Attach the Switch to a Wall

To attach the switch to a wall, you need the wall-mount screws that are supplied 
with the switch.

 

¾

To attach the switch to a wall:

1.  Locate the two mount holes on the bottom panel of the switch.
2.  Mark and drill two mounting holes in the wall where you want to mount the 

switch.
The two mounting holes must be at a precise distance of 4.27 in. (108.4 mm) 
from each other.

3.  Insert the supplied anchors into the wall and tighten the supplied screws with 

a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver.
Leave about 0.125 in. (4 mm) of each screw protruding from the wall so that 
you can insert the screws into the holes on the bottom panel.

Install the Switch in a Rack

To install the switch in a rack, you need the rack-mount brackets and screws that 
are supplied with the switch.

 

¾

To install the switch in a rack:

1.  Attach the supplied mounting brackets to the side of the switch.

Insert the screws provided in the product package through each bracket and 
into the bracket mounting holes in the switch.

2.  Tighten the screws with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver to secure each bracket.
3.  Align the mounting holes in the brackets with the holes in the rack, and insert 

two pan-head screws with nylon washers through each bracket and into the 
rack.

4.  Tighten the screws with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver to secure mounting 

brackets to the rack.

PoE Troubleshooting

Here are some tips for correcting PoE problems that might occur:

•  Make sure that the PoE Max LED is off. If the PoE Max LED is solid amber, 

disconnect one or more PoE devices to prevent PoE oversubscription. Start by 
disconnecting the device from the highest-numbered port.

•  Make sure that the Ethernet cables are plugged in correctly. For each 

powered device (PD) that is connected to the switch, the corresponding right 
port LED on the switch lights solid green. If the right port LED lights solid 
amber, a PoE fault occurred and PoE halted because of one of the conditions 
that are listed in the following table.

PoE Fault Condition

Possible Solution

A PoE-related short circuit occurred on the port.

 
The problem is most likely with the 
attached PD. Check the condition 
of the PD or restart the PD by 
disconnecting and reconnecting the 
PD.

The PoE power demand of the PD exceeded the 
maximum level that the switch permits, which is 30.9W.

The PoE current on the port exceeded the classification 
limit of the PD.

The PoE voltage of the port is outside the range that 
the switch permits.

Restart the switch to see if the 
condition resolves itself.

Cables and Speeds

connections and the speeds that these cables can support, up to 328 feet (100
