Ethernet 1 

The Switch’s first RJ-45 port supports 

the  IEEE  802.3af  Power-over-Ethernet  (PoE)  PD 
standard that enables DC power to be supplied 
to  the  Switch  using  wires  in  the  connecting 
twisted-pair cable. Any 802.3af-compliant Power 
over  Ethernet  device  attached  to  the  port  can 
directly  supply  power  to  the  Switch  over  the 
twisted-pair  cable  without  requiring  its  own 
separate power source. 

To connect a device to a port, you will need to 
use Category 5e (or better) network cable.

Ethernet 1-5 or 1-8 

These RJ-45 ports support 

network speeds of either 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 
1000Mbps and can operate in half and full-duplex 
modes.  Auto-sensing  technology  enables  each 
port  to  automatically  detect  the  speed  of  the 
device connected to it and adjust its speed and 
duplex accordingly.

Side Panels

The Reset button and Power port are located on the right 
side panel of the Switch.

Right Side Panel

Reset Button 

The Reset button can be used to 

reset or reboot the Switch. 

Reboot 

If the button is pressed for less than 

10 seconds, the Switch will reboot. 

Restore  Factory  Defaults 

If  the  button 

is  pressed  for  longer  than  10  seconds,  the 
Switch’s  settings  will  be  restored  to  the 
factory defaults.

NOTE:

 The Switch can only be configured using 

the web-based utility. If you cannot access the 
web-based  utility  because  of  configuration 
changes you’ve made, you can reset the Switch 
to the factory defauts.   

Power 

The  Power  port  is  where  you  will 

connect the AC power.

The  security  slot  is  located  on  the  left  side  panel  of  the 
Switch.

Left Side Panel

Securty Slot 

The security slot can be utilized 

to attach a lock to the Switch.
