• Short Cable Power Saving. Dynamically detects and adjusts power that is required for
the detected cable length.
The setting of the administrative mode is either Enable or Disable. The default setting is
Enable.
• Link-Down Power Saving. Reduces the power consumption considerably when the
network cable is disconnected. When the network cable is reconnected, the switch
detects an incoming signal and restores normal power.
The setting of the administrative mode is either Enable or Disable. The default setting is
Enable.

savings options. You cannot use the ProSAFE Plus Utility to do so.

You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is
off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the switch using a web
browser on page 17.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch's password in the password field.
The switch's default password is password.
The Switch Information page displays.
