Page 1MFS-8 NETWORKSWITCHINSTALLATIONMANUALIntroductionThe MFS-8 Network switch is the ideal "Plug-n-Play" solution to pro-tect network WAP's (Wireless Access Points) from multicast audiostreams.Total Control products, like the DMS-1200 (Digital Multi-zoneAmplifier), DMS-100 (Digital Single-Zone Digital Amplifier) and theSNP-1 (Streaming Network Player), all multicast audio streams ontothe LAN. The nature of a "multicast" will shut down all wirelessaccess to the network. The MFS-8 was specifically designed for usewith Total Control Systems and incorporates pre-configured MACfiltering. MAC Filtering completely solves the issue by confiningmulticast streams to the switch itself, never allowing streams toaffect network traffic in the rest of the house. Pre-configurationmeans you don't have to be a Network Engineer to configure thisswitch, simply plug your Total Control products into any port andyou're ready to go. "Plug-n-Play" integration produces reliable, predictable network performance.Warning: NEVER plug a WAP (Wireless Access Point) into the MFS-8, since URC multicast audio streams will shut down any brand ormodel of WAP.FeaturesEight (8) ports plus one LAN port. Mac filtering prevents audio streams from consuming net-work bandwidth. Activity and Status LEDs plus Connectivity indicator. Includes 12 volt power supply.Parts Guide1 - MFS-8 MAC Filtering Switch1 - 1.5M CAT5 Ethernet Cable1 - 12V AC Power Adapter1 - Wall Mount Plate and Four Mounting Screws1 - Quick Install Guide

Streams are confined to theswitch, optimizing local area network performance.Network Connectivity and Activity Status Indicators (port specific):Status indicator LEDs display network connectivity, and networktraffic feedback, for easy troubleshooting.Wall Mount Bracket: Convenient removable wall bracket allows theMFS-8 to be mounted to the back of a cabinet or rack.

Page 4MFS-8 Installation ConsiderationsOnly one MAC Filtering switch should be used in a typical TotalControl system. All streaming products like the DMS-1200, DMS-100 and SNP-1 must be connected to the switch. You cannot daisy-chain MFS-8 MAC Filtering switches; communica-tion between switches will be blocked. If you have more than eightof the above streaming components, simply connect a standard net-work switch to any port on the MFS-8 and then connect the addi-tional components to the standard switch. This allows the additionalcomponents to benefit from the MFS-8's MAC Filtering, withoutaffecting communication between devices. Warning: NEVER plug a WAP (Wireless Access Point) into theMFS-8, it will not function correctlyInstallationInstallation1. On the back of the MFS-8, connect one end of a CAT5 cable tothe port labeled LAN 10/100.2. Connect the other end of the CAT5 cable to the LAN(Local AreaNetwork).3. Connect Total Control and standard network devices to any ofthe eight 10/100 Smart Ports.4. Connect the supplied 12V Power Supply to the MFS-8 and thenplug it into an unswitchedAC outlet.5. Once powered up, the unit begins working in approximately 30seconds.MFS-8 NETWORKSWITCHINSTALLATIONMANUALXOKDo Not Daisy-Chain MFS-8’sCable ModemInternetWi-Fi RouterMFS-8MFS-8MFS-8Standard Network Switch

Page 7MFS-8 NETWORKSWITCHINSTALLATIONMANUALMFS-8 Installed in the area with theNetworkDistributionOccasionally you get a retrofit installation where only one CAT5wire has been run to a room, and there's no way to run anotherone. In this case, locate the MFS-8 in the Utility Room, Garage, orwhere ever the central distribution point for the Network is located,and install standard network switches in rooms where you plan tolocate a DMS-1200, DMS-1200 or SNP-1.Notes: The Wireless Access Point CANNOT be connected to the MFS-8; it must be connected to the Router in the LAN.Standard network switches are used to connect the DMS-1200, DMS-100 and SNP-1 to the MFS-8. This configurationprovides MAC Filtering to the Total Control streaming compo-nents, while freeing up additional ports on the MFS-8 to con-nect PoE devices like Keypads and IP Cameras.A MRX-10 doesn't have to be connected to the MFS-8, but canbe connected to a MFS-8 when convenient to do so.Contral Distribution Pointfor Network WiringStandard Network Switch(Network for the rest of the House)MFS-8 MRX-10Standard Network SwitchDMS-100SNP-1DMS-1200Attic OfficeFamily RoomCable ModemInternetWi-Fi RouterwirelessAccessPoint
Page 8MFS-8 NETWORKSWITCHINSTALLATIONMANUALFrequently Asked Questions1. Do I need to use a MFS-8 in a Total Control system?If you are only controlling a Home Theater with a MRX-10, andthere are no Total Control streaming sources like the DMS-1200 orDMS-100 in the system, then the answer is NO, you do not need touse a MFS-8.  If you have DMS-1200(s) or DMS-100(s) in the sys-tem, then the answer is YES, you must use a MFS-8 in the system,connected to those components.2. Can I connect both PoE (Power over Ethernet) devices like KP-4000 keypads and Non-PoE devices to the MFS-8?No, the MFS-8 is not a PoE switch. You may use the MFS-8 topower Keypads and IP Cameras.3. What if I have more than eight streaming devices? You can connect a standard network switch to the MFS-8 to expandthe MAC Filtering capabilities of the MFS-8. 4. Can I connect a WAP (Wireless Access Point) to the MFS-8?No, the WAP will not function properly when multiple streams areoccurring in the system. Connect the WAP to a standard PoE net-work switch, outside of the MFS-8. Never connect a WAP to theMFS-8.5. I have one CAT5 cable going to a room where my client has anetwork printer and a PC and I need to install a DMS-100 SingleZone Amplifier, via the same CAT5 cable, in the room. How do Iconnect everything?  In the room where you plan to install the DMS-100, connect a stan-dard network switch to the incoming CAT5, and then connect theDMS-100, PC and Printer to the switch. It is not recommended toconnect PC's used for internet gaming to a MFS-8, as this mayaffect the performance of video gaming during heavy stream usage.SpecificationsMicroprocessor: 55MHz RISCMemory: 4 Megabits of Serial Flash, 512KB Flash, 128KB SRAMNetwork: Switching - Eight 10/100 Ethernet ports, LAN - One10/100 Ethernet portPower Supply: 12V External Power SupplySize: 1.5” x 9.8” x 4.9” (H X W x D)Weight: 0.78 lbs.
