CONNECTIONS & INDICATORS
LEDs
The LED indicators — Power,
PoE, Link/Activity — make it
easier to monitor the switch and
its connections.
Ports
All ports on the switch support Auto-MDI/MDI-X functionality, so crossover cables
and uplink ports are not needed for connections to PCs, routers, hubs, other
switches, etc. Cat5/5e/6 UTP/STP cables provide optimal performance; if a status
LED doesn’t indicate a link or activity, check the corresponding device for proper
setup and operation. NOTE: The recessed Reset button can be pressed (using a
pin or similar pointed object) to reset the switch if it isn’t responding.
Power
Use the included power cord to connect the device (next to
the On/Off switch on the rear panel) to an AC outlet. Conrm
that the power LED on the front panel is lit.
