The figure below shows the front panel of the Switch. Figure 1-1 Front Panel View of the Switch • 10/100Mbps Ports (Port 1~24): These ports support 10/100Mbps, and can operate in Half/Full Duplex transfer modes. These ports also support automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, offering true “plug and play” function. • LED Indicators: Comprehensive LED indicators display the status of the Switch and the network (see Section 1.2.3). 3 1.2.2 Rear Panel Figure 1-2 Rear Panel View of the Switch • AC Power Connector: Supports AC 100~240V, 50~60Hz. NOTE: Do not cover or put anything on or surrounding the Switch while the Switch is operating. 1.2.3 LED indicators information The front panel LEDs provide instant status feedback and help monitoring and troubleshooting when needed.

Please refer to the Technical Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges. • Please install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight. • When connecting the power cord to the Switch and the power outlet, the distance should be no more than 182cm. • Please leave at least 10cm (about 4 inches) of space at the front and rear of the Switch for ventilation. 2.2 Desktop or Shelf Installation When installing the Switch on the desktop or shelf, please attach the rubber feet to the Switch. Peel off the protective paper on the pads and attach them to the bottom of the Switch (one at each corner). 6 2.3 Rack Installation The Switch is rack-mountable and can be installed on an EIA 11-inch equipment rack. To do this, first install the mounting brackets on the Switch’s side panels (one on each side), secure them with the included screws, and then use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the Switch. 2.4 Power on the Switch The Switch has a universal power supply ranging from 100V to 240V AC, 50 ~ 60Hz power source. The AC power connector is located at the rear of the unit. The Switch’s power supply will adjust to the local power source automatically. 7 Section 3 Section 3 Connecting the Switch This section describes how to connect the Switch to your 10/100Mbps Ethernet network. Your network device (i.e. computer, switch, IP Camera, VoIP) can be connected to any port of the Switch via a two-pair UTP Category 5 Cable. If the LED indicators do not light up after making a proper connection, check your network device, the cable, the Switch conditions and connections. 8 Section 4 Section 4 Troubleshooting 1. Power LED is not on • Check if the power adapter is properly connected to the power outlet. Make sure the power jack is firmly plugged into the power socket of the switch. 2. Link/Activity is not lit when connect to 10/100Mbps device • Made sure that the network device attached to the switch is turned ON. • Check the network cable; make sure it is properly connected to the switch and the network device. • Check the network cable; make sure the Ethernet cables comply with the specifications described in Section 2. 9 Section 5 Section 5 Technical Specifications Standards • IEEE 802.3 10BASE–T, IEEE 802.3u 100BASE–TX, IEEE 802.3x Flow Control and IEEE 802.3az(EEE – Energy Efficient Ethernet) Network Cables • Ethernet (10Base-T): Cables: 2-pair UTP Cat. 3, 4, 5, Twisted Pair (UTP).
