POWERING ON
The SMC8508T switch is powered by connecting its AC-DC power adapter to an
AC power outlet. Before plugging in the AC-DC adapter, verify that the AC power
outlet can provide 100 to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz.
To connect the switch to a power source:
1. Plug the AC-DC power adapter's DC jack into the socket on the switch’s rear
panel, and then plug the adapter into an appropriate AC electrical outlet.

2. Check the LED indicators on the switch front panel as the unit is powered on
to verify that power is being received. If not, recheck the AC-DC power
adapter connections at the AC supply source and back panel power input
connector.
