Part 2 Rack Installation
Rack Installation
The SMP181 is designed to be mounted in a standard 19” rack. It takes 1RU of rack space. To install
it into a rack, please use the following steps:
1. Determine the desired position in the rack for the SMP181. Make sure that the air intake
on the top of the unit and the exhausts on the back of the unit will not be blocked.
2. Install the brackets at desired position if there’s no supporting plate in the rack.
3. Insert the rack mount clips into place over the mounting holes in the rack.
4. Slide the SMP181 into the position in the rack.
5. Secure the chassis to the rack by installing the four supplied screws through the front
mounting holes and tightening.
Note the SMP181 chassis is cooled via inbuilt fans. Operating temperature is within 0～50°C.
AC Power Connection
Only use the supplied 3-prong power connector or one with equal specifications. NEVER tamper
with or remove the grounding pin. This could cause damage to the equipment, personnel, or
property. Make sure the power outlet is switched off before plug or unplug the power cable from the
back panel. Power unit is designed to work under condition of AC100~240V, 50/60Hz. Max
consumption is 50W.
When you move this device from a cold condition into a warmer condition, it should be
acclimated to the warm and humidity condition for at least 30 minutes. Powering up a non-
acclimated unit may lead to shortcut or other damage to electronic components.

Part 3 Web UI Overview
3.1 Web UI Introduction
3.1.1 Connecting to the Management Port
Factory network settings of the Management Port:
IP address 192.168.1.241
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
Use the following step to access the Web UI in a browser.
Connect both SMP181’s management port and the computer’s Ethernet port to a switch by
CAT5 straight-through cables. If you do not have a switch, you can connect the computer
directly to SMP181’s management port.
Set the IP address of the laptop/computer in the same network with the SMP181 management
IP address. For example, you can set the computer’s IP address to 192.168.1.242.
Check the physical connection via Command Prompt (Try to click the Windows Menu Icon in
the corner of the desktop, and hit “CMD “, then press “Enter”, you will open the Command
Prompt). Type “ping 192.168.1.241” or “ping 192.168.1.241 –t” and press “Enter” to check reply
status. Stable and constant replies from 192.168.1.242 (management computer’s IP address)
indicate a reliable physical connection. See the following image.
