5. Impostazione

5.1. Posizionamento e montaggio

• Montaggio su rack: Fissare le staffe di montaggio a rack fornite ai lati dello switch utilizzando le viti incluse. Fissare lo switch a un rack standard da 19 pollici.
• Posizionamento sul desktop: If not rack-mounting, place the switch on a flat, stable surface. Ensure adequate space around the switch for proper ventilation.
• Ambiente: Position the switch in a clean, dry, and temperature-controlled environment, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

5.2. Collegamento elettrico

1. Ensure the power switch (if present) is in the OFF position.
2. Connect one end of the AC power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the switch.
3. Connect the other end of the AC power cord to a grounded electrical outlet.

5.3. Connessioni di rete

1. Connecting End Devices: Connect Ethernet cables from your computers, IP phones, wireless access points, or other network devices to the RJ-45 ports on the front panel.
2. Connessioni in salita: Insert appropriate SFP transceivers into the SFP uplink ports. Connect fiber optic or copper cables from the SFP transceivers to your core network devices (e.g., routers, distribution switches).

5.4. Initial Configuration (Console Access)

For initial setup and advanced configuration, you may need to access the switch's command-line interface (CLI) via the console port.

1. Connect a console cable (typically RJ-45 to DB-9 serial) from the switch's console port to the serial port of a computer.
2. Open a terminal emulation program (e.g., PuTTY, Tera Term) on your computer.
3. Configure the serial port settings: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
4. Power on the switch. The boot sequence and CLI prompt will appear in the terminal window.

6. Istruzioni per l'uso

6.1. Power On and System Status

After connecting the power, the switch will automatically power on. Observe the system LED indicators:

• LED di sistema: Indicates the overall health of the switch. A solid green light typically means the system is operating normally.
• LED RPS: Indicates the status of the Redundant Power System (if connected).

6.2. Port LED Indicators

Each Ethernet port has an associated LED that indicates its status:

• LED di collegamento/attività:
• Verde pieno: Collegamento stabilito.
• Verde lampeggiante: Attività sul porto.
• Spento: Nessun collegamento o porta disabilitati.
• PoE Status LED (if applicable):
• Verde pieno: PoE power being delivered.
• Ambra lampeggiante: PoE fault or power issue.
• Spento: No PoE power being delivered.

6.3. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)

The switch's PoE+ ports automatically detect and provide power to connected PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP phones, wireless access points, IP cameras) up to 30W per port, within the total PoE budget of 740W.

6.4. Management Interfaces

Lo switch può essere gestito tramite:

• Interfaccia della riga di comando (CLI): Accessed via the console port or Telnet/SSH over the network.

8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

Questa sezione fornisce soluzioni ai problemi più comuni che potresti riscontrare.

8.1. Nessun potere

• Verificare che il cavo di alimentazione sia collegato saldamente sia all'interruttore sia alla presa elettrica.
• Verificare che la presa elettrica funzioni collegandovi un altro dispositivo.
• Ensure the power switch (if applicable) is in the ON position.

8.2. Port Not Linking

• Controllare la connessione del cavo Ethernet a entrambe le estremità. Provare un cavo diverso.
• Verificare che il dispositivo collegato sia acceso e funzioni correttamente.
• Ensure the port on the switch is not administratively shut down (check via CLI or web interfaccia).
• For SFP ports, ensure the correct SFP transceiver is used and properly seated.

8.3. PoE Not Delivering Power

• Verify the connected device is PoE-compatible.
• Check the PoE status LED for the port. A flashing amber light indicates a fault.
• Ensure the total PoE budget of the switch (740W) is not exceeded by all connected devices.
