Chapter 1 Introduction
MIL-S1000 switches are multi-speed network devices
combining Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet
capabilities in a single compact, rack-mountable cabinet.
Combining 10Mbps Ethernet, 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in one unit allows these
switches to unclog existing LANs and provide a path to
efficient, high-speed networking.
The MIL-S1000 switch is a combination of a 4-slot host
cabinet which accepts 4 different media modules and One
RS-232 port for SNMP(Optional). A maximum configuration
of 32 x 10/100Base-Tx switched ports can be achieved
using 4×8 port 10/100Base-Tx modules. In the same way,
a maximum configuration of 32×10/100Base-TX or
16×100Base-FX ports or 4x 1000Base-SX can be
accommodated in the host cabling. Any of the above
modules can be integrated to give up to many different
configurations.
