Installation Guide (this document)
Prepare to Install the Switch
Place the switch on a flat horizontal surface such as a table,
desk, or shelf. You can use wall-mounting screws (not provided)
to hang the switch in an open space on a wall.
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 air space on all sides of the switch.
•
Well ventilated (especially if it is in a closet).
You need a Category 3 (10 Mbps) or Category 5 (100 Mbps)
Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors for each device you
connect to the switch. Each Ethernet cable must be less than
328 feet (100 meters).
Install the Switch and Connect Devices
1.
Place the switch on a flat surface or hook it onto the screws.
2.
For each device, insert one end of an Ethernet cable into a
port on the switch and the other end into the network port
on the device.
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:
•
Verify that the Power LED is lit.
•
For each jack that is connected to a powered device,
check that the Link LED is lit and it flashes when activity
occurs.
Note:
If any LED does not operate as indicated, go to the
Troubleshooting section.
