Stack Master Button
The Stack Master button enables one switch in the stack to be selected as the master. Seven other switches can be stacked together and they should be placed in "Slave" mode. When operating in a
Power Supply Receptacle
The standard power receptacle is for the AC power cord. It is located on the rear panel of the switch.
MAX A/V Network
The switch is an excellent choice for mixed AMX equipment such as the NXA- WAP 200 G wireless access points, AVMs, Breakout Boxes and MAX. You can easily build on this basic configuration, adding direct
The switch automatically identifies MAX streams to the AVMs so no configuration is required by the installer.
Ports

1 - 24 | Ports 1 - 24 can be used to connect AMX’s Master, AVMs, Breakout |
| Boxes, WAP 200 Gs and/or other Ethernet based devices requiring 10 |
| or 100 Mbps data throughput. |
25This port provides 10/100/1000 Mbps data throughput and can be used to support MAX units or stacking other switches together.
26This port provides 10/100/1000 Mbps data throughput and can be used to support MAX units, or connections to the LAN/Internet.
10/100BASE-T Ports
The switch base unit contains 24
Each of these ports support
Each port also supports IEEE 802.3x
1000BASE-T/SFP Ports
These are combination Gigabit

Application Notes
1.
2.Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually required to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade overall performance for the segment attached to the hub.
3.As a general rule the length of fiber optic cable for a single switched link should not exceed:
•
•
•
However, power budget constraints must also be considered when calculating the maximum cable length for your specific environment.
Installing the Switch
Selecting a Site
Switch units can be mounted in a standard
The site should:
•be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet.
•be able to maintain its temperature within 0 to 50 °C (32 to 122 °F), and its humidity within 5% to 95%,
•provide adequate space (approximately two inches) on all sides for proper air flow
•be accessible for installing, cabling, and maintaining the devices
•allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible
Make sure that
