Installing the Switch
5
Powering On the Switch1. Plug the power cord into the power socket on the rear of the switch, and the
other end into a power outlet.
2. Check the LED marked Power on the front panel to see if it is on. The unit will
automatically select the setting that matches the connected input voltage.
Therefore, no additional adjustments are necessary when connecting it to any
input voltage within the range marked on the rear panel.
3. The switch performs a self-diagnostic test upon power-on. (Note that this test
takes several minutes to complete.)
Note: The unit supports a “hot remove” feature which permits you to connect or
disconnect twisted-pair or fiber cables without powering off the switch and without
disrupting the operation of the devices attached to the switch.
Verifying Port Status Check each connection by viewing the port indicators shown in the following table.
