Installation Guide
(this document)
Prepare to Install the Switch
Decide where you want to place the switch. Find a flat horizontal surface such as a
table, desk, or shelf. Make sure that the selected location is:
•
Not in direct sunlight or near a heater or heating vent.
•
Not cluttered or crowded. There must be at least 2 inches (5 cm) of clear space
on all sides of the switch.
•
Well ventilated (especially if it is in a closet).
Depending on the speed of your network devices, you need a Category 3 (10 Mbps)
or Category 5 (100 Mbps) Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors for each device you
want to connect to the switch. Each Ethernet cable has to be less than 328 feet (100
meters).
Install the Switch and Connect Devices
1.
Place the switch on a flat surface.
2.
For each device, insert one end of an Ethernet cable into the port in the device
and insert the other end into one of the Ethernet ports on the switch. Note: If
you have more than 16 devices to connect to this switch, connect them to a
switch and then connect that switch to this switch.

3.
Connect the power adapter cord into the back of the switch and then plug the
adapter into a power source (such as a wall socket or power strip).
4.
Check the LEDs to verify that the equipment is connected correctly.

The Power LED is lit.
•
Each RJ45 jack has a corresponding LED on the front panel. For each jack
that is connected to a powered device, the LED is lit, and it flashes when
activity occurs.
Note:
If any LED does not operate as indicated, go to the Troubleshooting section.
5.
Connect powered devices (PDs) to Port 1 – Port 8 of FS116P. These PoE
ports automatically activate when a compatible device is connected. The
FS116P does not provide power to PD devices that are not compatible with the
PoE Standard IEEE 802.3af. This feature allows you to mix legacy and
standards-based PoE devices on a network without damaging equipment. (See
the following table for descriptions of the LEDs.)
