24 Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE Switch – User Manual Page 6 of 72

________________________________________________________________________

• TP Port and Cable Installation

In the switch, TP ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover, so both types of cable,

straight-through and crossed-over can be used. It means you do not have to tell from

them, just plug it.

Use Cat. 5 grade RJ-45 TP cable to connect to a TP port of the switch and the other

end is connected to a network-aware device such as a workstation or a server.

Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each RJ-45 port to be connected to a

10/100/1000Base-T device.

Now, you can start having the switch in operation.

• Power On

The switch supports 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply. The power supply will

automatically convert the local AC power source to DC power. It does not matter whether

any connection plugged into the switch or not when power on, even modules as well. Af-

ter the power is on, all LED indicators will light up and then all off except the power LED

still keeps on. This represents a reset of the system.

• Firmware Loading

After resetting, the boot loader will load the firmware into the memory. It will take

about 30 seconds, after that, the switch will flash all the LED once and automatically per-

forms self-test and is in ready state.

2-1-2. Cabling Requirements

To help ensure a successful installation and keep the network performance good,

please take a care on the cabling requirement. Cables with worse specification will render

the LAN to work poorly.

2-1-2-1. Cabling Requirements for TP Ports

For Fast Ethernet TP network connection

The grade of the cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100

meters.

Gigabit Ethernet TP network connection

The grade of the cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100

meters. Cat. 5e is recommended.
