Step 3
Understanding Device
Network Connections
At this point, please connect the AC power cord into
an electrical outlet (preferably one that is grounded
and surge protected) and into the rear of the switch.
Once the switch is powered on, you will be able to
immediately see whether the network connections
are valid or not. A valid connection will cause the
Link/Act LED on the front panel of the switch to
light up for the corresponding port being connected.
Power Failure
As a precaution, the switch should be unplugged in
case of power failure. When power is resumed, plug
the switch back in.
Step 4
Plugging in the AC Power
Cord
Computers, servers and routers can be connected to
the switch by using media-appropriate fiber optic
cabling. For more information about cable types,
please refer to the User's Guide.
