POWER OPTIONS

Power Considerations

Voltage in the range of 10-36 VDC or 8-24 VAC must deliver current commensurate with 5-watt
power consumption. The recommended size for solid power conductors is 16-22 AWG; for stran-
ded conductors, use 16-18 AWG. Ground is directly connected to zero volts and the chassis is
isolated from zero volts. Input connections are reverse-polarity protected.

Network Connections

The switch employs Auto-MDIX technology so that either straight-through or crossover cables can
be used to connect to network interface adapters or to another hub.

LED Indicators

The "PWR" LED glows solid green when the switch is properly powered. To aid in troubleshoo-
ting, each port has two LEDs. The Port 1 LED labeled "L" glows solid if a link exists, flashes to
show activity and shows data rate by color: green for 100 Mbps and yellow or 10 Mbps. The LED
labeled "D" glows solid green if full-duplex is on or is unlit when that port is operating in half-
duplex mode. The LEDs of Ports 2-5 are unlabeled but work the same.
