Power Notice:
1. The device is a power-required device, it means, it will not work till it is powered. If your networks should active all the
time, please consider using UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device. It will prevent you from network data
loss or network downtime.
2. In some area, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect your Switch from being damaged by
unregulated surge or current to the Switch or the power adapter.

2.2.3 Installing the SFP transceiver
The sections describe how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP interfaces.
The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggabe and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP interfaces
without having to power down the Switch. As the Figure 2-5 appears.
Figure 2-5 Plug-in the SFP transceiver
Approved PLANET SFP Transceivers
PLANET GSW-4804SF supports both Single-mode and Multi-mode SFP transceiver. The following list of approved PLANET
SFP transceivers is correct at the time of publication:
■ MGB-GT SFP (1000Base-T SFP transceiver )
■ MGB-SX SFP (1000Base-SX SFP transceiver )
■ MGB-LX SFP (1000Base-LX SFP transceiver )
Before connect the other switches, workstation or Media Converter.
1. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX,
1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.
2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transceiver model.
¾ To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transceiver, use the Multi-mode fiber cable- with one side must be male duplex LC
connector type.
¾ To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver, use the Single-mode fiber cable-with one side must be male duplex
LC connector type.
-14-
User’s Manual of GSW-4804SF
Connect the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a Media
Converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot on the front of the Switch. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is operating correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link failed. Co works with some fiber-NICs or Media Converters, set the Link
mode to “1000” is needed.
Remove the transceiver module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consult or check with the network administrator. Or through the management
interface of the switch/converter (if available) to disable the port in advance.
2. Remove the Fiber Optic Cable gently.
3. Turn the handle of the MGB module to horizontal.
4. Pull out the module gently through the handle.
#Notice:
Figure 2-6 Pull out the SFP transceiver
Never pull out the module without pull the handle or the push bolts on the module. Direct pull out the
module with violent could damage the module and SFP module slot of the device.

3. CONFIGURATION
This chapter explains the methods that you can use to configure management access to the Switch. It describes the types of
management applications and the communication and management protocols that deliver data between your management
device (work-station or personal computer) and the system. It also contains information about port connection options.
This chapter covers the following topics:
Management Access Overview
Administration Console Access
Reset system to factory default mode under Console interface
Web Management Access
Standards, Protocols, and Related Reading
3.1 Management Access Overview
The Switch gives you the flexibility to access and manage the Switch using any or all of the following methods:
An administration console for reset system to factory default mode
Web browser interface for Smart function configuration
The administration Web browser interface embedded in the Switch software and it is available for immediate use, and the
console interface designed for reset system to factory default mode. Both management methods have their own advantages.
Table 3-1 compares both management methods.
Method Advantages Disadvantages
Console
Web
Browser
‧Once forget or loss the IP address and
username / password, allow to reset system
to factory defult mode easily.
‧Ideal for configuring the Switch remotely.
‧Compatible with all popular browsers.
‧Can be accessed from any location.
‧Most visually appealing.
Table 3-1 Management Methods Comparison
‧Not provide further management fucntion configure ability.
‧Security can be compromised (hackers need only know the IP
address and subnet mask).
‧May encounter lag times on poor connections.

User’s Manual of GSW-4804SF
3.2 Administrator Console Access
The administration console is a local connection method between the administrator PC and the Switch. Using this method, you
can reset the Switch to factory default mode from a personal computer, Apple Macintosh, or workstation connected to the
Switch's console (Serial) port. Direct access to the administration console is achieved by directly connecting a terminal or a PC
equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the Switch console (Serial) port.
When using this management method, a null-modem cable is required to connect the Switch to the PC. After making this
connection, configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following parameters:
The default parameters are:
9600 bps
8 Data bits
No Parity
1 Stop bits
No Flow Control
After log on the Switch. This Console interface is often preferred for remain connected and monitor the system during save
current system configuration or system reboots.

3.3 Reset to Factory Default Mode under Console Interface
Once, lose or forget the current IP address or login username / password. Once the terminal has connected to the Switch,
power on the Switch, the terminal will display that is perform the loading GSW-4804SF program procedures. When the
“ Waiting 2 seconds : Press <d> for default parameters” text appears, please press “d” from your keyboard then the Switch
will perform the reset device to factory default mode procedure and the screen appears in Figure 3-1.
#Notice:

management methods with a single MAPI, configuration parameters set using one method (console port, for example) are
immediately displayable by the other management methods (for example, Web browser).
The management architecture of the Switch adheres to the IEEE open standard. This compliance assures customers that the
Switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other solutions that adhere to the same open standard.
