Installing the Switch

Connecting to a Power Source

To connect a device to a power source:
1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the socket located at the back of the
device.
2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin, AC power source.
Note: For international use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must
use a line cord set that has been approved for the receptacle type in your
country.
3. Check the front-panel LEDs as the device is powered on to be sure the Power
LED is on. If not, check that the power cable is correctly plugged in.

Connecting to the Console Port

The RJ-45 serial port on the switch's front panel is used to connect to the switch for
out-of-band console configuration. The on-board configuration program can be
accessed from a terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation program. The pin
assignments used to connect to the serial port are provided in the following table.
