speed. This port can be used to configure the Switch without being connected to
the network.
Console (RJ45)
The RJ45 console port can be used to connect to the Command Line Interface
(CLI) of the Switch for configuration, management, and monitoring. This port uses
a special console cable (included in this package) with a DB9 interface to connect
the Switch to the serial port (COM) of the PC.
Side Panel Components
The side panels of this switch contain heat vents, fans, and rack-mounting screw holes. The heat vents are used to
dissipate internal heat and facilitate internal air circulation. Do not block these openings. Leave at least 4 inches of
space at the sides of the Switch for proper ventilation. Without proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system
components might overheat which could lead to system failure or even severely damaged components.
