LED Indicator:

Comprehensive LED indicators display the status of the switch and the network (see the LED Indicators section below).

Gigabit Ethernet Ports (Port 1~24):

The Switch is equipped with two Gigabit copper ports which support auto negotiating 10/100/1000Mbps and auto MDI/MDIX crossover detection. The support for automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection provides true “plug and play” capability, you just need to plug the network cable into the Switch and don’t need to worry if the end node is a computer, switch, or other network device. These two ports can operate in half-duplex mode for 10/100Mbps and full-duplex mode for 10/100/1000Mbps.

AC Power Connector:

This is a three-pronged connector that supports the power cord. Plug in the female connector of the provided power cord into this connector, and the male into a power outlet. Supported input voltage range is 100-240V AC at 50-60Hz.

Reset:

The Reset button is used to reset all of the settings back to the factory default.

Note: Be sure that you record the settings of your Switch before performing a reset, as all settings will be erased after pressing the “Reset” button.
