Introduction
The ENHGS-500X2 / ENHGS-800X4, a powerful and high-performance 5 /
8-Port 10/100/1000 Mbps gigabit Ethernet switch, is the best solution for
expanding your network environment. ENHGS-500X2 / ENHGS-800X4 5 /
8-Port gigabit switch is fully non-blocking architecture and compliant with all
kinds of network protocols. ENHGS-500X2 / ENHGS-800X4 supports every
switching port with wire-speed performance and delivers a dedicated
10/100/1000 Mbps connection to every attached client with no bandwidth
congestion issue.
Gigabit speed is 10 times quicker than 100Mbps fast Ethernet connection,
enabling you to save time transferring bandwidth-intensive music, video, photos,
graphic, and data files. Store-and-forward switching mode promises a low
latency plus eliminates all the network errors, including runt and CRC error
packets. ENHGS-500X2 / ENHGS-800X4 can provide a backbone link to your
switched workgroup or a server fat-pipe link. With flexible architecture, users can
easily implement a wired network without bandwidth limitations.
Before you start to install the switch, check the following contents in this
package：
One ENHGS-500X2 or ENHGS-800X4
One power adapter
User’s manual

Led Definition
Please refer to the following table for LED definition:
ENHGS-500X2 (5-Port switch)
ENHGS-800X4 (8-Port switch)
LED Status Operation
Power Steady Green Power is on
Off Power is off
Link/ACT Steady Green Port connected
Blinking Green The port is transmitting/receiving data

Stations connection
Connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one RJ-45
connector into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the other RJ-45 connector
into the station’s network adapter. Power on the switch and then system is ready.
For cable selection, refer to the following table.
Switches Connection
In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to connect another
switch with straight or crossover cable. As all the ports support auto MDI / MDI-X
function, using a straight cable to make a switch-to-switch connection is allowed.
For cable selection, refer to the following table：
Network Speed Cable Type Max. Length
10Mbps Cat. 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP 100 meters
100Mbps Cat. 5 UTP/STP 100 meters
1000Mbps Cat. 5 UTP/STP 100 meters
