3.2.2 Connect to the computers or a LAN

You can use Ethernet cable to connect computers, hubs and other switches to

the switch ports. Either crossover or straight-through Ethernet cable can apply

for connecting these devices.

Use a twisted-pair Category 5 Ethernet cable to connect the

1000BASE-T port. Otherwise, the link speed can not reach

1Gbps.

3.2.3 Attach the RPS module

Connect your Redundant Power Supply (RPS) module (optional) to the RPS jack on

the rear panel of the switch and make sure the other end of the RPS is connected to

the power cord. Connect to the power cord to a grounded power outlet.

3.2.4 Attach the power adapter

1. Connect the AC power cord to the POWER receptacle on the back of the switch

and plug the other end of the power cord into a wall outlet or a power strip.

2. Check the front LED indicators with the description in Table 4. If the LEDs

light up as described, the switch hardware is working properly.
