Quick Installation Guide
5-Port 10/100 Mbps
Green Switch
Model# ASW305
Ver. 1A

This Quick Installation Guide tells you how to install your 5-Port 10/100
Mbps Green Switch, and how to connect it to your Fast Ethernet network.
The 5-Port 10/100 Mbps Green Switch is designed for energy saving,
easy installation and high performance in an environment where network
traffic and the number of users increase continuously. You can add other
Ethernet devices like computers, IP cameras, and Network Attached
Storage (NAS) onto your network quickly and easily. The Green EEE
(Energy Efficient Ethernet) technology of ASW305 automatically reduces
the power usage when a connected port is detected inactive (idle or
cable-unplugged) and intelligently allocates less power for a port that
connects with an Ethernet cable shorter than 20m (66 ft)*.

Section 1

Connecting the Switch
Note: Operating Environment
This switch must be installed and operated within the limits of specified
operating temperature (32~1310F) and humidity (10~90%
Non-condensing). Do not place objects on top of the unit. Do not obstruct
any vents at the sides of the unit. Do not position the unit near any
heating source such as heater, radiator, or direct exposure to sun.
Prevent entering of water and moisture into the unit. If necessary, use
dehumidifier to reduce humidity.
Step 1 Connecting to network devices
The RJ-45 ports on the switch support Auto-MDI/MDI-X function which
allows using straight-through or cross-over type cables to connect this
switch to workstation or hub.
Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the rear panel,
and connect the other end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the
network device. Follow the same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports
of the switch. The UTP network cables must be two pairs Category 5 for
100Mbps data transmission; two pairs Category 3, 4 or 5 standards for
10Mbps data transmission. Maximum length, using UTP cable, between
the switch and connected device is 100 meters (300ft).
Step 2 Connecting the power
Connect the output end of the power adapter to the power connector on
the right panel of the switch. Connect the power adapter to the power
outlet. The green Power LED on the front panel should be lit. Once the
network cable is connected to both ends in Step 1 and the attached
network device is powered on, the green LNK/ACT LED should be lit.
Section 2

Troubleshooting
1. Power LED is not lit
•Check if the power adapter is properly connected to the power outlet.
Make sure the power jack is firmly plugged into the power socket of
the switch.
2. Link/Activity is not lit when connect to 10/100 Mbps device
•Check the power switch of the network device attached to the switch;
make sure it is turned ON.
•Check the network cable; make sure it is properly connected to the
switch and the network device.
•Check the network cable; make sure the UTP cables comply with the
specifications described in Section 2.
