HARDWARE INSTALLATION

The switch is considered as a “plug and play” network device and requires no special
setup procedures. Connect the power cord and cables correctly and you are ready to go.

Switch installation

1.

Put the switch on the appropriate location. When you install the switch, there are

two things needed to be considered:

Ÿ

Location: Your switch should be located in a place that is central to your

home/office space and allows all computers and networked devices connected to
your switch.

Ÿ

Power: Remember to locate your switch near electrical outlet.

2.

Power on the switch by connecting the power cord.

3.

Verify if the power (POWER) LED is on. If the POWER LED does not light up,
check the power cord and power outlet to verify its connection. If it still remains

unlit, please contact your dealer for support.

Ethernet Port Connection

Connect user machines, servers, another switch, hub, or any other devices to the Ethernet
ports on this switch with either straight through or crossover Ethernet cables.
