INSTALLATION AND SETUP
1
Physical Installation
The AMS-1208P can easily be installed in a standard 19” rack. Two mounting ears
are included for installing and stabilizing the switch. When attaching the mounting
ears and installing the switch in a rack, please refer to the following illustration:
Rack-Mounting the AMS-1208P
Use the included screws to attach the mounting ears to each side
of the switch.
Mount the switch in the rack with the LEDs facing outwards. Be sure the
switch is level and properly secured in the rack.
Desktop Setup
For use as a desktop device, position and apply the included rubber feet to the
bottom of the AMS-1208P.

Connecting Ethernet and Power
Ethernet and Power Connections
Use one of the ten Ethernet ports to connect the AMS-1208P to any Ethernet-
enabled device, including servers, routers or other switches. No crossover cable
is necessary.
The AMS-1208P supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet; 10/100 Mbps half/
full-duplex mode and 1000 Mbps full-duplex mode. Ports 1-8 are PoE+ and
are enabled by default. Ports 9 and 10 are Gigabit Ethernet only (non PoE),
while ports 11 and 12 are Gigabit SFP ports.
Use the included power cable to connect the AMS-1208P to a surge-
protected outlet. The AC input socket is on the rear panel. The built-in
power supply supports 100~240VAC at 50/60Hz.
Network Cabling
Luxul recommends at least Cat-5e unshielded twisted pair (CAT5e UTP)
cabling. To ensure best performance and stable data transmission at 1000
Mbps, use Category-6 unshielded twisted pair (CAT6 UTP).
If you intended to use optical fiber to extend the network beyond the 300-
foot limit of twisted pair Ethernet, SFP modules are required (not included).
c
CAUTION:
Multiple Uplink channels can create loops, resulting in
network failure. Ensure only one Uplink channel exists
between switches or between the AMS-1208P and a router.

NOTE:
When powering up, the port LEDs may take a moment to
initialize. This is normal as the AMS-1208P initialization and
startup sequence completes.
n
NOTE:
The AMS-1208P has an internal 130W power supply. Do not
exceed 25.5W each or 130W combined consumption of all
external PoE devices.
