LED Indicators:
Comprehensive LED indicators display the status of the switch and the network (see the LED Indicators
chapter below).
100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet PoE Ports (Port 1~24):
These ports are PoE enable ports. These PoE ports will be automatically activated when a compatible
terminal is identified, and the PoE port will supply power to the connected PoE device.
The Switch PoE function supports PoE ports priority management. When the system power is shortage with
the PD, the Switch will enforce the PoE port priority management, the lower port number will have the higher
priority than the higher port number, Port 1 > Port 2 > … > Port 24.
For legacy devices that are not yet compatible, the PoE port will not offer the power to these devices. This
feature allows users to freely and safely mix legacy and Power over Ethernet compatible devices on their
network.
These ports support network speeds of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half- and full- duplex
transfer modes. These ports also support the automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection function, providing
true “plug and play” capability. Just plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and regardless if the end
node is a NIC (Network Interface Card) or switch and hub.
1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Ports (Port 25~28):
The Switch four Gigabit twisted pair ports, supported auto negotiable 10/100/1000Mbps and auto MDI/MDIX crossover
detection function, this
function gives true “plug and play” capability, just need to plug-in the network cable to
the hub directly and don’t care if the end node is NIC (Network Interface Card) or switch and hub. These ports
can operate in half-duplex mode for 10/100Mbps and full- duplex mode for 10/100/1000Mbps.
Note: When the port was set to “Forced Mode”, the Auto MDI/MDIX will be disabled.
Combo mini-GBIC Ports (Port 25~26)
The Switch is equipped with two combo mini-GBIC ports, supported optional 1000BASE-SX/LX mini-GBIC
module. The 1000BASE-T port 25 and 26 are the same ports with the mini-GBIC port 25 and 26, when plug
in the mini-GBIC module, the device will activate mini-GBIC, and the RJ45 port will be disabled.
Reset:
The Reset button is to reset all the setting back to the factory default.
Note: Be sure that you recorded the setting of your device, else all the setting will be erased when pressing
the “Reset” button.
4.2 Rear Panel
The rear panel of the Switch consists of an AC power connector and Reset button. The following shows the
rear panel of the Switch.
