Power
Notice
1. The device is a power-required device, it
means, it will not work till it is powered. If
your networks should active all the time,
please consider using UPS (Uninterrupted
Power Supply) for your device. It will
prevent you from network data loss or
network downtime.
2. In some area, installing a surge suppression
device may also help to protect your Switch
from being damaged by unregulated surge
or current to the Switch or the power
adapter.
Step 4: Connect your Switch to network devices.
A. Connect one end of a standard network cable to
the 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports on the rear panel
of the Switch.
B. Connect the other end of the cable to the
network devices such as printer servers,
workstations or routers…etc.
Step 5: Supply power to the Switch.
A. Connect one end of the power cable to the
Switch.
B. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to a
standard wall outlet.
When the Switch receives power, the Power LED should
remain solid Green.
