Note:
While connectingEther-FSH2400N to other hub/switch, you don’t have to use a crossover cable
for connection, since Ether-FSH2400N performs auto-crossing over by its Auto-MDI,
Auto-MDI-X function. Simply use the straight-through cable for all types of 100BASE-TX
connections, either to a PC or to a networking device such as other hub or switch.
The table below describes when to use straight-through or crossover cable:

Connecting to Power
Ether-FSH2400N Fast Ethernet Switch features a universal auto-select power supply unit, which
allows a power connection to a wide range of input voltages from 90 to 240V
AC
@ 50 ~ 60Hz.
To establish its power connection, simply plug the female end of the power cord into the power
connector on the rear of the switch and the male end of the power cord into a suitable power outlet.
Once you have correctly plugged in the power, you can then turn on the Power Switch to activate the
