Congratulations on the purchase of your new Kingston Fast EtheRx
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Kingston Fast EtheRx
10/100BASE-TX Rack-Mountable Fast Ethernet Switch. There are three models
available, the KNS1650/R, the KNS2450/R and the KNS3250/R, 16-ports,
24-ports and 32-ports, respectively. The Fast EtheRx Switch is a high-performance
10/100BASE-TX switch ideal for the small-to-medium businesses. The Fast
EtheRx Switch has sixteen (16), twenty-four (24) or thirty-two (32) UTP ports
(depending on model) that auto-negotiate speed detection for 10/100BASE-TX
and half-duplex / full-duplex mode operation. The Kingston Fast EtheRx Switch
allows standard 10BASE-T Ethernet networks to communicate with 100BASE-TX
Fast Ethernet networks and to segment both 10Mbps and 100Mbps networks.
The KNS1650/R, KNS2450/R, and KNS3250/R switches also provide additional
features such as VLAN, link trunking, broadcast storm control, secure mode trafc
ltering and ow control. The Fast EtheRx Switch complies with IEEE802.3u
100BASE-TX, IEEE802.3i 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3x and IEEE802.3 CSMA/CD
Ethernet Standards.
The Fast EtheRx Switch may be used in both standard desktop and 19” rack-
mount installations (using the mounting brackets provided with the unit). For
easy recognition of network status and troubleshooting, the front panel includes
a variety of diagnostic LEDs including Power, 100TX Speed Detection, Link,
Receive, Transmit, Collision, and Full-Duplex status.
For the remainder of this manual, the KNS1650/R, KNS2450/R, and KNS3250/R
will be referred to collectively as the Fast EtheRx Switch.
