Physical Installation
The AMS-1816P can easily be installed in a standard 19” rack. Two mounting ears
are included for installing and stabilizing the switch. When attaching the mounting
ears and installing the switch in a rack, please refer to the following illustration:
Rack-Mounting the AMS-1816P

Use the included screws to attach the mounting ears to each side
of the switch.

Mount the switch in the rack with the LEDs facing outwards. Be sure the
switch is level and properly secured in the rack.
Desktop Setup
For use as a desktop device, position and apply the included rubber feet to the
bottom of the AMS-1816P.

Connecting Ethernet and Power
Ethernet and Power Connections
Use one of the 18 Ethernet ports to connect the AMS-1816P to any Ethernet
enabled device, including control systems, routers, or other switches.
No crossover cable is necessary.
The AMS-1816P supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, 10/100 Mbps half/
full-duplex mode, and 1000 Mbps full-duplex mode. Ports 17 and 18 consist
of two Gigabit RJ-45 uplink ports and 2 shared SFP combo ports; use only
one of the Ethernet port or fiber port with the same-numbered ports at
a time.
Use the included power cable to connect the AMS-1816P to a surge-
protected outlet. The AC input socket is on the rear panel. The built-in
power supply supports 100~240VAC at 50/60Hz.
Network Cabling
Luxul recommends at least Cat-5e unshielded twisted pair (CAT5e UTP)
cabling. To ensure best performance and stable data transmission at 1000
Mbps, use Category-6 unshielded twisted pair (CAT6 UTP).
c CAUTION: Multiple Uplink channels can create loops, resulting in
network failure. Ensure only one Uplink channel exists
between switches or between the AMS-1816P and a router.
n NOTE: When powering up, the port LEDs may take a moment to
initialize. This is normal as the AMS-1816P initialization and
startup sequence completes.
n NOTE: The AMS-1816P has an internal 185W power supply. Do not
exceed 185W combined consumption of all PoE devices.
