Cabling

Step 1: First, ensure the power of the switch and end devices are turned off.

<Note>

Always ensure that the power is off before any installation.

Step 2: Prepare cable with corresponding connectors for each type of port in use.

Step 3: Consult the previous section for cabling requirements based on connectors and

speed.

Step 4: Connect one end of the cable to the switch and the other end to a desired

device.
Step 5: Once the connections between two end devices are made successfully, turn on

the power and the switch is operational.
