This switch provides non-blocking, wire-speed switching at a speed of 10 or 100 Mbps. All ports support auto-negotiation to connect your devices at the same network speed, and auto MDI/MDI-X crossover detection. Each port independently negotiates for best speed at either half- or full-duplex mode, for up to 200 Mbps of bandwidth per port. Fast store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed into the network. Front Panel The LEDs are located on the front panel of the switch. System LED—(Green) This LED lights up and remains lit when the switch is powered on. LEDs 1-5, 1-8, or 1-16—(Green) Each LED lights up when a connection is made through its corresponding port. The LED flashes when the corresponding port is active. 1 Back Panel The Ethernet network ports are located on the back panel of the switch. Ports 1-5, 1-8, or 1-16—These ports connect the switch to network devices such as computers. Side Panels The power port is where you connect the power adapter and is located on the side panel of the switch. The security slot is where you can attach a lock to protect the switch from theft and is located on the opposite side of the switch. Placement Options To install the switch, either set it on its four rubber pads and place it on a flat surface, or mount it on a wall using the wall-mount slots on the bottom panel of the switch. To use the wall-mount option, follow these steps: STEP 1 Attach two screws to the wall such that the wall-mount slots of the switch line up with the two screws: SD205: The screws should be 1.7 in. (43 mm) apart. SD208: The screws should be 2.5 in. (63.5 mm) apart. SD216: The screws should be 2.5 in. (63.5 mm) apart. The wall-mount slots are two crisscross slots on the bottom panel of the switch. STEP 2 Maneuver the switch to insert the screws into the two wall-mount slots. Typical Installation Scenario The following application diagram is an example of a typical network configuration. When you connect your network devices, make sure you do not exceed maximum cabling distance of 328 feet (100 meters). 2

Cisco SD216 16-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch Product Overview The Cisco® SD216 16-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch (Figure 1) can significantly increase the speed of your network traffic. A switch serves the same function as a hub in a network design, tying your network equipment together. But unlike a simple-minded hub, which divides the network’s bandwidth among all the attached devices, a switch delivers full network speeds at each port. Installing this cost-effective 16-port 10/100 switch can potentially give you 16 times the network speed you currently have. It’s also the perfect way to integrate 10-Mbps Ethernet and 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet devices. All 16 ports are auto speed negotiating and have automatic medium dependent interface (MDI) and MDI crossover (MDI-X) detection, so you don’t have to worry about the cable type. Each port independently negotiates for best speed and half- or full-duplex mode, for up to 200 Mbps of bandwidth per port. Fast store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on to the network.
