Chapter 2: Setup and Configuration

This chapter provides information on pre-installation requirements, establishing network connections, and configuring the system.

Pre-Installation Requirements

Before you start making network connections to the SwitcHub, make sure you can provide the right operating environment, including power requirements, and proximity to other network devices that are to be connected. Verify the following installation requirements:

Power requirements: 100 to 240 VAC at 50 to 60 Hz. The switch’s power supply automatically detects the input voltage level.

The SwitcHub should be located in a cool dry place, with at least 10 cm. of space at the front and back for ventilation.

Check if network cables and connectors needed for installation are available.

Find a suitable location at the center of the devices you want to link, and near a power outlet.

Connecting the Switch System

The SwitcHub has one RJ-45 Ethernet port, and one fiber optic port (with SC or ST type connectors). Use twisted-pair cable to connect the RJ-45 MDI-X port to a server/workstation, or to connect the RJ-45 MDI port to another compatible switch or hub; and use 50/125 mm or 62.5/125 mm guage multimode fiber optic cable with SC or ST type connectors (depending on the SwitcHub model you purchased) to connect any compatible network device to the Rx/Tx jacks. The SwitcHub can be used to connect 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T networks to a fiber optic backbone; or can be used to significantly extend a 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T network with an intermediate fiber optic link (i.e., by chaining several switches).
