Basic Instructions for the Use of This Product

  For inspection and/or repair, consult the retailer.

  Use commercial power supply from a wall socket, which is close and easily accessible to this 

Ethernet Switch.

  Unplug the power cord when installing or moving this Ethernet Switch.

  Unplug the power cord when cleaning this Ethernet Switch.

  Use this Ethernet Switch within the specifications. Deviation could lead to malfunction.

  Do not touch the twisted pair cable modular metal terminals which are connected to RJ45 

connectors (twisted pair ports) or the connectors, nor place them near electrically-charged 
objects. Static electricity could lead to equipment failure.

  Do not put the modular plug of the connected twisted pair cable on objects that can carry 

static charge, such as carpet. Do not place it in the proximity. Static electricity could lead to 
equipment failure.

  Do not put a strong shock, including dropping, to this Ethernet Switch. Deviation could lead 

to equipment failure.

  Before connecting a console cable to the console port, discharge static electricity, for example 

by touching metal appliance (do not discharge by touching this Ethernet Switch).

  Please use this Ethernet Switch in place where ambient temperature is from 0 to 50°C and, 

when the fan setting is set to Low2, or Min and it is used, use it in areas where the ambient 
temperatures range from 0 to 40°C.

  Do not store and/or use this Ethernet Switch in the environment with the characteristics listed below.
  (Store and/or use this Ethernet Switch in the environment in accordance with the 

specification.)

-  High humidity. Possible spilled liquid (water).
-  Dusty. Possible static charge (such as carpet).
-  Under direct sunlight.
-  Possible condensation. High/low temperature exceeding the specifications environment.
-  Strong vibration and/or strong shock.

  Failure to satisfy the conditions above may result in a fire, electric shock, equipment failure, 

and/or malfunction. Such events are not covered by the warranty.

*If it is used beyond the operating environmental temperatures, then the protective devices 

will start working and the Ethernet Switch power will be shut off.

  Do not block the ventilator of the Ethernet Switch.

  Blocked ventilator induces the heat accumulation inside, causing equipment failure and/or malfunction.
  If used at a temperature out of the operating temperature range, deviation could lead to malfunction.

 

Operation is not guaranteed if a module other than the optional SFP extension modules 
(PN54022/PN54024) is inserted into the SFP extension slot.

  For the latest information about compatible SFP extension modules, check our website.

  When using two Ethernet Switches, do not stack them. When you place them side by side, allow for a space 

of 20 mm or more between them. This space is not necessary if you use supplied connection brackets.

  When Ethernet Switches mounting to rack, leave a minimum of 20 mm space between them.

  When bundling and installing the cables which connect the  IEEE802.3bt compatible devices, 

it is recommended that the number of cables be 24 or less.

  If multiple cables are bundled and wired according to the cable specifications, that could lead 

to ignition, malfunctions, or misoperations.

  *Please contact the cable manufacturers for detailed installation conditions.

1. Please note that Panasonic shall not bear any liability whatsoever for any damages 

(this shall include, but is not limited to, lost earnings, lost opportunities, etc.) 

which were generated in relation to damages caused by operations and usage, 
or the inability to use this Ethernet Switch, whereby the customer does not follow 
this Installation Guide.

2. The contents described in this document may be changed without prior notice.
3. For any question, please contact the retailer where you purchased the product.
