2.2 Connections
2.2.1 Power
GSW-1005MS uses an external AC power adapter that supports wide voltage range input and is of a 'green' power
efficiency design. Plug the power adapter's DC plug into the GSW-1005MS prior to plugging the adapter into the AC
power source.

2.2.2 Fiber Connections
Refer to the graphic drawing above. GSW-1005MS utilizes an SFP module for fiber transmission. The fiber port has
an associated status LED (viewed from the top) to indicate the presence or absence of fiber link and will also flash
when there is Ethernet activity on the port. The SFP cage may insert any standard SFP module and be configured for
100M or 1000M operation. There is no 'lock out' mechanism, so any third party SFP, compliant with MSA, can be used
in GSW-1005MS.
2.2.2.1 Inserting a Bale Clasp SFP Module into a SFP cage
Step 1 Close the bale clasp upward before inserting the SFP module.
Step 2 Line up the SFP module with the port, and slide it into the cage.
2.2.2.2 Removing a Bale Clasp SFP Module
Step 1 Open the bale clasp on the SFP module. Press the clasp downward with your index finger.
Step 2 Grasp the SFP module between your thumb and index finger and carefully remove it from the SFP cage.
Within the management interfaces of the GSW-1005MS, the fiber port is numbered after the five electrical ports.
So, that port is seen as ports 6 by the internal switch and as viewed in management.
2.2.3 Reset
There is a recessed pushbutton switch used to reset GSW-1005MS or to return it to factory defaults. Pressing the
reset momentarily once will "warm boot" the switch. Pressing and holding the pushbutton switch for more than 3
seconds and then releasing will set the running configuration to the original factory default settings, including the
original factory default IP address followed by a "warm boot". If the IP address of the switch is unknown, it may be
necessary to do a factory default reset. The IP address will then be the known default.
2.2.4 LAN Connections
There are 5 shielded RJ-45 that provide LAN connections from GSW-1005MS Switch. These ports support Ethernet
speeds of 10M/100M/1000M automatically. Each of these five LAN ports has associated LEDs, located on the top,
which indicate the active link state and the detected speed of the interface. A green indicates a link and a speed of
10M or 100M, while amber color indicates a link and speed of 1000M.
