3.2.2 Connect to the computers or a LAN

You can use Ethernet cable to connect computers directly to the switch ports.

You can also connect hubs/switches to the switch ports by Ethernet cables.

You can use either the crossover or straight-through Ethernet cable to connect

computers, hubs, or switches.

Use a twisted-pair Category 5 Ethernet cable to connect the

1000BASE-T port. Otherwise, the link speed can not reach

1Gbps.

3.2.3 Attach the RPS module

Connect your RPS module to the RPS jack and make sure the other end of the

RPS is connected to the power cord. Connect to the power cord to a grounded

power outlet.

3.2.4 Attach the power adapter

Connect the AC power cord to the POWER receptacle on the back of the switch

and plug the other end of the power cord into a wall outlet or a power strip.
Check the front LED indicators with the description in Table 4. If the LEDs light

up as described, the switch hardware is working properly.
