Copper Ports - Cable Installation
Please Note:
⇒
The RJ-45 ports on Alloy 16/24 Port Gigabit Switches support MDI/MDI-X auto-
crossover functionality. This enables use of either straight-through or crossover
UTP cable types; the RJ-45 ports will automatically be configured to suit the
characteristics of the device at the remote end of the link.
⇒
The RJ-45 ports on Alloy 16/24 Port Gigabit Switches support Nway auto-negotiation; the
ports will automatically be configured to be compatible with the speed and duplex settings
of the device at the remote end of the link.
⇒
The minimum grade of cable for use with the switch is Cat. 5 grade UTP or STP.
Higher grades of UTP/STP cable may also be used to connect to the copper RJ-45 ports.
1. Depress the clip on the RJ-45 connector and push into the RJ-45 port. Release
connector and ensure that the cable connector is securely locked into the RJ-45
port
2. Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each RJ-45 port to be connected.
• Power On
Please Note:
⇒
Alloy 16/24 Port Gigabit Switches use a 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply. The
power supply will automatically convert your local AC power source to DC power for use
by the switch.
1. Ensure that the power switch is turned off before connecting mains power
2. Connect the power cord supplied with the switch to your nearest mains outlet
3. Connect the other end of the power cord into the IEC power port on the switch
4. Lock the power cable into place using the power cable clamp mounted on the IEC power
port
5. Turn the switch on
6. When initial power is applied, all the LED indicators will light up for a brief period while
the system performs its startup tests. Once the initial tests (‘POST test’) have completed
all except the power LED should return to an off state.
• Firmware Loading
After power on, the boot-loader will load the switch firmware into the main operational
memory. This process will take about 30 seconds. Once completed, the switch will flash all
the LED’s once and then switch to a ready state.
