Select a Location
Installation: Wall-mount, wall (in an enclosure or
industrial panel).
Identify a power source within 6 feet (1.8
meters).
Choose a dry area with ambient temperature
between -40 and 75ºC (-40 and 167ºF).
Be sure there is adequate airflow.

Connect to the Data Ports
Depending on the model, your switch can have
the following ports:
4 or 8 10/100BASE-TX Power over Ethernet (PoE)
ports
0, 2, or 4 100BASE-FX ports
2 Gigabit ports
10/100BASE-TX (PoE) and
10/100/1000BASE-TX Ports
Ports that support Power over Ethernet provide
power to networked devices such as IP Phones,
Wireless LAN Access Points, and IP security
cameras with a power budget of 240 watts
maximum.
2 100/1000BASE SFP Slots
SFP transceivers can be installed directly into
SFP slots. Ensure that the same type of
transceiver is used at both ends of the link and
that the correct type of fiber cable is used.
100BASE-FX Fiber Ports
Some models are equipped with fiber optic ports
accepting SC & ST connectors instead of SFP
slots. Select an appropriate cable type according
to your distance and transmission rate needs.
