FCC Warning
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the regulations for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with this user’s guide, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference, in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at
his own expense.
CE Mark Warning
This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment,
this product may cause radio interference, in which
case the user may be required to take adequate
measures.
VCCI Mark Warning

ABOUT THIS GUIDE
Congratulations on your purchase of the 5-Port
10/100 SOHO Switch. This device integrates
100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet
network capabilities in a highly flexible desktop
package.
Purpose
This manual discusses how to install your 5-Port
10/100 SOHO Switch.
Terms/Usage
In this guide, the term “Switch”(first letter upper
case) refers to your 5-Port 10/100 SOHO Switch,
and ”switch”(first letter lower case) refers to other
Ethernet switches.
EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
This section identifies all the major external
components of the hub. Both the front and rear
panels are shown, followed by a description of each
panel feature. The indicator panel is described in
detail in the next chapter.
Front Panel
The figure below shows the front panels of the
switch.

PWR:
This indicator lights green when the hub is receiving
power, otherwise, it is off.
Link/Act:
This indicator light green when the port is connected
to a station, if the indicator blinking will be
transmitting or received data on the network.
100M:
If this indicator light green, mean this port is
connected to a 100M Fast Ethernet station.
Otherwise, this indicators reminds off, mean this
port is connected to a 10M Ethernet station.
FDX/COL:
This LED indicator light green when a respective
port is in full duplex (FDX) mode. Otherwise, it is
blinking when collisions are occurring on the
respectiveport.
Rear Panel
DC Power Jack:
Power is supplied through an external AC power
adapter. Check the technical specification section
for information about the AC power input voltage.
Since the switch does not include a power switch,
plugging its power adapter into a power outlet will
immediately power it on.

5
MDI-X Jacks:
Use these jacks to connect stations to the hub. These
are MDI-X (Medium-Dependent Interface, Cross-
wired) jacks, which mean, you can use ordinary
straight-through twisted-pair cables to connect user
machines and servers to the hub through them. If
you need to connect another device with an MDI-X
jack, such as another hub or an Ethernet switch, you
should use a crossover cable, or make the connection
using the MDI-X jack (described below). For more
information about crossover connections.
MDI-II Jack:
Use this jack to connect stations to the hub. This is
MDI-II (Medium-dependent Interface, straight-
wired) jack, which means you can connect the hub
to a device with a MDI-X port using an ordinary
straight-through cable, making a crossover cable
unnecessary.
