between end nodes. In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains no data path loops. Between any two ends nodes, there should be only one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast storms that will severely impact your network performance.

Diagnosing LED Indicators

The Switch can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist in identifying problems, which describes common problems you may encounter and where you can find possible solutions.

If the power indicator does turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem with power outlet, or power cord. However, if the Switch powers off after running for a while check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at power outlet. IF you still cannot resolve the problem, contact your local dealer for assistance.

￿Cabling

RJ-45 ports: use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair ( STP )

cable for RJ-45 connections: 100_ Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for 10Mbps connections or 100_ Cat-5 or Cat-5e cable for 100Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet). Gigabit port should use Cat-5e or cat-6 cable for 1000Mbps connections. The length does not exceed 100 meters. For more information please refer to Appendix section.
