Install Your Switch

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

Note

The following figures are for your reference only.

Before You Start

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

▷ Desktop Placement

Place the device on the desk.

▷ Wall-Mounted Installation

Steps

1. Check the distance between the two hanging holes at the bottom of the device.
2. Insert two self-prepared M4 screws into the wall.
3. Align the hanging holes with screws, and hang the device on the screws.

i Note

• The load-bearing capacity of the wall should be 3 times more than the weight of the device.
• Ensure that the distance between the two screws equals tothedistancebetweenthetwohangingholes.
• Set aside at least 4 mm of the screw bodies outside the wall.

▷ Rack-Mounted Installation

Steps

1. Check the grounding and stability of the rack.
2. Use M3 or M4 screws provided in the package to fix the two L-shaped brackets to both sides of the device.

i Note

The number of screws provided for fixing L-shaped brackets to the device varies with device models.

1. Fix two self-prepared M5 or M6 nuts to the rear side of the rack on both sides respectively.

1. Place the switch against the rack so that the holes on the L-shaped brackets are aligned with the holes where the nuts have been fixed.
2. Fix the brackets to the front side of the rack with two self-prepared M5 or M6 screws on both sides respectively to stably install your device.

③ Ground Your Switch

Grounding is used to quickly release overvoltage and overcurrent induced by lightening for the switch, and to protect personal safety.
Select an appropriate grounding method according to your needs.

▷ 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 device's grounding terminal and fix the screw.

▷ 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 device's grounding terminal.

④ Connect Your Switch to a Peer

▷ RJ45 Port

Use a network cable to connect the device to the RJ45 port of a peer device such as the IP camera (IPC), network video recorder (NVR), switch, etc.

▷ SFP Fiber Optical Port

If the device has a fiber optical port or a combo, connect the device to a peer device through an optical fiber connecting optical modules plugged into fiber optical ports respectively.

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

Covics

• Single-mode optical modules need to be paired.
• Do not bend an optical fiber (curvature radius ≥ 10 cm) overly.
• Do not look directly at an optical fiber connector as laser is harmful to eyes.

Steps

1. Connect the two paired SFP optical modules with an optical fiber.
2. Hold the SFP optical module from one side, and smoothly plug it into the switch along with the SFP port slot until the optical module and the switch are closely attached.
3. After powering your switch on, check the status of the LINK/ACT indicator.
4. If the indicator is lit, the link is connected.
5. If the indicator is unlit, the link is disconnected. Check the line, and make sure the peer device has been started.

Power Your Switch On

Please use the attached power cord (and power adapter, if any) in package to power on the device. Be Devicering your switch on, make sure that:

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

Caution

For PoE switches, power cables and network cables cannot be wired together, otherwise the PD or switch ports will be burnt.
