CONNECTING THE UNIT
For 10Base-T ports, plug a Category 3 (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. For
100/1000Base-T ports, plug a Category 5e (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. Connect
the other end to the far end station. Verify that the LNK LEDs are ON once the connection has been
completed. To connect any other port to another Switch or Repeater, use a standard Cat5e straight through
or crossover cable.
Warning: Creating a port to port connection on the same switch (i.e. loop) is an illegal operation and will
create a broadcast storm which will crash the network!
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Make sure the (Power LED) is ON.
2. Make sure you are supplying sufficient current for the version chosen. Note: The inrush current will
exceed the steady state current by ~ 2X.
3. Verify that Link LEDs are ON for both ports.
4. Verify cabling used between stations.
5. Verify that cabling is Category 3 or greater for 10Mbit Operation.
