Completing The Installation
When the switch has been installed as specified above, then the
unit can be configured as detailed below:-
1. Connect the AC power cable to the switch. The green Power
LED on the front panel of the switch should light.
2. Connect the Cat. 5/5e twisted pair cables from the network
partner devices to the RJ-45 ports on the switch. When a
network connection is obtained, the green LK/ACT LED
associated with the port will light.
3. Connect the fibre link to the partner device (media converter,
fibre NIC card or fibre switch etc). Verify that the green LK/ACT
LED for the fibre port is lit which indicates that the optical link is
valid.
4. If advanced modes such as port configuration or port-based
VLANs are needed, then use the console port to configure the
switch. See the console port instructions on page 7.
5. If legacy devices that do not support auto-negotiation are
connected to the RJ-45 ports, then it may be necessary to
program the switch to match the speed and duplex modes of
the partner devices. See page 9
6. Note that auto-negotiation can take up to 30 seconds to
complete depending on the partner device.
