Console Port
The console port is a RJ-45 type, RS-232 serial port connector. It is an interface for connecting a terminal directly. Through
the console port, it provides rich diagnostic information including IP Address setting, factory reset, port management, link
status and system setting. Users can use the attached RS-232 cable in the package and connect to the console port on the
device. After the connection, users can run any terminal emulation program (Hyper Terminal, ProComm Plus, Telix,
Winterm and so on) to enter the startup screen of the device.

Power Notice:
The device is a power-required device, which means it will not work till it is powered. If your networks
should be 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. In some areas, installing a surge
suppression device may also help to protect your Managed Switch from being damaged by unregulated
surge or current to the Switch or the power adapter.
