This Equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
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 the instruction manual, 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.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received; including interference that may cause
undesired operation.

Introduction
The GSW-0507/GSW-0807 device are powerful,
high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch, with all ports
capable of 10, 100 or 1000Mbps auto-negotiation operation
(NWay), which means the switch could automatically
negotiate with the connected partners on the network speed
and duplex mode. It is ideal for micro-segmenting large
networks into smaller, connected subnets for improved
performance, enabling the bandwidth demanding multimedia
and imaging applications. Moreover, the 10/100/1000Mbps
auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate
10/100Mbps to 1000Mbps network with no pain. Compared to
the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbps networks, the switch delivers
a dedicated 10/100/1000Mbps connection to every attached
client with no bandwidth congestion issue. The
GSW-0507/GSW-0807 switch also supports auto MDI / MDI-X
function. Each port could be used to connect to another switch
or hub with no crossover RJ-45 cable.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency
plus eliminates all the network errors, including runt and CRC
error packets. To work under full-duplex mode, transmission
and reception of the frames can occur simultaneously without
causing collisions as well as double the network bandwidth.
The switch is plug-and-play without any software to configure
and also fully compliant with all kinds of network protocols.

Installation
The setup of the GSW-0507/GSW-0807 Switch can be
performed using the following steps:
1. Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See
Technical Specification for the acceptable operation
temperature and humidity ranges.
2. Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic
source, vibration, dust, and direct sunlight.
3. Leave at least 10cm of space at the left and right hand
side of the Switch for ventilation.
4. Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is
fully secured to the power adapter.

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
