Operating Environment

This smart switch must be installed and operated within the limits of the specified operating temperature and humidity (see previous section on Specifications). Do not place objects on top of the unit or obstruct any vents at the sides of the unit. Do not position the unit near any heating source such as heaters, radiators, or direct exposure to sun. Do not expose the unit to water and or moisture. If necessary, use a dehumidifier to reduce humidity.

Connecting to network devices

1.All ports of this switch support the Auto-MDI/MDI-X function. That is to say, you can connect any device (including PC, Switch, Hub) to a port of this switch using a regular cable. The RJ-45 port will auto-detect and auto-switch to the correct MDI/MDI-X mode. (do not need to connect to a specific uplink port or cross-over cable)

2.Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the front panel, and connect the other end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the network device. Follow the same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports of the switch. Maximum length, using UTP cable, between the switch and connected device is 100 meters (300ft). Once the network cable is connected to both ends and the attached network device is powered on, the LNK/ACT LED should be lit.

3.Make sure the wiring is correct. You need to use Category 3/4/5 cable for 10Mbps operation or Category 5 cable for 100Mbps connections.

Connecting the power

Plug the power cable into the internal three-pronged power plug. Connect it to an electrical outlet then turn on the switch.
