1.Using standard twisted pair media, insert either end of the cable with an RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45 connector of the port. Note that, even though the connector is shielded, either unshielded or shielded cables and wiring may be used.

2.Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding device

3.Use the LINK LED to ensure proper connectivity by noting that the LED will be illuminated when the unit is powered and proper connection is established.

3.3Table-Top or Shelf Mounting

The LE14XXA-Series Switches can be easily mounted on a table-top or any suitable horizontal surface, and has four rubber feet to provide stability without scratching finished surfaces.

3.3.1Wall (or Vertical Surface) Mounting, 8-port LE1401A

Each LE1401A Switch is shipped with two metal mounting brackets (and screws) to allow the unit to be mounted in nearly any desired orientation or position. The brackets are attached to the metal hub case using one of the metal screws for each bracket, and attached to th LE1401A through the round hole of the bracket. A user-supplied screw attaches the bracket to the mounting surface. It is recommended that the mounting brackets be attached to two opposit corners of the unit. When properly attached, the brackets will extend slightly below the base of the unit to allow clearance for the rubber feet and for cooling fan exhaust space.
