This Equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at
his own expense.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received; including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
CE Mark Warning

1. Unpacking Information
The device is a powerful, high-performance Fast Ethernet switch, with all 24
ports capable of 10 or 100Mbps auto-negotiation operation (NWay), which
means the switch could automatically negotiate with the connected partners on
the network speed and duplex mode. It is ideal for micro-segmenting large
networks into smaller, connected subnets for improved performance, enabling
the bandwidth demanding multimedia and imaging applications. Moreover, the
10/100Mbps auto-sensing ability provides an easy way to migrate 10Mbps to
100Mbps network with no pain. Compared to the shared 10Mbps or 100Mbp s
networks, the switch delivers a dedicated 10/100Mbps connection to every
attached client with no bandwidth congestion issue. This switch also supports
auto MDI / MDI-X function. Each port could be used to connect to another switch
or hub with no crossover RJ-45 cable.
Store-and-forward switching mode promises the low latency plus eliminates all
the network errors, including runt and CRC error packets. To work under
full-duplex mode, transmission and reception of the frames can occur
simultaneously without causing collisions as well as double the network
bandwidth.
The switch is plug-n-play without any software to configure and also fully
compliant with all kinds of network protocols. Moreover, the rich diagnostic LEDs
on the front-panel can provide the operating status of individual port and whole
system.
Before you start to install the switch, check the following contents in this
package:
● One 24-Port Fast Ethernet Switch
● One Power cord
● User’s manual
● Rack-mount brackets and screws (optional)

3. Station Connection
Connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one RJ-45
connector into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the other RJ-45 connector
into the station’s network adapter. Power on the switch and then system is
ready.
For cable selection, refer to the following table.

Station Connection
In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to connect another
switch with straight or crossover cable. As all the ports support auto MDI / MDI-X
function, using a straight cable to make a switch-to-switch connection is allowed.
For cable selection, refer to the following table:
Network Speed Cable Type Max. Length
10Mbps
100Mbps
Rack-Mount
The switch may standalone, or may be mounted in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack. Rack mounting produces an orderly installation when you have
a number of related network devices.
The switch is supplied with two optional rack mounting brackets and screws.
These are used for rack mounting the unit.
