Connecting to Power
12VDC DC Jack
Step 1: Connect the supplied AC to DC power adapter to the receptacle on
the back of the switch.
Step 2: Connect the power cord to the AC to DC power adapter and attach
the plug into a standard AC outlet with the appropriate AC voltage.
DC Terminal Block power input
Step 1: Connect the supplied DC power cord to the terminal block on the
back of the switch, and then plug it into a standard DC outlet with a
voltage range from 12 to 32 VDC. Turn on the DC power supply.
Step 2: Turn off the DC power supply if you want to shut down the switch.

Cabling
Step 1: First, ensure the power of the switch and end devices are turned off.
<Note> Always ensure that the power is off before any installation.
Step 2: Prepare cable with corresponding connectors for each type of port
in use.
Step 3: Consult Cable Specifications Table on previous page for cabling
requirements based on connectors and speed.
Step 4: Connect one end of the cable to the switch and the other end to a
desired device.
Step 5: Once the connections between two end devices are made
successfully, turn on the power and the switch is operational.
