2. Installation

This chapter describes how to install and connect your DG-GS1512HP Switch. Read the
following topics and perform the procedures in the correct order. Incorrect installation
may cause damage to the product.

2.1. Mounting the Switch

There are two ways to physically set up the switch.

• Place the switch on a flat surface. To place the switch on a desktop, install the

four rubber feet (included) on the bottom of the switch.

• Mount the switch in a standard rack (1 rack unit high).

2.1.1. Placement Tips

• Ambient Temperature—To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it
in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C).

• Air Flow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the switch.

• Mechanical Loading—Be sure that the switch is level and stable to avoid any

hazardous conditions.

• Circuit Overloading—Adding the switch to the power outlet must not overload

that circuit.

Follow these guidelines to install the switch securely.

1. Put the switch in a stable place such as a desktop, to avoid it falling.

2. Ensure the switch works in the proper AC input range and matches the voltage

labeled.

3. Ensure there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the

switch.

4. Ensure the switch’s location can support the weight of the switch and its

accessories.

2.1.2. Rack Mounting

You can mount the switch in any standard size, 19-inch (about 48 cm) wide rack. The
switch requires 1 rack unit (RU) of space, which is 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) high.

For stability, load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest
devices on the bottom. A top-heavy rack is likely to be unstable and may tip
over.

When mounting smaller switch products into a standard 19-inch rack, a pair
of extension brackets (sometimes referred to as ears) are needed to adapt
the switch to the rack size.

These extension brackets are mounted on the switch using the screws
provided in the kit, and have two holes that are used to then screw the
switch into the rack.

An example of one type of these extension brackets is shown in the following

figure.

A common problem that occurs during rack mounting is the distance between
the screw holes on the rack. Some racks are made with a uniform distance
between all of the holes, and others have the holes organized into groups
(see photo on the next page for an example).

When organized into groups, the switch must be placed in the rack so that
the holes in the extension brackets line up correctly.

1. Align the mounting brackets with the mounting holes on the switch’s side panels

and secure the brackets with the screws provided.

3. Getting Started

This section provides an introduction to the web-based configuration utility, and

covers the following topics:

• Powering on the device

• Connecting to the network

• Power over Ethernet (PoE) considerations

• Starting the web-based configuration utility

3.1. Power

3.1.1. Connecting to Power

Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring a
switch.

Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not use
any other power components except those specifically designated for the
switch.

Disconnect the power cord before installation or cable wiring.

DG-GS1512HP User Manual

18

The switch is powered by the AC 100-240 V 50/60Hz internal high-performance power
supply. It is recommended to connect the switch with a single-phase three-wire power
source with a neutral outlet, or a multifunctional computer professional source.

Connect the AC power connector on the back panel of the switch to the external
power source with the included power cord, and check the power LED is on.

Figure 7 - Rear View AC Power Socket

3.1.2. Connecting to the Network

To connect the switch to the network:

1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of a computer

2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to one of the numbered Ethernet

ports of the switch. The LED of the port lights if the device connected is
active.

3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 for each device to connect to the switch.

We strongly recommend using CAT-5E or better cable to connect network
devices. When connecting network devices, do not exceed the maximum
cabling distance of 100 meters (328 feet). It can take up to one minute
for attached devices or the LAN to be operational after it is connected.
This is normal behavior.

Connect the switch to end nodes using a standard Cat 5/5e Ethernet cable
(UTP/STP) to connect the switch to end nodes as shown in the illustration below.

Switch ports will automatically adjust to the characteristics (MDI/MDI-X, speed,
duplex) of the device to which the switch is connected.

Figure 8 - PC Connect

3.1.3. Power over Ethernet (PoE) Considerations

For PoE switch models, consider the following information:

Devices considered a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), can support up to 30 Watts
per PoE port to a Powered Device (PD).

Ports 1-8 provide PoE power supply functionality with a maximum output power up
to 30W each port. This can supply power to PDs such as internet phones, network
cameras, wireless access points. Connect the switch PoE port directly to the PD port
using a network cable.

When connecting switches capable of supplying PoE, consider the following
information:

• Switch models with PoE function are PSEs. These models are capable of

supplying DC power to attached PDs, such as VoIP phones, IP cameras,
and wireless access points (APs). PoE switches. Additionally, PoE switches
are capable of detecting and supplying power to pre-standard legacy PoE
Power Devices. Due to the support for legacy PoE, there is a possibility
that PoE switches acting as a PSE may inadvertently detect and supply

DG-GS1512HP User Manual

20

power an attached PSE, including other PoE switches. This false detection
may result in a PoE switch operating improperly and unable to supply
power to attached PDs.

• The prevention of a false detection can be easily remedied by disabling

PoE on the ports that are used to connect PSEs. Another simple practice
to prevent a false detection is to first power up a PSE device before
connecting it to a PoE switch.

• When a device is falsely detected as a PD, disconnect the device from the

PoE port and power recycle the device with AC power before reconnecting
it to the PoE port.

3.1.4. Starting the Web-based Configuration Utility

This section describes how to navigate the web-based switch configuration utility.

Be sure to disable any pop-up blocker.

Browser Restrictions

• If you are using older versions of Internet Explorer, you cannot directly use an

IPv6 address to access the device. You can, however, use the DNS (Domain
Name System) server to create a domain name that contains the IPv6 address,
and then use that domain name in the address bar in place of the IPv6 address.

• If you have multiple IPv6 interfaces on your management station, use the IPv6

global address instead of the IPv6 link local address to access the device from
your browser.

Launching the Configuration Utility

To open the web-based configuration utility:

1. Open a Web browser.

2. Enter the IP address of the device you are configuring in the address bar on the

browser (factory default IP address is 192.168.1.10) and then press Enter.

When the device is using the factory default IP address, its power LED
flashes continuously. When the device is using a DHCP assigned IP address

DG-GS1512HP User Manual

21

or an administrator-configured static IP address, the power LED is lit a
solid color. Your computer’s IP address must be in the same subnet as the
switch. For example, if the switch is using the factory default IP address,
your computer’s IP address can be in the following range: 192.168.1.x
(whereas x is a number from 2 to 254).

After a successful connection, the login window displays.
