2. Installation 2.1 Unpacking The product package contains: The switch unit One AC power cord (AC powered Model) One 19” rack mounting kit One product CD-ROM 2.2 Safety Cautions To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electrical shock, fire and damage to the product, observe the following precautions.
2.3 Mounting the Switch Desktop Mounting The switch can be mounted on a desktop or shelf. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the device. Do not place heavy objects on the device. Rack Mounting Two 19-inch rack mounting brackets are supplied with the switch for 19-inch rack mounting.
3. Turn the power to the switch on. 2.4 Applying AC Power Supply If the purchased switch is with AC power input, one AC power cord which meets the specification of your country of origin was supplied in package. Before installing AC power cord to the switch, make sure the AC power is OFF and the AC power to the power cord is turned off.
DC power input specifications Receptacle: Screw-type terminal block Operating Voltages: +40 ~ +72VDC Power Consumption: 39W max. @48VDC (PoE power is excluded) Contacts Vdc+ input Vdc- input Protective earth ** Important Notice For safety, a readily accessible disconnected device (breaker) shall be incorporated external to the equipment. 2.6 Reset Button The reset button is used to perform a reset to the switch.
Operation Function Press the button during system boot-up and release Restore factory default settings it after boot-up. The boot-up takes about 17 seconds (only applicable to the master unit) and ends with LED diagnostics. Press the button and release during switch operation Re-boot the switch unit 2.7 Making UTP Connections The 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper ports support the following connection types and distances:...

come with some SFP transceivers pre-installed when it was shipped. Installing SFP Fiber Transceiver To install an SFP fiber transceiver into SFP slot, the steps are: 1. Turn off the power to the switch. 2. Insert the SFP fiber transceiver into the SFP slot. Normally, a bail is provided for every SFP transceiver. Hold the bail and make insertion.
The following figure illustrates a connection example between two fiber ports: Make sure the Rx-to-Tx connection rule is followed on the both ends of the fiber cable. Network Cables Multimode (MMF) - 50/125μm, 62.5/125 μm Single mode (SMF) - 9/125 μm Fiber Port Configuration For 1000M fiber application on Port 21, 22, 23, and 24, just leave the default port configuration Auto for fiber connection.

To make stack connection in a switch stack, the steps are: 1. Follow the connection rule of “SA to SB” from one switch to another. 2. Connect all switches in the stack sequentially via stack cables. 3. Make sure all SA-to-SB connections become a loop as illustrated in the following figure: -22-...

3. Managing the Switch Stack The switch stack provides the following methods to configure and monitor the switch stack as follows: Making out of band management via RS-232 console port Making in-band management via telnet interface over TCP/IP network Making in-band management via web interface over TCP/IP network Making in-band SNMP management over TCP/IP network After making stack connection as the procedure described in section 2.9, it is required to do the system stack configuration and IP configuration via web interface or telnet interface.

Enter the following default values in the login page: Fixed User Name: admin Default password: No password is required. Click to login into the switch. The following page is displayed after a successful login: A stack icon is displayed and each member switch is assigned a unique Switch ID shown on left side. The blue block provides menu list for management operations.
Select [Configuration] -> [Stack] -> [Password] to perform stack configuration Configuration Description Delete Deletes this switch from the stack configuration. Stack Member The MAC address of the switch Switch ID The Switch ID (1-16) assigned to a switch Master Capable Indicates whether a switch is capable of being master.
Page 28
assignment can be modified by choosing a different Switch ID on the Stack Configuration page. This method allows Switch IDs to be assigned so that it is easier for the user to remember the ID of each switch. The Switch IDs of two switches can be swapped by simply interchanging the values in the Switch ID column. Changing Switch IDs does not result in any interruption of the stack operation.
3.1.3 Master Switch Election in a Stack Within a managed stack, one master switch (or just "master") must be elected. Any switch not being master is a slave switch (or just "slave"). To elect a master, the following criteria are evaluated sequentially: 1.
3.1.4 Stack Configuration via Telnet Interface Start Telnet with default IP and login the switch with username “admin” as follows No password is required under factory default settings. Telnet command syntax and command groups are: -30-...
[Stack] command group. >Stack↵ The keywords and parameters in stack command group are same as described in section 3.1. <sid>: Switch ID <mst_elect_prio> Master election priority <mac_addr> MAC address 3.2 IP Configuration for Stack Although a stack is composed of multiple managed switches connected together via stack ports and each might have been configured with different IP address, the stack can be accessed by a single IP address to all the member switches.
