INTRODUCTION
Legrand offers an 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch (see Figure 1)
which comes with eight independent 1000Mbps ports. The
DA1008 switch is designed to easily install in an On-Q style
enclosure and its eight ports provides adequate capacity for
most homes. Each port can transmit at speeds up to 1000Mbps
in full duplex mode. The switch features a 16Gbps non-blocking
switch fabric as well as an 8K MAC Address table. It supports
802.3x full duplex flow control and offers wire-speed packet
transfer performance without packet loss. The Gigabit ports with
9K jumbo packet support can handle extremely large amounts of
data transmission in a secure topology linking to a backbone of
high-power servers. The switch is powered by a 12VDC, 18W
power supply (P/N PW7760, purchased separately).

DESCRIPTION
The Legrand 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch has a power LED which lights green to indicate power is
supplied, and two green
LEDs per port. The “1000” LED lights to indicate that port is running at 1000Mbps. If
it is off, it indicates that port is running at 10Mbps or 100Mbps
. The “LNK/ACT” LED lights to indicate a
connection to an active device, and blinks when transmitting or receiving data. The switch complies with IEEE
802.3/3u/3ab/3x and 3az standards for Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet, full-duplex flow control and
Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). The switch will operate properly in humidity up to 90% and at a temperature
of 0-50 degrees C. It is a two bay module that comes with a two bay bracket (P/N 364819-01) for mounting in
an On-Q style enclosure.

INSTALLATION
A. Attach the 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch to the supplied bracket using the pushpins in each corner and
position the switch in the enclosure, planning for wire management and location of additional modules.
B. Align two stationary tabs on the bracket with slots on the back of the enclosure.
C. Insert tabs by angling module away from the back of the enclosure and sliding forward.
D. Rotate the module and insert the built in locking tab/s on the module into the corresponding hole/s on the
back of the enclosure, pushing in until it snaps into place.
E. Pull lightly on the module to assure it is properly locked in place.
F. Plug the DC power supply into the switch and an appropriate AC outlet inside the Enclosure.
G.
Verify that the Power LED is illuminated. If it isn’t illuminated, then check the connections, power supply
and 110 VAC source. If still not illuminated, contact Legrand Technical Support at 1-800-321-2343.
H. The DA1008 8-Port Gigabit
Ethernet Switch is considered a “plug and play” network device and requires
no special setup. Since the switch employs auto-
crossover technology, Ethernet cables that are “straight-
through” or “crossover” design will work for all applications.
I.
As eac
h active device is plugged into a switch port, verify that the “LNK/ACT” LED is illuminated for that
port. The “1000” LED may also be lit if the device attached to the port is running at 1000Mbps. If the
“LNK/ACT” LED does not light for an active device, check its Ethernet cable or the device itself.
The 8-Port Gigabit Switch may be used by itself to create a large local PC network or with a router to expand
the router’s port count (see Figure 2).
