2 Installation

Please select the appropriate installation method according to the actual needs.

Note

If screws are not provided in the package, prepare them yourself.

Before You Start

• Ensure that the desktop, wall, rack, or rail is stable and firm enough.
• Keep the room well-ventilated. Leave at least 10 cm of heat dissipation space around the device.
• Keep at least 1.5 cm vertical distance between two adjacent devices for rack-mounted installation.

2.1 Desktop Installation

Place the device on the desk.

2.2 Wall-Mounted Installation

Steps

1. Check the distance between the two hanging holes on the rear cover of the device.
2. Insert two M4 screws into the wall.

Note

• Ensure that the distance between the two screws equals to the distance between the two hanging holes.

• Set aside at least 4 mm of the screw bodies outside the wall.

• Align the hanging holes with the screws, and hang the device on the screws.

1. Press the DIN rail-mounted unit in quickly.

3 Grounding

3.1 Connect Grounding Cable

Grounding is used to quickly release overvoltage and overcurrent induced by lightening on the device, and to protect personal safety. Select an appropriate grounding method according to the installation conditions.

Note

The grounding terminal is on the rear panel or side panel of the device. The actual device prevails.

3.1.1 With Grounding Bar

If a grounding bar is available at the installation site, follow the steps below.

Steps

1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the binding post on the grounding bar.
2. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal of the device and tighten the screw.

Figure 3-1 Grounding with Grounding Bar

3.1.2 Without Grounding Bar

If there is no grounding bar but the earth is nearby and the grounding body is allowed to be buried, follow the steps below.

Steps

1. Bury an angle steel or steel pipe ( ≥ 0.5 m) into the earth.
2. Weld one end of the grounding cable to the angle steel or steel pipe and embalm the welding point via electroplating or coating.
3. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding terminal.

Figure 3-3 RJ45 Port Connection

3.3 Connect SFP Optical Module

Connecting an SFP optical module is supported when the device has a fiber optical port or a combo interface.

Note

A combo interface consists of a RJ45 port and a fiber optical port. You can use either the RJ45 port or the fiber optical port of a combo interface, but cannot use them at the same time.

• When connected to a network cable, the combo interface is a RJ45 port.
• When plugged into with an optical module and connected to an optical fiber, the combo interface functions as a fiber optical port.
• When connected to both a network cable and an optical fiber, the combo interface works as a fiber optical port.

Steps

Caution

• Single-Mode optical module needs to be paired for use.
• Do not bend an optical fiber (curvature radius ≥ 10 cm) overly.

• Do not look directly at an optical fiber connector because the laser generated is harmful to eyes.

• Connect the two paired SFP optical modules with an optical fiber.

• Hold the SFP optical module from one side, and smoothly plug it into the device along the SFP port slot until the optical module and the device are closely attached.

• After powering on the device, check the status of the optical port indicator.

• If the indicator is lit, the link is connected.

• If the indicator is unlit, the link is disconnected.

• Check the line, and make sure that the peer device has been enabled.

4 Device Powering-On

Please use the attached power adapter or power cord to power on the device.

Before powering on your device, make sure that:

• The operating power supply is compliant with rated input standard.
• Port cables and grounding cables are correctly connected.
• If there is outdoor cabling, connect a lightning rod and a lightening arrester to the cable.

Caution

Power supply lines and strong current wires cannot be wired together, otherwise PDs or switch ports will be burnt.
