Getting started
Before installing your LCM8/LCM16 switch, refer to the following lists to ensure you have all
items that shipped with the switch, as well as other items necessary for proper installation.
Supplied with the LCM8/LCM16 switch
• Local country power cord
• Rack mounting brackets
• LCM8/LCM16 Switch Quick Installation Guide
Additional items needed
• One CO cable per target device.
• One UTP patch cable per CO cable (4-pair UTP, up to 30 meters)
• UTP patch cable(s) for network connectivity (4-pair UTP, up to 30 meters)
Setting up your network
The LCM8/LCM16 switching system uses IP addresses to uniquely identify the switch and target
devices. The LCM8/LCM16 switch supports both Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
and static IP addressing. Make sure that an IP address is reserved for each switch and that each IP
address remains static while the switches are connected to the network.
Rack mounting an LCM8/LCM16 switch
Using the supplied rack mounting kit, you can mount the LCM8/LCM16 switch directly into an
Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standard rack. LCM8/LCM16 switches can be rack-mounted
vertically or in a 1U configuration.
