CHAPTER 1
Getting to Know Your Switch
1.1 Introduction
The GS1300 Series consists of the following models:
• GS1300-10HP
• GS1300-18HP
• GS1300-26HP
All models are referred to as the “Switch” in this guide. The PoE (Power over Ethernet) ports can supply
power to Powered Devices (PDs) such as outdoor devices, ceiling mounted devices, IP cameras, and so
on that are not within reach of a power outlet. The fiber port(s) is for long range uplink connections to
other Layer-2 switches.
The following table describes the hardware features of the Switch by model.
1.2 Example Applications
This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments. Note that the
Switch in the figure is just an example Switch and not your actual Switch.
1.2.1 PoE Example Application
The following example figure shows a Switch supplying PoE (Power over Ethernet) to Powered Devices
(PDs) such as an IP camera, a wireless router, an IP telephone and a general outdoor router that are not
within reach of a power outlet.

CHAPTER 3
Hardware Panels
This chapter describes the front panel and rear panel of the Switch and shows you how to make the
hardware connections.
3.1 Front Panels
The following figures show the front panels of the Switch.
Figure 8 Front Panel: GS1300-10HP
Figure 9 Front Panel: GS1300-18HP
Figure 10 Front Panel: GS1300-26HP
3.2 Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The Switch has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps
Gigabit, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps and the duplex mode can be half duplex
or full duplex.
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100/1000 Mbps)
and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device. When auto-negotiation is turned
on, an Ethernet port negotiates with the peer automatically to determine the connection speed and
duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the
Chapter 3 Hardware Panels
GS1300 Series User’s Guide
14
Switch determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex
mode. When the Switch’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet port uses the pre-configured speed
and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure that the settings of the
peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
All ports are auto-crossover, that is auto-MDIX ports (Media Dependent Interface Crossover), so you may
use either a straight-through Ethernet cable or crossover Ethernet cable for all Gigabit port connections.
Auto-crossover ports automatically sense whether they need to function as crossover or straight ports, so
crossover cables can connect both computers and switches/hubs. An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X)
port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable.
3.2.1 Default Ethernet Negotiation Settings
The factory default negotiation settings for the Gigabit ports on the Switch are:
• Speed: Auto
•Duplex: Auto
• Flow control: Off
• Link Aggregation: Disabled
3.3 Fiber Uplink Ports
The fiber port(s) is for long range uplink connections to other Layer-2 switches.
See Table 1 on page 5 for a comparison table of ports.
3.3.1 SFP Slots
These are slots for SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceivers. A transceiver is a single unit that
houses a transmitter and a receiver. The Switch does not come with transceivers. You must use
transceivers that comply with the Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement
(MSA). See the SFF committee’s INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.
You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to
connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic or even copper cable connectors.
WARNING! To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating
fiber-optic module’s connectors.
• Type: SFP connection interface
• Connection speed: 100/1000 Mbps per second
3.3.1.1 Transceiver Installation
Use the following steps to install an SFP transceiver.
1Insert the transceiver into the slot with the exposed section of PCB board facing down.

3.4.1 Grounding
Grounding is a safety measure to have unused electricity return to the ground. It prevents damage to
the Switch, and protects you from electrocution.
Any device that is located outdoors and connected to this product must be properly grounded and
surge protected. To the extent permissible by applicable law, failure to follow these guidelines could
result in damage to your ZyXEL Device which may not be covered by it’s warranty.
Note: The Switch must be grounded by qualified service personnel.
1Remove the M4 ground screw from the Switch’s rear panel.
2Secure a green/yellow ground cable (16 AWG or smaller) to the Switch's rear panel using the M4 ground
screw.
3Attach the other end of the cable to the ground, either to the same ground electrode as the rack you
installed the device on or to the main grounding electrode of the building.
Follow your country's regulations and safety instructions to electrically ground the device properly.
if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available, contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician.
Warning! Connect the ground cable before you connect any other
cables or wiring.

3.5 Power Connector
Note: Make sure you are using the correct power source as shown on the panel.
To connect power to the Switch, insert the female end of the power cord to the AC power receptacle
on the rear panel. Connect the other end of the supplied power cord to a power outlet. Make sure that
no objects obstruct the airflow of the fans (located on the side of the unit).
3.6 PoE
The Switch is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) because it provides a source of power via its Ethernet
ports. Each device that receives power through an Ethernet port is a Powered Device (PD).
The Switch is configured in consumption mode, that is, it supplies the actual power the PD needs (in non-
extended mode) -see Table 2 on page 18.
The Switch supports the following PoE standards:
• IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) Plus.
The difference between them is the maximum power that can be supplied per port. The following table
shows the maximum power that can supplied per port, up to the total PoE power budget for the Switch
- see Table 3 on page 19.
The Switch supplies power with the lowest numbered port having the highest priority by default. For
example, port 1 has the highest priority, port 2 the next, and so on.
Table 2 PoE Maximum Power per Port
STANDARD MAXIMUM POWER PER PORT
IEEE 802.3af 20 W
IEEE 802.3at 33 W
Chapter 3 Hardware Panels
GS1300 Series User’s Guide
19
Key PoE feature comparison is as follows:
3.7 Extended Range
Extended range allows you to connect a PD that is up to 250 m away to a port.
• You must use at least a Cat.5e cable.
• Maximum data speed is 10 Mbps.
• Maximum PoE power that can be supplied to a PD at 250 m is 15 W.
Use the DIP switches to configure extended range. Move the DIP switch up to turn extended range on
ports according to the following table.
Note: After you enable extended range using the dip switch, you must press the Reset &
Apply button to restart the Switch for extended range on selected ports to take effect.
All LEDs blink while the Switch restarts. Please wait until the PWR LED is steady green.The
ports in extended range will have amber LINK/ACT LEDs (as well as ports connected to
a 10 Mbps or a 100 Mbps Ethernet network) and green POE Mode LED.
3.8 LEDs
After you connect the power to the Switch, view the LEDs to ensure proper functioning of the Switch
and as an aid in troubleshooting.
