Power Considerations
Applied voltage must be in the range
specified and deliver a current that is
commensurate with 4 VA of power
consumption. The recommended size
for solid power conductors is 16–20
AWG. Zero volts (COM) is isolated
from chassis (earth). Input connections
are reverse-polarity protected.
LED Indicators
The power LED glows when proper power is applied. Each port has two LEDs.
Link
glows solid if the port has a proper connection to an operating Ethernet device and
Activity
flashes as data is exchanged with the attached device.
Copper Cabling Option
A cabling option exists for copper lines:
crossover wiring attached to the “normal” port
(marked
X
) or straight-through wiring attached to the “uplink” port (MDI).
NOTE:
the two RJ-45 ports can NOT be used simultaneously.
