Connection
• Connect the power socket of the gigabit switch over the power cable with a power
plug included in the package contents (for voltage, see Chapter “Technical data“).
The power LED of the gigabit switch must light up now, indicating that the product is
ready for operation.
• Connect the RJ45 network ports of the gigabit switch with the corresponding con-
nections of your computer (or with other devices with network connections, e.g.
television, satellite receiver, games consoles etc.).
The gigabit switch supplied has automatic uplink recognition for each port,
which allows for particularly simple wiring to other switches. A cross-link
cable is not required any more, you can use a conventional 1:1 connected
networking cable.
• One green LED per port is used as Link-/Act-LED. The LED is lit continually for a
faultless network connection or it flashes during data transfers.
One yellow LED per port indicates an existing gigabit connection (LED lights up at
1000MBit, LED goes off at 10/100MBit).
Installation and assembly
The gigabit switch can be installed or operated in different ways:
•
Installation on a level surface (table, counter top etc.)
If the rubber supports are delivered separately, paste them at the bottom of the
gigabit switch.
Ensure that the gigabit switch is stable and that it cannot topple over.
Protect valuable furniture surfaces with a suitable base, as otherwise scratches
may develop; or the surface may be exposed to discolouration from the rubber sup-
ports caused by chemical reactions.
•
Wall mounting with the help of mounting holes at the bottom
The gigabit switch can be mounted on the wall with two screws or hooks on the
wall.
While driving the screws/hooks in the wall provided for the purpose (you can also
use fitting dowels), please ensure that no cable or pipe in the wall is damaged!
Finally, hang the gigabit switch on the screws/hooks you just fixed on the wall, so
that it sits tightly and cannot fall down.
•
Use of the magnets included in the delivery
Fasten the magnets with the countersunk bolt included in the delivery to the bottom
of the gigabit switch. Do not use any other screws to fasten the magnets, because
this can damage the gigabit switch (too long screws destroy the PCB inside the
gigabit switch; loss of warranty!).
The network switch can now be fastened on a suitable surface over the magnets.
Please note that fastening the magnets can lead to scratches on the mounting sur-
face!
The magnets can damage data storage units based on magnetic memory (diskettes,
magnet tapes, hard drives, etc). Make sure to keep adequate distance from such
data storage units.
