the correct IP address. Also, be sure the port through which
you are connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled,
then check the network cabling that runs between your remote location and the
switch.
Note:

The management agent accepts up to four simultaneous Telnet sessions. If the
maximum number of sessions already exists, an additional Telnet connection
will not be able to log into the system.

Stack Troubleshooting
If a stack fails to initialize or function, first check the following items:
•
•
•
•
•

Check that all stacking cables are properly connected.
Check if any stacking cables appear damaged.
Check that the Master select button is pressed in on only one unit in the stack.
Check that each unit has the stacking ports enabled (the Stack button pushed out).
Check that all switches in the stack are powered on.

After checking all items, reboot all the switches in the stack.

Appendix B: Cables
Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments
For 10/100BASE-TX connections, the twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of
wires. For 1000BASE-T connections the twisted-pair cable must have four pairs of
wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire
might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector
must be attached to both ends of the cable.
Caution:

DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. Use only
twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.

Caution:

Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific
orientation. (See “Straight-Through Wiring” and “Crossover Wiring” on the
next page for an explanation.)

The figure below illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are numbered. Be
sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when attaching the wires to the
pins.

Figure B-1 RJ-45 Connector Pin Numbers

10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments
Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45
connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps connections, or
100-ohm Category 5 or better cable for 100 Mbps connections. Also be sure that the
length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
The RJ-45 ports on the switch base unit support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so
you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or
to other switches or hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of
the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 at the other end of
the cable. When using any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either
straight-through or crossover cable.

Straight-Through Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal
crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. (When
auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either
straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.)
You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support
Gigabit Ethernet.

implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on
this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any
device type.)

1000BASE-T Pin Assignments
All 1000BASE-T ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use
straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other
switches or hubs.
The table below shows the 1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port pinouts. These ports
require that all four pairs of wires be connected. Note that for 1000BASE-T
operation, all four pairs of wires are used for both transmit and receive.
Use 100-ohm Category 5, 5e or 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded
twisted-pair (STP) cable for 1000BASE-T connections. Also be sure that the length
of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

Cable Testing for Existing Category 5 Cable
Installed Category 5 cabling must pass tests for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk
(NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT). This cable testing information is specified in
the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-67 standard. Additionally, cables must also pass test
parameters for Return Loss and Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT). These
tests are specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-95 Bulletin, “The Additional
Transmission Performance Guidelines for 100 Ohm 4-Pair Category 5 Cabling.”
Note that when testing your cable installation, be sure to include all patch cables
between switches and end devices.

Adjusting Existing Category 5 Cabling to Run 1000BASE-T
If your existing Category 5 installation does not meet one of the test parameters for
1000BASE-T, there are basically three measures that can be applied to try and
correct the problem:
1. Replace any Category 5 patch cables with high-performance Category 5e or
Category 6 cables.
2. Reduce the number of connectors used in the link.
3. Reconnect some of the connectors in the link.

Fiber Standards
The current TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association) 568-A specification on
optical fiber cabling consists of one recognized cable type for horizontal subsystems
and two cable types for backbone subsystems.
Horizontal 62.5/125 micron multimode (two fibers per outlet).
Backbone 62.5/125 micron multimode or single-mode.
TIA 568-B will allow the use of 50/125 micron multimode optical fiber in both the
horizontal and backbone in addition to the types listed above. All optical fiber
components and installation practices must meet applicable building and safety
codes.
