8-/16-/24-Port 10/100 PoE PSE Web Smart Switch 3. Installation 3.1 Hardware and Cable Installation CAUTION: Wear a grounding device to avoid damage from electrostatic discharge. Be sure that the power switch is OFF before you connect the power cord to the power source. 3.1.1 TP Port and Cable Installation 1.
Chapter 3: Installation 3.1.3 Power On The switch supports a 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply. The power supply will automatically convert the local AC power source to DC power. It does not matter whether any connection is plugged into the switch or not when powering on. After the power is on, all LED indicators will light immediately and then all go off except the power LED, which stays on.
8-/16-/24-Port 10/100 PoE PSE Web Smart Switch 3.4 Switch Cascading in Topology Theoretically, the switch partitions the collision domain for each port in switch cascading so that you may uplink an unlimited number of switches. In practice, the network extension (cascading levels and overall diameter) must comply with the IEEE 802.3/802.3u and other 802.1 series protocol specifications, which limit the timing requirement from physical signals defined by the Media Access Control (MAC) and PHY802.3 series specification, and the timer from some OSI layer 2 protocols such as 802.1d, 802.1q, and LACP.

8-/16-/24-Port 10/100 PoE PSE Web Smart Switch 5. Troubleshooting Q: Resolving No Link Condition A: The possible causes for a no link LED status are as follows: - The attached device is not powered on. - The cable may not be the correct type or is faulty. - The installed building premise cable is faulty.
Chapter 6: IP Address Assignment 6. IP Address Assignment For IP address configuration, there are three parameters you need to fill in. They are IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway and DNS. 6.1 IP address The address of the network device in the network is used for internetworking communication. Its address structure is shown in Figure 3-11.
8-/16-/24-Port 10/100 PoE PSE Web Smart Switch we divide it into smaller networks by extending the network prefix from 16 bits to, say 24 bits, the network uses its third byte to subnet this class B network. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0; each bit of the first three bytes is 1. The first two bytes are used to identify the class B network, the third byte is used to identify the subnet within this class B network, and the last byte is the host number.
Chapter 6: IP Address Assignment Figure 6-3. System IP configuration screen. First, IP Address: as shown in the Figure 6-3, enter default IP address “192.168.1.1”, for instance. For sure, an IP address such as 192.168.1.x must be set on your PC. Second, Subnet Mask: as shown in Fig.
