Compex Fast
Ethernet Desktop
Switch
PS2208B-SS
Version 2.1
1. Introduction
Figure 1 PS2208B-SS
This improved Fast Ethernet Desktop Switch is very ideal for small and home
office networks. It comes with 8 10/100Mbps ports capable of full or half
duplex transmission with flow control. In addition, the switch supports full
auto-negotiation and self-configures for the highest possible operation mode
between two nodes. Unlike Hubs or Repeaters for which the 100Mbps
bandwidth is shared among the ports, the switch is designed with a backplane
of 1.6Gbps, allowing all 8 nodes to operate at full performance. Moreover, it
forwards the incoming packets only to the related ports, avoiding collisions
commonly seen in a Hub or Repeater. This switch has an earth connection
point used for suppression of lightning surges to protect itself.

5. Installation of PS2208B-SS
The switch can be installed on a flat surface (desktop) or mounted on a wall.
Follow the steps below for proper installation.
Desktop installation
1. Unpack the switch.
2. Choose a location near the devices to be connected and close to an
electrical outlet. Preferably placed the switch on a desktop or any other
clean, smooth, level and sturdy surface.
3. Ensure that there is enough clearance around the unit to allow attachment
of network cables and power adapter to allow air circulation.
4. Connect the power adapter that is supplied in the package to the switch.
The POWER LED and PORT LED for each connected port should light
up.
Wall installation
1. Measure the distance between the mounting holes at the bottom of the
switch and mark the wall to match the location of the mounting holes on
the switch.
2. Drill pilot holes at the two marked locations.
3. Fix two 5/16-inch diameters flat-head mounting screws into the wall,
with the heads of the screws protruding 1/8 inch out from the wall.
4. Carefully set the switch over the screws in the wall; then slide the switch
down onto the screws, pressing it slightly to the wall.
5. Connect the power adapter that is supplied in the package to the switch.
The POWER LED and PORT LED for each connected port should light
up.
6. Installation of Earth Connection Point
The switch can be protected from the damage caused by lightning surges by
the Earth Connection Point and the lightning-proof Port 1 and 8.
Follow the steps below for proper installation. (Refer to the earth connection
point on Panel Views).
1. Connect the earth connection point of the metal to the Earth Connection
Point.
2. Connect the RJ45 Cable that causes lightning surges possibly to Port # 1
or #8.
