1. The device is a power-required device, meaning it will not work till it is powered. If your network should be active all the time, please consider using UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device. It will prevent you from network data loss or network downtime.
2. In some areas, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect your Gigabit Ethernet Switch from being damaged by unregulated surge or current to the Switch or the power adapter.

Installing the Switch

This part describes how to install your Gigabit Ethernet Switch and make connections to it. Please follow the procedure below:

This Gigabit Ethernet Switch does not need software configuration.

Desktop Installation

To install the Gigabit Ethernet Switch on the desktop, simply follow these steps:

• Step 1: Attach the rubber feet to the recessed areas on the bottom of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
• Step 2: Place the Gigabit Ethernet Switch on the desktop near an AC power source.
• Step 3: Keep enough ventilation space between the Gigabit Ethernet Switch and the surrounding objects.

When choosing a location, please keep in mind the environmental restrictions discussed in Section 3 under Product Specifications.

• Step 4: Connect your Gigabit Ethernet Switch to network devices.

1. Connect one end of a standard network cable to the 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 ports on the front of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the network devices such as printer servers, workstations or routers, etc.

• Step 5: Supply power to the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.

1. Connect one end of the power cable to the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
2. Connect the power plug of the power cable to a standard wall outlet.

When the Gigabit Ethernet Switch receives power, the Power LED should remain solid Green.

Rack Mounting

To install the Gigabit Ethernet Switch in a 19-inch standard rack, follow the instructions described below:

• Step 1: Place your Gigabit Ethernet Switch on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned towards your front side.
• Step 2: Attach a rack-mount bracket to each side of the Switch with supplied screws attached to the package. Figure 4 shows how to attach brackets to one side of the Gigabit Ethernet Switch.

You must use the screws supplied with the mounting brackets. Damage caused to the parts by using incorrect screws would invalidate your warranty.

• Step 3: Secure the brackets tightly.
• Step 4: Follow the same steps to attach the second bracket to the opposite side.
• Step 5: After the brackets are attached to the Gigabit Ethernet Switch, use suitable screws to securely attach the brackets to the rack, as shown in Figure 5.
