POWER NOTICE:
1. The Managed Switch is a power-required device: it will not work unless it is
receiving power. If your networks must be active at all times, it is
recommended that the Switch be connected to a UPS (Uninterruptable Power
Supply) to prevent data loss or downtime.
2. In some areas, installing a surge suppression device may also help protect
your Managed Switch from being damaged by unregulated power surges or
current to either the Switch or the power adapter.
