1.For fiber-optic connection, please check the opposite end is us- ing the same transmit mode before make the connection.

2.Port#16 of the switch is shared with 100Base-FX port. Make

 NOTE:	sure either Fiber-optic or twisted pair port is being connected.

3.For more information about the Smart function, please refer to Chapter 3.

4.All the DIP is in OFF position by default!

2.3Hardware Installation

1.Place the Switch on a smooth surface

2.Connect the output cord of power supply to the AC inlet.

3.Connect hub or PC to one port of the Switch using Category 3/4/5 UTP/STP cabling.

4.Connect another hub or PC to the other port of Switch by following the same process as described in Step 3.

Notice:

Cable distance for the Switch

The cable distance between the Switch and hub / PC should not exceed 100 meter.

The fiber-optic should not exceed 412 meters in Half-duplex mode and 2 kilome- ters for Full-duplex mode

Make sure the wiring is correct

It can be used Category 3/4/5 cable in 10Mbps operation. To reliably operate your network at 100Mbps, you must use an Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) Category 5 cable, or better Data Grade cabling. While a Category 3 or 4 cable may initially seem to work, it will soon cause data loss.

The fiber-optic cable should be a multi-mode fiber cable with 62.5/125μm or 50/125μm in specification.

You can find the information from the printing of the cable. If you are not familiar with it, please consult your local dealers for the information.

Power System

The Switch accepts AC input with 100~240V AC, 50/60Hz. To prevent from data loss or network downtime, consider install an UPS (Un-interrupt Power Supply) for the Switch. And in some area, a surge suppression device also can help to prevent from the Switch being damaged by un-regulated surge or current to it.

All kinds of hub / PC can connect to switch by using straight-through wires. The Switch also supports auto MDI detection. This means you can direct connect any port of the Switch to another MDI-X devices with a straight wire.
