2. Installation
This chapter describes how to install and connect your Digisol Systems Limited Switch.
Read the following topics and perform the procedures in the correct order. Incorrect
installation may cause damage to the product.
2.1. Mounting the Switch
There are two ways to physically set up the switch.
• Place the switch on a flat surface. To place the switch on a desktop, install the
four rubber feet (included) on the bottom of the switch.
• Mount the switch in a standard rack (1 rack unit high).
2.1.1. Placement Tips
• Ambient Temperature—To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it
in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C).
• Air Flow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the switch.
• Mechanical Loading—Be sure that the switch is level and stable to avoid any
hazardous conditions.
• Circuit Overloading—Adding the switch to the power outlet must not overload
that circuit.
Follow these guidelines to install the switch securely.
1. Put the switch in a stable place such as a desktop, to avoid it falling.
2. Ensure the switch works in the proper AC input range and matches the voltage
labeled.
3. Ensure there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the
switch.
4. Ensure the switch’s location can support the weight of the switch and its
accessories.

2.1.2. Rack Mounting
You can mount the switch in any standard size, 19-inch (about 48 cm) wide rack. The
switch requires 1 rack unit (RU) of space, which is 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) high.
For stability, load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest
devices on the bottom. A top-heavy rack is likely to be unstable and may tip
over.
When mounting smaller switch products into a standard 19-inch rack, a pair
of extension brackets (sometimes referred to as ears) are needed to adapt
the switch to the rack size.
These extension brackets are mounted on the switch using the screws
provided in the kit, and have two holes that are used to then screw the
switch into the rack.
An example of one type of these extension brackets is shown in the following
figure.
A common problem that occurs during rack mounting is the distance between
the screw holes on the rack. Some racks are made with a uniform distance
between all of the holes, and others have the holes organized into groups
(see photo on the next page for an example).
When organized into groups, the switch must be placed in the rack so that
the holes in the extension brackets line up correctly.
1. Align the mounting brackets with the mounting holes on the switch’s side panels
and secure the brackets with the screws provided.

3. Getting Started
This section provides an introduction to the web-based configuration utility, and
covers the following topics:
• Powering on the device
• Connecting to the network
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) considerations
• Starting the web-based configuration utility
3.1. Power
3.1.1. Connecting to Power
Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring a
switch.
Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not use
any other power components except those specifically designated for the
switch.
Disconnect the power cord before installation or cable wiring.
The switch is powered by the AC 100-240 V 50/60Hz internal high-performance power
