Frequently Asked Questions - GP-101SF Edimax

How do I connect the Edimax GP-101SF switch?

Connect the power adapter to the switch and plug it into a power outlet. Then use Ethernet cables to connect your devices (computers, routers, etc.) to any of the 5 ports. The switch automatically detects speeds and negotiates connections.

What do the LED indicators mean?

The Power LED lights up when the switch is powered. Each port has a Link/Activity LED: solid green indicates a 1000 Mbps connection, solid amber indicates 10/100 Mbps, and blinking shows activity.

Is the GP-101SF managed or unmanaged?

It is an unmanaged switch, meaning it works plug-and-play without configuration. Simply connect devices and they will communicate.

Can I mount the switch on a wall?

Yes, the GP-101SF includes wall-mounting brackets. Use screws to attach the brackets to a wall, then slide the switch onto them.

What is the maximum cable length supported?

For Gigabit Ethernet, the maximum cable length is 100 meters (328 feet) using standard Cat5e or higher cables.

Does the switch support PoE?

No, the GP-101SF does not support Power over Ethernet. Each device must have its own power source.

How do I clean and maintain the switch?

Disconnect power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquids or solvents. Ensure ventilation slots are not blocked.

What should I do if the switch overheats?

Make sure the switch is placed in a well-ventilated area away from heat sources. Do not stack other devices on top. If overheating persists, reduce the number of connected cables or contact support.

Is the switch compatible with all Ethernet devices?

Yes, it is compatible with any device that has a standard RJ45 port, such as computers, routers, printers, game consoles, and smart TVs.

Where can I download the user manual?

The user manual can be downloaded for free from the Edimax website or from manual-sharing platforms like notice-facile.com. Search for 'Edimax GP-101SF manual'.

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Thanks for purchasing the GP-101SF Gigabit PoE Splier. The PoE Splier fully complies with IEEE 802.3af standard, and can work with all IEEE 802.3af PoE compliant PSE (Power Source Equipment) or PoE Injector, to deliver 12V, 9V or 5V DC power to the device which do not support PoE. PoE (Power over Ethernet) technology allows the exisng Ethernet infrastructure to transmit electrical power, along with data, to remote IP endpoints over the Ethernet cables, which can greatly save the cost of the external power cables. Your network can be net from PoE technology for it will ensure the normal working status of your network while keep the exisng Ethernet infrastructure secure.

Note:

GP-101SF is applicable to the device that has no external connections other than the Ethernet cables.

Please follow the steps in this guide to set up the network.

DC OUT: Connect to the power port of the Ethernet device with the provided power cable to supply the power of 5V, 9V or 12V DC

Connecng the PoE Splier

You can use GP-101SF PoE Splier with PSE or PoE Injector to expand your network to somewhere that has no power line or outlet but you wish to install a device such as APs, IP Cameras or IP Phones, etc. The following steps will tell you how to connect the PoE Splier correctly.

1. Use a CAT5 UTP cable to connect a PoE port of the PSE (e.g. PoE Switch) to the POWER+DATA IN port.
2. Choose the appropriate DC output by the Power-mode switch.

Note:

Please make sure that the output is correct, a different voltage may destroy the device.

1. Connect the LAN OUT port to the Ethernet device with CAT5 UTP cable for data transming.

2. Connect the DC OUT port to the power port of the same Ethernet device with the provided power cable.

Note:

The power of Ethernet device is suggested to be under 10W.

Now, the Ethernet device can work normally with data and power. The topology of this network is as follows.
