Installation Requirements

Before the installation, please make sure that you have prepared the following:

Standard-sized, 19-inch-wide rack with a minimum of 1U height available.

Category 5e or higher RJ45 Ethernet cables, and fiber optical cables. M6 screws and cage nuts.
Phillips screwdriver.

ESD bracelet, ESD gloves, or ESD clothing.
Cable ties, marker, and utility knife.

Site Environment

Make sure that the operating temperature is maintained within 0°C to 45°C.
Make sure that the operating humidity is maintained within 10% to 95%.

Make sure that the installation site is well-ventilated to ensure sufficient airflow around the switch.
Make sure that the installation site is free of dust, leaks, drips, heavy condensation, and moisture.

Make sure that the rack is properly grounded.
Avoid installing the equipment against the wall to facilitate heat dissipation and maintenance, and make sure that there is adequate space around its four sides.

Mounting the Switch

Desk Mounting

Attach four rubber pads to the switch bottom.
Place the switch on a stable desk.

Rack Mounting

Secure the mounting brackets to the two sides of the switch with twelve M4 screws.

Attach the switch to the rack using self-provided M6 screws and cage nuts.

Grounding the Switch

Connect one end of the grounding cable to a proper earth ground, such as the rack in which the switch is mounted.
Secure the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding point on the switch back panel with the washer and the screw.

Connecting the SFP28 Ports

Plug the compatible SFP28 transceiver into the SFP28 port.
Connect a fiber optic cable to the transceiver, then connect the other end of the cable to another fiber device.

Connecting the QSFP+ Ports

Plug the compatible QSFP+ transceiver into the QSFP port.
Connect a fiber optic cable to the transceiver, then connect the other end of the cable to another fiber device.

Connecting the RJ45 Ports

Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port of a computer, printer, network storage, or other network devices.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port of the switch.

Connecting the ETH Port

Connect one end of the supplied network cable to a computer.
Connect the other end of the cable to the ETH port on the front of the switch.

Connecting the Console Port

Insert the RJ45 connector of the console cable into the console port on the front of the switch.
Connect the other end of the console cable to the RS-232 serial port on the computer.

Connecting the Power

Plug the AC power cord into the power port on the back of the switch.
Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source.

Configuring the Switch

Configuring the Switch Using the Web-Based Interface

Step 1: Connect the computer to any Ethernet port of the switch using the network cable.
Step 2: Set the IP address of the computer to 192.168.1.x (“x” is any number from 2 to 254).

Step 3: Open a browser, type http://192.168.1.1, and enter the default username and password, admin/admin.
Step 4: Click LOGIN to open the web-based configuration page.

Configuring the Switch Using the Console Port

Step 1: Connect a computer to the switch’s console port using the supplied console cable.
Step 2: Start the terminal simulation software, such as HyperTermina, on the computer.
Step 3: Set the parameters of the HyperTerminal: Baud rate to 115200, Data bits to 8,

Parity to None, and Stop bits to 1.

Step 4: After setting the parameters, click Connect to enter.

Troubleshooting

Configuration Terminal Shows No Display or Garbled Text

Check the power supply status.
Check whether the console cable is undamaged and securely connected.

Check whether the connected console port is consistent with the console port configured in HyperTerminal.
Check terminal settings (baud rate to 115200, data bits to 8, no parity, stop bit to 1).

Newly-Inserted Expansion Module Fails to Power On

Check whether the module is properly inserted.

Optical Port Fails to Link

Check whether the fiber TX and RX connections are correct.

Check whether the interconnected optical modules use the same wavelength.
Check whether the actual link distance does not exceed the optical module’s maximum supported distance.
Check whether the port speeds match on both ends.

Check whether the fiber type meets the transmission requirements.
Check whether the port rate mode is properly configured for multi-rate ports.

If the above issues persist, please contact technical support for help.
