Installation

yRack Mounting

The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard 19-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. Attach the mounting brackets at the switch’s front panel (one on each side), and secure them with the provided screws. Then, use screws provided with the equipment rack to mount each switch in the rack.

yConnecting your network

The switch provides up to 24 ports for 10/100BaseTX. Just connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one RJ-45 connector into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the other RJ-45 connector into the station’s network adapter. Power on the switch and then system is ready.

In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to connect another switch with straight or crossover cable.
