Stack ports
There are two stack ports on the front panel. One is IN and the other is OUT. When stacked, the IN port should connect to the other switchs OUT port and the OUT port should connect to other switchs IN out. You can just use normal Cat 5 or better cable with RJ-45 connector to stack. Only straight-through UTP/STP cable can be used. There is no Duplex Mode issue and the maximum distance between first and last switch is 800m.
SWITCH ID
Each switch on a stack must have a unique switch ID. There are eight degrees (0~7) in the rotary switch. The switch with least switch ID will become master switch and the others become slave. If master switch is fail or disconnected to the switch by stack port, the switch with least switch ID will become master.
Reset button
At the middle of front panel, the reset button is designed for reboot the switch without turn off and on the power.
Network ports
There are 14 10/100/1000Mbps RJ-45 (copper) ports on the front panel. The auto-negotiation feature of the switch allows each port of the device running at one of the following operation modes:
Speed Duplex Mode
Full Duplex 10Mbps Half Duplex Full Duplex 100Mbps Half Duplex
1000Mbps Full Duplex
All ports supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover capability that is the port can connect either the PC or hub without crossover cable adjustment. Following are the summaries of cabling required:

You can use a normal RS-232 cable and connect to the console port on the device. After the connection, you can run any terminal emulation program (Hyper Terminal, Winterm, Telix, and so on) to enter the startup screen of the device.
Power Receptacle
For compatibility with electric service in most areas of the world, the switchs power supply automatically adjusts to line power in the range 100-240 VAC and 50-60 Hz.
Plug the female end of the power cord firmly into the receptacle on the rear panel of the switch. Plug the other end of the power cord into an electric service outlet then the power will be ready.
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.

2.3 Hardware Installation

This switch can be placed directly on your desktop, or mounted in a rack. If you install the device in a normal-standalone standard, the switch is an Intelligent Switch, and users can immediately use most of the features simply by attaching the cables and turning the power on. In this case, any managerial proceedings are effective only in the range of the switch. After management stacking, you can enjoy the powerful management functions and control the whole system.
Desktop Installation
For desktop installation, the switch needs to put on a clean, flat desk or table close to a power outlet. Plug in all network cables and the power cord, then the system is ready.
Before installing the switch, you must ensure:
1. It is accessible and cables can be connected easily.
2. Cabling is away from:
w Sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband amplifiers w Power lines and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
3. Keep water or moisture off.
4. Airflow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is great for heat radiation (company recommend that you provide a minimum of 25 mm clearance).
To prolong the operational life of your units:
1. Never stack unit more than eight sets high if freestanding.
2. Do not place objects on top of any unit or stack.
3. Do not obstruct any vents at the sides of the case.

Rack-mount Installation
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 rack mounting brackets and screws. These are used for rack mounting the unit.
Rack Mounting the Switch in the 19-inch rack:
1. Disconnect all cables from the switch before continuing.
2. Place the unit the right way up on a hard, flat surface with the front facing toward you.
3. Locate a mounting bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.
4. Insert the screws and fully tighten with a suitable screwdriver.
5. Repeat the two previous steps for the other side of the unit.
6. Insert the unit into the 19" rack and secure with suitable screws (not provided).
7. Reconnect all cables.
Installing Network Cables
Station Connections - Refer to the wiring statement of the previous section; connect each station to the switch
with correct type of cables. Switch-to-Switch Connections – In making a switch-to-switch connection, use Gigabit ports to connect another switch or
backbone is strongly recommended. The Gigabit ports provide the fat pipe to the server or backbone connectivity for boosting the total system performance. Refer to the wiring statement of the previous section; connect each station to the switch with correct type of cables.
Furthermore, as the switch supports Port Aggregation (Port Trunk) capability and up to 8 groups, it is also great to build up switch-to-switch connectivity. For detail information, please refer to the console and web management section.
Module Installation
The two slide-in slots on the rear panel are purposed for installing optional modules. They can be used as a network backbone or connect to a server. Follow the steps as described to install a module:
1. Power off the switch.
2. Removing the two screws on the face plate of slide-in slot with a flat-head screwdriver.
3. Push the module gently into the slot along the slide tracks.
4. Ensuring that it firmly engages with the connector then tighten the screws to secure the module.
NOTE: The slide-in slots are not hot swappable, power off the switch before installing
modules.

2.4 Stack Installation

There are two RJ-45 ports on the front panel for proprietary management stack. Only straight-through UTP/STP cable can be used.
Plug one end of the cable in the IN port and the other end to the OUT port of next device. Repeat the step for every device in the stack cluster, then ending at last switch.
NOTE:Before management stacking, be sure of every device uses a unique SWITCH
ID, or the management stack will not work. The switch with least SWITCH ID will become Master. Only Master switchs management interface (console, telnet, web and SNMP) is accessible.
Please find the following picture for sample connection. Please note the stack port is for management only. For data packets to be transmitted between switches, you will still need to connect their network ports.
