network cards used.
The minimum system requirements are:
• Clients running Windows 98/ME, NT4.0, 2000/XP, Vista, MAC OS9 or
later, Linux, UNIX or other platform compatible with TCP/IP protocols.
• Workstation installed with Ethernet NIC (Network interface Card)
• Serial Port connection (Terminal)
• Above PC with COM Port (DB-9)
• Ethernet Port connection
• Network cables - Use standard network (UTP) cables with RJ45
connectors
• Above PC installed with WEB Browser and JAVA runtime
environment Plug-in
Note: We recommend using Windows XP or Windows 7 with Internet
Explorer 6.0 or above for access to the switch management setup.
Wiring the Power Units
The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of Managed
Industrial Switch is used for two DC redundant power inputs.
Note: This product is intended to be supplied by a UL Listed Direct Plug-In
Power Unit marked "Class 2" or "LPS" and output rated 48 VDC, 380 mA
minimum.
Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire.
1. Insert the positive/negative DC power wires into the contacts 1 and 2 for
POWER 2, or 5 and 6 for POWER 1.

Terminal Setup
There are three ways to access and setup your switch. They are:
• RS-232 console
• Telnet
• Web Browser
RS-232 console
To configure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or
notebook computer and to the serial (console) port of the GE-DSH-82
Managed Switch. The console port of the Managed Switch is DCE already so
that you can connect the console port directly through PC without the need of
a Null Modem.
