Introduction
About this Switch
5/8/16 ports switch provides a flexible, reliable and
affordable way of giving any types of network the highspeed backbone solution that they need. The 5/8/16 ports
switch comes complete with 5/8/16 independent
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports, with every port fully
supporting full-wire speed transmissions, up to 200Mbps per
port, and the ability to operate in either half or full-duplex
modes.
It also possesses an N-Way auto-negotiation function, which
automatically adjusts the device for optimum operation;
"store and forward" architecture, to eliminate error packets
and improve efficiency; and one MDI Uplink port, allowing
it to cascade an infinite amount of switches together and
easily expand an existing network. Indeed, with its easy to
use plug-and play installation and outstanding performance
at HUB price. It also provides a detailed LED indicator
display the Power, Link/ Activity, 100M and full duplex for
monitoring your network simple and easy!

Installation
Quick Installation Procedures:
1. Find a location close to the network devices and an
electrical outlet.
2. Desktop Installation: Place switch on a smooth surface.
3. Rack Installation: Use the brackets and scre ws supplied
in the rack mounting kit. Use a cross-head screwdriver
to attach the brackets to the side of the switch. Position
the switch in the rack by lining up holes in the brackets
with the appropriate holes on the rack, and then use the
supplied screws to mount the switch in the rack.
4. Plug the power cord or adapter into the power socket at
the switch and the other end to the power outlet.
Check if the Power LED on the front panel is on.
5. Connect workstations to switch using Category 3, 4 or
5 UTP/STP cables for 10Mbps or Category 5 cables for
100Mbps Fast Ethernet Connection. For convenience,
we suggest you use Category 5 cables for all operation.

6. Verify network operation:
Verify that all attached devices have a valid connection.
The switch monitors the link status for each port. If
any device is properly connected to the switch and
transmitting a link beat signal, the Link indicator will
light up for the corresponding port. If the Link
indicator fails to light when you connect a device to the
switch, check the following items:
a. Be sure all network cables and connectors are
properly attached to the connected device and the
switch.
b. Both sides of each connection must use the same
transmission mode. The switch can use auto negotiation to set both speed and mode. However,
full duplex can only be supported if the attached
device also uses auto negotiation.
c. See if your cable is functioning properly by using it
for another port and attached device that displays
valid indications when connected to the network.
d. Be sure no twisted-pair cable exceeds 100meters.
6
Uplink connections:
Like any switch, any compatible switch, hub or other network
interconnection device can be attached to the Uplin k (MDI) po rt
on the switch.
1. You may connect from an MDI Uplink port on the switch to
any of RJ45 MDI-X port on the target device.
2. Prepare straight-through shielded or unshielded twisted-pair
cables with RJ-45 plugs at both ends. Use
100ohmCategory 3,4 or 5 cable for standard 10Mbps
Ethernet connections, or 100ohm Category 5 cable for
100Mbps Fast Ethernet connections. When inserting an
RJ-45plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to
ensure that it is properly seated.
Note: When the MDI (Uplink) port is used, the latest port
