Non-condensing). Do not place objects on top of the unit. Do not obstruct
any vents at the sides of the unit. Do not position the unit near any

Step 1 Connecting to network devices
The RJ-45 ports on the switch support Auto-MDI/MDI-X function which
allows using straight-through or cross-over type cables to connect this
switch to workstation or hub.
Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the rear panel,
and connect the other end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the
network device. Follow the same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports
of the switch. The UTP network cables must be two pairs Category 5 for
100Mbps data transmission; two pairs Category 3, 4 or 5 standards for
10Mbps data transmission. Maximum length, using UTP cable, between
the switch and connected device is 100 meters (300ft).
Step 2 Connecting the power
Connect the output end of the power adapter to the power connector on
the right panel of the switch. Connect the power adapter to the power
outlet. The green Power LED on the front panel should be lit. Once the
network cable is connected to both ends in Step 1 and the attached
network device is powered on, the green LNK/ACT LED should be lit.
