2  Equipment Needed 
▪  Appropriate cables for data ports 
▪  Personal computer or laptop 
 
3  Select a Location 
▪  Installation: DIN rail, wall mount, rack, or cabinet.  
▪  Identify a power source within 6 ft. (1.8m). 
▪  Choose a dry area with ambient temperature 
between -10 and 60°C (14 and 140ºF). 
▪  Be sure there is adequate airflow. 
▪  Keep the switch at least 6 ft. (1.83m) away from 
the nearest source of electromagnetic noise, such 
as a photocopy machine. 
▪  Switch is designed for use in Pollution Degree 2 
Environment. 
 
4  Connect to the Data Ports 
Depending on the model, your switch can have the 
following ports: 
▪  16 10/100Base-TX ports 
▪  0 or 2 Gigabit ports 
10/100Base-TX Ports 
These ports come in 10/100Base-TX interfaces. They 
can connect to devices such as an IP surveillance 
camera or a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) 
phone. 
Gigabit Ports 
Some switch models have 10/100/1000Base-TX 
ports with no Gigabit fiber ports, or combo 
10/100/1000Base-TX with 1000Base-SX/LX/BX 
ports.  
Combo ports on the bottom face operate in 
“either/or” fashion. This means that attaching to a 1 
Gbps combo port renders the equivalent partner 
combo port unavailable.
