Compliance Information
UL Listed
C-UL Listed (Canada)
CISPR/EN55022 Class A
FCC Regulations
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 the user’s own expense.
Canadian Regulations
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise for digital apparatus set out on
the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
European Regulations
Warning
This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which
case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

INDICATORS
Power Steady green LED indicates normal
operation.
(CX, FL, RJ) RX (Receive) Flashing green LED indicates port
is receiving data.
(CX, FL) Link Steady green LED indicates port is receiving
link signal.
Coll(ision) Flashing green LED indicates port is in a
collision state. NOTE: Steady illumination
indicates an excessive number of collisions
are occurring on the port.
Jab(ber) Steady green LED indicates a jabber
condition.
SWITCH
Coax Config(uration) Sets internal 10BASE-2 terminator to either
50 ohms or 0 ohms.
