5. Installation

(1) Operating Environment
This 16 ports smart switch must be installed and operated within the limits of specified operating temperature and humidity (see previous section under Specifications). Do not place objects on top of the unit. Do not obstruct any vents at the sides of the unit. Do not position the unit near any heating source such as heater, radiator, or direct exposure to sun. Prevent entering of water and moisture into the unit. If necessary, use dehumidifier to reduce humidity.
(2) Connecting network devices
The RJ-45 ports on the switch are designed as MDI-X ports which allow using straight-through cables to connect this switch to workstation or hub’s uplink port (MDI). A crossover cable must be used to connect the switch directly to a hub’s regular port.
Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the front panel, and connect the other end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the network device. Follow the same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports of the switch. The UTP network cables must comply with EIA/TIA 568 specifications and Category 5 standard for 100Mbps data transmission. Maximum length, using UTP cable, between the switch and connected device is 100 meters (300ft). Once the network cable is connected to both ends and the attached network device is powered on, the green LNK/ACT LED should be lit.
An uplink port is located right next to the 16th port of this switch. The uplink port is a shared port with the 16th port but provides the MDI connecting to another hub/switch using regular straight-through cables. Otherwise if you have bought our fiber option module that you can expansion to 1.5k meters (5000ft) between the switch and connected device.
(3) Connecting the power
Connect the power cord to the power socket on the rear panel of the unit. Connect the power cord to the power outlet and turn on power switch. The Power LED on the front panel should be lit.

7. Trouble-shooting

1. Power LED is not lit
Check if the power cord is properly connected to the power outlet
and the hub. Make sure the power switch on the hub is turned ON.
2. 100M Link is not lit when connect to 100Mbps device
Check the power switch of the network device attached to the
switch; make sure it is turned ON.
Check the network cable; make sure it is properly connected to the
switch and the network device.
Check the network cable; make sure the UTP cables comply with
EIA/TIA 568 and Category 5 specification.
If normal RJ-45 ports are used to connect to a hub/switch, make
sure you have connected to the uplink port and not an regular port. If RJ-45 ports are used to connect to a hub’s regular port, make sure the crossover cable is used.
3. Collision LED flashes constantly
Make sure the cable is connected to the uplink port. Check the network cable; make sure it is properly connected to
both hubs. One end of the cable should be connected to the first port while the other end of the cable should connected to a regular port. Do not connect the cable to both uplink ports.
Check the network cable; make sure the cable complies with
EIA/TIA 568 specification. Use CAT5 cables for 100Mbps connection and minimum CAT3 cables for 10Mbps connection.
4. Collision LED flashes constantly
Remove all the network cables; connect the cables back one by one
to isolate the source of the collision.
Check the network cable, inferior cable quality will result in
excessive collision and error packets.
[!] Contact your dealer if problem persist.
