Chapter 2 Installation Preparation
2.1 Cautions
Similar to other electronic products, the semiconductor chip easily gets damaged if
you power on and off abruptly and frequently. To restart up the switch of 8/24, you have
to open the power on-off three or five seconds after the power is cut off.
Avoid severe collision or falling down from the height to protect the parts in the
switch.
Use correct outside ports to connect the switch of 8/24. Do not insert the Ethernet
plug into the console port (RJ45 8-line socket). Similarly, do not insert the console cable
into the console port (RJ45 8-line socket).
Note:
1) When you plug or dial out the power line, keep the power line horizontal with the
power socket.
2) When the lifetime of our products ends, handle them according to national laws and
regulations, or send these products to our company for collective processing.
2.2 Safety Advice
2.2.1 Safety Principles
Keep dustless and clean during or after the installation.
Put the cover at the safe place.
Put tools at the right place where they are not easily falling down.
Put on relatively tight clothes, fasten the tie or scarf well and roll up the sleeve,
avoiding stumbling the chassis.
Put on the protective glasses if the environment may cause damage to your
eyes.
Avoid incorrect operations that may cause damage to human or devices.
2.2.2 Safety Notices
The safety notices mentioned here means that improper operation may lead to body
damage.
Read the installation guide carefully before you operate the system.
Only professionals are allowed to install or replace the switch.
Please cut off the direct-current connection when you operate the hull or work
near the power supply.
The final configuration of products must comply with relative national laws and
regulations.
2.2.3 Safety Principles for Live Working
When you work under electricity, following the following principles:

- 6 -
Put off ornaments, such as ring, necklace, watch and bracelet, before you
operate under live working. When metal articles connect the power to the
ground, short circuit happens and components may be damaged.
Please cut off the direct-current connection when you operate the hull or work
near the power supply.
When the power is on, do not touch the power.
Correctly connect the device and the power socket.
Only professionals are allowed to operate and maintain the device.
Read the installation guide carefully before the system is powered on.
Note:
1) Check potential dangers, such as the humid floor, ungrounded extensible
power line and tatty power line.
2) Install the emergent on-off at the working room for turning off the power
when trouble happens.
3) Plug off the power line before installing or uninstalling the machine box or
working beside the power.
4) Do not work alone if potential dangers exist.
5) Cut off the power before checkout.
6) If trouble happens, take the following measures:
A. Cut off the system’s power.
B. Alarm.
C. Take proper measures to help persons who are hit by the disaster.
Artificial respiration is needed if necessary.
D. Seek for medical help, or judge the loss and seek for available help.
2.2.4 Electrostatic Discharge Damage Prevention
Electrostatic discharge may damage devices and circuits. Improper treatment may cause
the switch to malfunction completely or discontinuously.
Move or locate the devices according to the measures of electrostatic discharge
prevention, ensuring the machine box connects the ground. Another measure is to wear the
static-proof hand ring. If there is no hand ring, use the metal clip with the metal cable to clip the
unpainted metal part of the machine box. In this case, the static is discharged to the ground
through the metal cable of the clip. You can also discharge the static to the ground through
your body.
2.3 Requirements for Common Locations
This part describes the requirements for the installation locations.
2.3.1 Environment
8/24 switch adopts the wall-mounted installation mode. The switch has no fan, so an
environment with good ventilation is needed for the heat cooling of the switch.
For location planning and device locating, refer to section 2.3.2 “Location Configuration
Prevention”.

- 7 -
2.3.2 Location Configuration Prevention
The following preventive measures assist you to design the proper environment for the
switch.
Make sure that the workshop is well-ventilated, the heat of TX devices is
well-discharged and sufficient air circulation is provided for device cooling.
Put the chassis at the place where cool air can blow off the heat inside the
chassis. Make sure the chassis is sealed because the opened chassis will
reverse the cool air flow.
2.3.3 Cabinet Configuration
The following content assists you to make a proper cabinet configuration:
Each device on the cabinet gives off heat when it runs. Therefore, the sealed
cabinet must have the heat-discharge outlet and the cooling fan. Do not put the
devices too close, avoiding bad ventilation.
When you install the chassis at the open cabinet, prevent the frame of the
cabinet from blocking the airway of the chassis.
Ensure that nice ventilation is provided for the devices installed at the bottom of
the cabinet.
The clapboard separates exhaust gas and inflow air, and boost the cool air to
flow in the chassis. The best location of the clapboard is decided by the air flow
mode in the chassis, which can be obtained through different location tests.
2.3.4 Power Requirements
Make sure that the power supply has nice grounding and the power at the input side of the
switch is reliable. The voltage control can be installed if necessary. At least a 240 V, 10A fuse
or a breaker is provided in the phase line if you prepare the short-circuit prevention measures
for a building.
Caution:
If the power supply system does not have good grounding, or the input power disturbs too
much and excessive pulses exist, the error code rate of communication devices increases and
even the hardware system will be damaged.
2.4 Installation Tools and Device
The tools and devices to install the 8/24 switch are not provided by the 8/24 switch. You
yourself need to prepare them. The following are the tools and devices needed for the typical
installation of the 8/24 switch:
Screwdriver
Static armguard
Bolt
Ethernet cable
Other Ethernet terminal devices
Control terminal

Chapter 3 Installing the 8/24 Switch
Caution:
Only professionals are allowed to install or replace the devices of the switch.
3.1 Installation Procedures of 8/24 switch
3.2 Installing the Chassis of 8/24 switch
The chassis of the switch can be put on the desk or fixed to the cabinet. Your network
installation requirements can be met if you conduct the operations according to the following
procedure. It can be described in the following two parts:
Installing the Chassis on the Desk
Installing the Chassis on the Cabinet
3.2.1 Installing the Chassis on the Desk
The 8/24 switch can be directly put on the smooth and safe desk.
Note:
Do not put things weighing 4.5 kg or over 4.5 kg on the top of the switch.
3.2.2 Installing the Chassis on the Cabinet
The chassis of the switch is fixed to the cabinet through the fixing mouth. When operation

Figure 3-2 Installing the switch on the cabinet
3.3 Connecting the Port
3.3.1 Connecting the Console Port
The switch of 8/24 switch has a Console port. The rate of the console port is a value of
1200bps—115200bps. It has a standard RJ45 plug. After you connect the console port to the
serial port of PC through a console cable, you can configure and monitor the switch of 8/24 by
running a terminal emulation software, such as super Windows terminal. The cable is provided
according to the host. The communication parameters of the terminal serial port can be set to
a rate of 9600bps, eight data bits, one stop bit, no sum check bit and traffic control.
The RJ45 connector of the console port is shown in the following figure. The RJ45 plug
corresponds to the RJ45 socket, whose pins can be aligned from left to right with the value
from 1 to 8.

Note:
Because the console port of 8/24 switch bears no flow control, you need to set
Data flow control to none when using a superior terminal to manage 8/24 switch
configurations, or the single-pass problem will arise from the superior terminal.
The cable is used to connect the console port of the 8/24 switch and the outside
console terminal device. One end of the cable is a 8-pin RJ45 plug and the other
end is a 25-hole plug (DB25) and a 9-hole plug (DB9). The RJ45 plug is put into
the socket of the console port on the 8/24 switch. DB25 or DB9 is applied
according to the requirement of the terminal serial port. The inner line connection
in the cable is shown in Figure 3-5.

- 11 -
Figure 3-5 Cable connection at the console port
3.3.2 Connecting the SFP Ports
8/24 switch provides 2/4 gigabit SFP optical ports. Each port corresponds to one indicator
respectively, which is used for indicating the port Link/ACT state. When the indicator is always
on, the link is normal; when it flickers, the data receives and forwards. To use the optical port,
you need connect it to the SFP optical module, and then to other Ethernet terminal devices
through an optical fiber.
Figure 3-6 Connecting the SFP ports and other Ethernet terminals
3.3.3 Connecting Gigabit Ethernet TX Ports
The 8/24 switch has 8/24 10/100/1000 Base-TX ports. Each port has one indicator, which
indicates the state of Link/ACT. If the indicator is always on, the port is linked up; if the indicator
flickers, the data is transmitted on the port. The numbering order of the pins in the UTP port is
the same as the console port.

- 12 -
Figure 3-7 RJ-45 connector of the console port
Because 8/24 switch 10/100/1000 Base-TX ports of 8/24 support the MDI/MDIX
auto-identification of the cable, 8/24 can adopt five classes of direct-through/cross network
cables when it connects other Ethernet terminals.
