Sè qualchì articulu manca o hè dannighjatu, cuntattate subitu u vostru venditore.
3.2 Installazione fisica
- Montaggio in rack: Use the provided rack-mount kit to secure the switch in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Ensure adequate ventilation around the switch.
- Cunnessione di putenza: Connect the power cable to the switch's power input and then to a grounded AC power outlet.
- Initial Network Connection: Connect a computer to the switch's console port using the console cable for initial configuration, or connect to any RJ45 port for network access if DHCP is available.
Ensure all cables are securely connected and routed to prevent accidental disconnections.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Accensione è avviu iniziale
Once the power cable is connected, the switch will automatically power on. Observe the LED indicators on the front panel. The Power LED should illuminate, indicating the device is receiving power. Other LEDs will indicate port status and activity.
4.2 Connettività di u portu
- RJ45 Ports (10/100/1000BASE-T): Connect standard Ethernet cables (Cat5e or higher) to these ports for connecting network devices such as computers, servers, and other switches. These ports support auto-negotiation for speed and duplex settings.
- SFP+ Ports (10 Gigabit Ethernet): Use compatible SFP+ transceivers and fiber optic cables for high-speed uplinks to core switches or servers.
- PoE+ (Power over Ethernet Plus): If your model supports PoE+, these ports can provide power to compatible devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras, eliminating the need for separate power supplies.
4.3 Indicatori LED
The front panel LEDs provide visual status of the switch and its ports:
- LED di putenza: Indica u statu di l'alimentazione (On/Off).
- LED d'errore: Indicates system errors or malfunctions.
- Port Link/Activity LEDs: Indicate link status (solid green for link) and network activity (flashing green). Different colors or patterns may indicate different speeds (e.g., amber for 100Mbps, green for 1Gbps). Refer to the device's specific LED guide for detailed interpretation.
