Installation

Installation is easy-- simply connect the cables and the power cord.

The system is ready, and you can use all the features.

Connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one of

the RJ-45 connectors into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the

other RJ-45 connector into the station’s network adapter. Power on

the switch and then the system is ready.

All ports could be used to connect with another switch. As all the

ports support auto-uplink (MDI / MDI-X) function, user can choose to

use a straight cable or a crossover cable to make a switch-to-switch

connection.
