2.Product Introduction
Thank you and congratulations on your purchase of D-Link DGS-1100 SeriesSwitch Products.
D-Link's next generation DGS-1100 Seriesswitchesblends plug-and-play simplicity withexceptional
value and reliability for small and medium-sized business (SMB) networking. All models arehoused
in a new style rack-mount metal case with easy-to-view frontpanel diagnostic LEDs.
The brand-new DGS-1100 seriesare born to be green by design of IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient
Ethernet compliant (abbreviatedas EEE) and D-Link Green Technologies. It allows significant power
saving during periods of low data activity. In most of use cases and environments, switches are idle
in 90% or more of time. While no traffic in a short period of time, ports on DGS-1100 switch get into
power saving mode automatically. Once if a packet is received, the switch wakes and works
immediately. Connecting to EEE compliant devices, such as PCs and servers, the network can save
energy without compromising any performance. While connecting to legacy devices which do not
support IEEE 802.3az, D-Link Green Technologies can reduce power consumptionby changing the
power state of the link.

3.Hardware Installation
This chapter provides unpacking and installationinformation forthe D-LinkSwitch.
Step 1: Unpacking
Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack its contents. Please consult the packing list located in
the User Manualto make sure all items are present and undamaged. If any item is missing or
damaged, please contact your local D-Link reseller for replacement.
Packing contents of DGS-1100-16/18/24/24P/26
•One D-Link DGS-1100 SeriesSwitch
•One AC power cord
•Four rubber feet
•Screws and two mounting brackets
•One accessorykit for a ground screw
•One Multi-lingual Getting Started Guide
•One CD with User Manual
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact the local reseller for replacement.
Step 2: Switch Installation
For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended that you:
•Visually inspect the power cord to see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector.
•Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
•Do not place heavy objects on the switch.
Desktop or Shelf Installation
When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the device must be
attached on the bottom at each corner of the device’s base. Allow enough ventilationspace between
the device and the objects around it.
Figure 3-1 – Attach the adhesive rubber pads to the bottom

Rack Installation
The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 11-inch rack, which can be placed in a wiring
closet with other equipment.To install, attach the mounting brackets to the switch’s side panels (one
on each side) and secure them with the screws provided (please note that these brackets are not
designed for palm size switches).
Figure 3-2 – Attach the mounting brackets to the Switch
Then, use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack.
Figure 3-3 – Mount the Switch in the rackor chassis
Please be aware of following safety Instructions when installing:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air
flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit
(e.g. use of power strips)."

Step 3 – Plugging in the AC Power Cord
Users may now connect the AC power cord into the rear of the switch and to an electrical outlet
(preferably one that is grounded and surge protected).
Figure 3-4 – Plugging the switch into an outlet
Power Failure
As a precaution, the switch should be unplugged in case of power failure. When power is resumed,
plug the switch back in.
Grounding the Switch
This section describes how to connect the DGS-1100 SeriesSwitch to ground. You must complete
this procedure beforepoweringyour switch.
Required Tools and Equipment
•Ground screws(included in the accessorykit): One M4 x 6 mm (metric) pan-head screw
•Ground cable (notincluded in theaccessorykit): The groundingcable should be sized
according to local and national installationrequirements. Depending on the powersupply
and system, a 12 to 6 AWG copper conductoris required for U.S installation. Commercially
available 6 AWG wire is recommended. The length of the cable depends on the proximity of
the switch to proper grounding facilities.
•A screwdriver (notincluded in theaccessorykit)
The following steps let youconnect the switch to a protective ground:
Step 1: Verifyif thesystem power is off.
Step 2: Usethe ground cabletoplacethe #8 terminal lug ring on top of the ground-screw opening,
as seen in the figure below.
Step 3: Insert the ground screw into the ground-screw opening.
Step 4: Using a screwdriver, tighten the ground screw to secure the ground cable to the switch.
Step 5: Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end of the grounding cable to an appropriate
grounding stud or bolt on rack where theswitch is installed.
Step 6: Verify if the connections at the ground connector on the switch and the rack are securely
