S108 Series Industrial Switches | User Manual 15 www.vantrontech.com
5. Gently swing the switch to make sure the switch is fastened on the DIN rail;
6. Insert one end of an Ethernet cable into any RJ45 port of the switch and the other end
into a switch or server to connect the switch to the network;
7. Use another Ethernet cable to connect a client device to another RJ45 port of the
switch when necessary;
8. Insert the terminal end of the DC power connector into the power terminal of the
switch and the other end into the power cord;
9. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet that meets the supply voltage requirement
(12V to 48V DC) to turn on the device.
2.2 Starting the Device
S108 series unmanaged industrial switches offer a plug-and-play solution, and users need
only to connect the switch to a power source to start using the device. There is no
requirement for additional configurations.
