Connection of the S2Konnect
Unmanaged Switch
This chapter describes the physical connection of the S2Konnect S-8180T Unmanaged Switches
to other Switches as well as to a network system.
Transmission Distances
All ports of the switch are supporting 10/100/1000BaseT connections on Copper Category 5
unshielded twisted pair cable with a maximum distance of 100m.
Connection to the Network
You can connect the S2Konnect S-8180T Unmanaged Switches to a network station or even
uplink them to a network server. Thus, by connecting smaller network segments through a switch
you can expand the transmission range of your overall network.
In order to connect the S2Konnect Unmanaged Switch to a network, proceed as follows:
1. If possible, disconnect the S2Konnect Unmanaged Switch from the power supply.
2. At one end of the cable connect the RJ-45 connector to the port on the S2Konnect
Unmanaged Switch (see figure 3).
3. At the other end of the cable connect the connector to the port on the network device.
The port type (e.g. 1000Base-T) on the network device and that in the S2Konnect
Unmanaged Switch must be identical.
4. Reconnect the S2Konnect Unmanaged Switch to the power supply.
5. Turn on the network device and the S2Konnect Unmanaged Switch.
6. Check the SPD/LNK/ACT LED belonging to the port you plugged in the plug to find out if
the cable is connected correctly.
If the LED is on, the connection is established and active. Otherwise you have to check
the S2Konnect Unmanaged Switch more closely (for details, refer to section
“LED Displays” on page 13).
