Limited Warranty Statement: SMC Networks, Inc. (“SMC”) warrants its products to be free
from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal use and service, for the applicable
warranty term. All SMC products carry a standard 90-day limited warranty from the date of
purchase from SMC or its Authorized Reseller. SMC may, at its own discretion, repair or replace
any product not operating as warranted with a similar or functionally equivalent product, during
the applicable warranty term. SMC will endeavor to repair or replace any product returned under
warranty within 30 days of receipt of the product.
The standard limited warranty can be upgraded to a Limited Lifetime* warranty by registering
new products within 30 days of purchase from SMC or its Authorized Reseller. Registration can
be accomplished via the enclosed product registration card or online via the SMC web site.
Failure to register will not affect the standard limited warranty. The Limited Lifetime warranty
covers a product during the Life of that Product, which is defined as the period of time during
which the product is an “Active” SMC product. A product is considered to be “Active” while it is
listed on the current SMC price list. As new technologies emerge, older technologies become
obsolete and SMC will, at its discretion, replace an older product in its product line with one that
incorporates these newer technologies. At that point, the obsolete product is discontinued and is
no longer an “Active” SMC product. A list of discontinued products with their respective dates
of discontinuance can be found at:
http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?action=customer_service_warranty.
All products that are replaced become the property of SMC. Replacement products may be
either new or reconditioned. Any replaced or repaired product carries either a 30-day limited
warranty or the remainder of the initial warranty, whichever is longer. SMC is not responsible for
any custom software or firmware, configuration information, or memory data of Customer
contained in, stored on, or integrated with any products returned to SMC pursuant to any
warranty. Products returned to SMC should have any customer-installed accessory or add-on
components, such as expansion modules, removed prior to returning the product for
replacement. SMC is not responsible for these items if they are returned with the product.
Customers must contact SMC for a Return Material Authorization number prior to returning
any product to SMC. Proof of purchase may be required. Any product returned to SMC without
a valid Return Material Authorization (RMA) number clearly marked on the outside of the
package will be returned to customer at customer’s expense. For warranty claims within North
America, please call our toll-free customer support number at [phone]. Customers are
responsible for all shipping charges from their facility to SMC. SMC is responsible for return
shipping charges from SMC to customer.

COMPLIANCES
FCC - Class A
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio commu-
nications. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing
device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reason-
able protection against such interference when operated in a commercial environment. Oper-
ation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the
user, at his own expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be required to cor-
rect the interference. You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment.
You may use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) for RJ-45 connections - Category 3 or greater for
10 Mbps connections, and Category 5 for 100 Mbps connections, and Category 5 or 5e for
1000 Mbps connections. For fiber optic connections, you may use 50/125 or 62.5/125
micron multimode fiber or 9/125 micron single-mode fiber.
Warnings: 1. Wear an anti-static wrist strap or take other suitable measures to prevent electro-
static discharge when handling this equipment.
2. When connecting this switch to a power outlet, connect the field ground lead on
the tri-pole power plug to a valid earth ground line to prevent electrical hazards.
Industry Canada - Class A
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digi-
tal apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital
Apparatus,” ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.
Cet appareil numérique respecte les limites de bruits radioélectriques applicables aux appareils
numériques de Classe A prescrites dans la norme sur le matériel brouilleur: “Appareils

Power Cord Safety
Please read the following safety information carefully before installing the switch:
War ning: Installation and removal of the unit must be carried out by qualified personnel only.
• The unit must be connected to an earthed (grounded) outlet to comply with international
safety standards.
• Do not connect the unit to an A.C. outlet (power supply) without an earth (ground)
connection.
• The appliance coupler (the connector to the unit and not the wall plug) must have a
configuration for mating with an EN 60320/IEC 320 appliance inlet.
When using a fiber optic port, never look at the transmit laser while
it is powered on. Also, never look directly at the fiber TX port and
fiber cable ends when they are powered on.
Ne regardez jamais le laser tant qu’il est sous tension. Ne regardez
jamais directement le port TX (Transmission) à fibres optiques et les
embouts de câbles à fibres optiques tant qu’ils sont sous tension.
Niemals ein Übertragungslaser betrachten, während dieses
eingeschaltet ist. Niemals direkt auf den Faser-TX-Anschluß und auf
die Faserkabelenden schauen, während diese eingeschaltet sind.
