Port Module Installation

The Switch supports various slide-in port modules which can be installed into the slots to provide interface to different network media like twisted- pair, thin coaxial cable, and fiber-optic cable. Four slide-in port modules are available for use with the Switch: DES-108FL, DES-108FX, DES-108TX, and DES-108C providing ST, SC, RJ-45, and BNC connectors, respectively. Each module comes with two switched ports, thus allowing maximum port configuration of eight switched ports.

Follow these steps to install a module,

1.Turn off the system (if already on), and unplug it from the power outlet.

2.Choose a slot to install the module. When choosing a slot, take into consideration the nodes you intend to connect to the module’s ports.

3.Remove the coverplate or module (if there is one installed) from the selected slot. Use the provided hex screwdriver to loosen and remove the screws. Set aside these screws.

4.Align the module with the railings on the slot, and then push the module all the way in until it locks into place.

5.Secure the module on the slot with the screws you removed in step 3. Use the same screwdriver to tighten the screws.

Connecting Power

The Switch features a power supply unit that automatically adjusts to the level of the input voltage. Supported voltage levels range from 100V to 240V AC at 50 to 60 Hz. Your local voltage level should fall within this range.
