2. INSTALLATION
To properly install the Managed Switch, please follow the procedures listed
below. Procedures covered in this chapter are described below in separate
sections.
Installation Requirements
Unpacking the Managed Switch
Installing the Managed Switch
Powering on the Managed Switch
Connecting the Managed Switch to the Network
2.1 Installation Requirements
Basic requirements for installation are as follows:
Environmental conditions
One power outlet
Proper ventilation
Proper isolation to electrical noise, radio, etc..
UTP cables should not run in the same duct with power and
phone line cables
Required SFP Transceivers or UTP cables
2.2 Checking the Package Contents
Unpack the package carefully and check the package contents. The package
should contain the following items:
Items included in standard package:
1 Managed Switch
1 Documentation CD
1 Power Adaptor
If any of the above items is found missing or damaged, please contact your local
sales representative for support or replacement.

2.3 Installing the Managed Switch
CAUTION
To prevent any damage or failure of the Managed Switch, please DO NOT
block the ventilation FAN holes.
Use the following guidelines when choosing a place to install the Switch:
Firm and steady flat surface.
The location of power outlet should not be far away from the device.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate
ventilation around the switch. Do not place heavy objects on the
Managed Switch.
Make sure water and moisture cannot enter the case.
Keep the cabling away from electrical noise.
2.4 Powering ON
The Managed Switch can be used with AC power adapter 100-240 VAC Input
and 12VDC output. The input connector is located on the left panel of the
Managed Switch. Before turning on the Managed Switch, please make sure that
network cables and power cables are securely connected.
Procedures:
1. Plug one end of the power adaptor into the power jack on the left
panel.
2. Plug the other end of the power adaptor into the power outlet. After
the power is on, the Power LED indicator should light in green.
Power Failure
In the event of power failure, unplug the power that is plugged into the switch at
the left of the device. When power is resumed, plug the power back to the switch.
Please note that the Managed Switch has no Power ON/OFF Button. Therefore,
the only way to power on or power off the switch is to connect or disconnect the
power adaptor.

2.5 Connecting the Switch to Network
Connect to Network
This Managed Switch has 5 or 6 10/100/1000Mbps RJ-45 ports on the front
panel. These ports can be inserted by 10/100/1000Base-T cables, connecting to
the end devices. The connection of the fiber port on the rear panel must be
matched, i.e. Transmitter to Receiver and vice versa.

3. OPERATION
The Managed Switch is Plug & Play compliant. Real-time operational status
can be monitored through a set of LED indicators located on the top panel. A
built-in management module provides users with flexible interfaces to configure,
control and monitor the complete system remotely.
