Improper Network Topologies
It is important to make sure that have a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive cable length and too many repeaters (hubs) between end nodes. In addition, user should make sure that the network topology contains no data path loops. Between any two ends nodes, there should be only one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast storms that will severely impact the network performance.
Diagnosing LED Indicators
The switch can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist in identifying problems, which describes common problems may encounter and where can find possible solutions.
If the power indicator does turn on when the power cord is plugged in, it may have a problem with power outlet, or power cord. However, if the switch powers off after running for a while check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at power outlet. If the problem still cannot be solved, contact the local dealer for assistance.
