D-Link Switch User Manual About This Guide This guide provides instructions to install the D-Link DGS-1026MP 26-Port Unmanaged PoE Gigabit Switch. Terms/Usage In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter capitalized) refers to the DGS-1026MP, and “switch” (first letter lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches. Some technologies refer to the terms “switch”, “bridge” and “switching hubs” interchangeably, and all are commonly accepted for Ethernet switches.
D-Link Switch User Manual Product Introduction The DGS-1026MP is an unmanaged switch with 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and 2 Gigabit combo uplink ports. The first 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports of the DGS-1026MP support IEEE 802.3af/at Power over Ethernet (PoE) and are capable of supplying up to 30 watts of power per port. The DGS-1026MP is easy to install and requires no configuration.
D-Link Switch User Manual Item Description Kensington Security Lock The DGS-1026MP adds additional value by providing users with a simple, reliable, builtin security solution to prevent theft in the form of a Kensington Security Slot on the rear panel of the Switch. SWITCH GND This is used to connect the switch to ground. Power Cord Retainer Slot This is used for securing the power cord retainer to the switch. DC Power Jack This is used to connect the power cable to the switch.
D-Link Switch User Manual Hardware Installation This chapter provides more detailed instructions for grounding and installing the DGS-1026MP. CAUTION: Ensure the power cable is disconnected before installing the switch. Installation Precautions For safe installation and operation of the Switch, it is recommended to: • • • • • Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the power adapter.
D-Link Switch User Manual Attaching the Rubber Feet The DGS-1026MP comes with a strip of four adhesive rubber pads that can be placed on the bottom of the device to prevent the Switch from damaging the surface it is placed on. This allows the Switch to be placed virtually anywhere. To attach the rubber pads, simply remove them from the adhesive strip and stick one pad on each corner on the bottom panel of the Switch.
D-Link Switch User Manual Powering on the Switch To power on the Switch, connect the provided power cable to the power socket on the back of the Switch, and connect the adapter side of the cord to a suitable power source. After the Switch has been powered on, the LED indicators will blink briefly while the system initializes. As a precaution, in the event of a power failure it is recommended to unplug the Switch. When power has been restored, plug the Switch back in.
D-Link Switch User Manual Connect to a Hub or Switch Use a straight or crossover cable to connect the Switch to another switch or hub. Figure 9 – Connecting the Switch to another switch or hub Connect to a Network Backbone or Server Use any port on the device to connect the Switch to a network backbone or network server. When linking to a 1000BASE-T device, the port operates in full-duplex mode.
D-Link Switch User Manual Understanding the Switch’s Features Power Over Ethernet (PoE) The DGS-1026MP supports many PoE features to guarantee the safety and stability of the Switch and the connected powered devices. PoE Power Budget: The total PoE budget of the DGS-1026MP is limited to a maximum of 370 watts to both protect the Switch and to stabilize the power being transmitted to the PoE-powered devices.
