• TP Port and Cable Installation
⇒ In this switch, each TP port supports MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover, so both types
of cable, straight-through (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 1, 2, 3, 6 in
10/100 M TP; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 in Gigabit TP) and
crossover (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 3, 6, 1, 2) can be used.
Either type can be used successfully, and can be mixed on different switch ports.
⇒ Use Cat. 5e or better grade RJ-45 TP cable to connect to a TP port of the switch,
and the other end of the cable is then connected to a network-aware device
such as a workstation or a server.
⇒ Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each RJ-45 port to be connected to a
Gigabit 10/100/1000 TP device.
The switch is now ready to operate.
• Power On
The switch supports power sourced from a 100-240 V AC, 50-60 Hz power
supply. The power supply will automatically convert the local AC power source to
DC power. It does not matter whether any connection is plugged into the switch or
not when power on, even the SFP modules as well. After the power is on, all LED
indicators will light up immediately and then all will turn off except the power LED,
which remains on. This represents a reset of the system.
• Firmware Loading
After resetting, the bootloader will load the firmware into the memory. It will
take about 30 seconds; after that, the switch will flash all the LEDs once and
automatically performs a self-test and is then in a ready state.
2-1-2. Cabling Requirements
To help ensure a successful installation and keep the network performance
as high as possible, please observe the cabling requirements. Cables with a lower
specification will cause the LAN not to perform as specified.
