Hardware Installation
1.
Place the 16/24 port Switch on a smooth surface
2.
Connect the output of power cord to the AC-inlet of 16/24 port Switch.
3.
Connect other IEEE802.3 compatible network device(Hub ,Switch ,PC) to one port of the
16/24 port Switch using Category 3/4/5 UTP/STP cabling.
4.
Connect another IEEE802.3 compatible network device (Hub , Switch ,PC) to another port
of 16/24 port Switch by following the same process as described in Step3.
Notice
The cable distance between 16/24 port Switch and other IEEE802.3 compatible network device
should not exceed 100 meter.
Make sure the wiring is correct
It can be used Category 3/4/5 cable in 10 Mbps operation. To reliably operate your network at
100Mbps, you must use an Unshielded/Shielded Twisted-Pair (UTP/STP) Category 5 cable, or
better Data Grade cabling. While a Category 3 or 4 cable may initially seem to work, it will
soon cause data loss.
All kinds of IEEE802.3 compatible network device (Hub , Switch ,PC)can connect to
Switch by using straight-through wires or crossover wires because of Switch's auto MDIX
function.
