If the LED is off, but the Power Adapter OK LED is on, there may be a problem with the Switch's internal power supply. Refer to the Problem Solving section. 2 Gigabit (GbE) and 10/100 Port Status LEDs Blue (1000 Mbps) / Green (100 Mbps link) / Yellow (10 Mbps link) If the LED is on, the link between the port and the next piece of equipment is OK. If the LED is flashing, the link is OK and data is being transmitted or received. If the LED is off, nothing is connected or the connected device is turned off, or there is a problem with the connection (refer to the Problem Solving section). 3 Duplex LEDs Yellow If the LED is lit, the port is in full duplex mode. If the LED is off, the port is in half duplex mode. 4 Power Adapter Socket Only use the power adapter that is supplied with the Switch. 5 Power Adapter OK LED Green Indicates that the power adapter is supplying power to the Switch. If the LED is off, there may be a problem with the power adapter or adapter cable (refer to the Problem Solving section) 6 Gigabit (GbE) Port 7 10/100 Ports Use suitable TP cable with RJ-45 connectors. You can connect your Switch to a workstation, or any other piece of equipment that has 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connectivity (all ports), or 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/ 1000BASE-T connectivity (Gigabit Port only). Each 10/100 Port is capable of autosensing for 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps operation. The Gigabit Port is capable of autosensing for 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps operation. All ports have an automatic MDI/MDIX feature, which means either straight-through or crossover cable can be used to connect to any port. WARNING: RJ-45 ports. These are shielded RJ-45 data sockets. They cannot be used as standard traditional telephone sockets, or to connect the unit to a traditional PBX or public telephone network. Only connect RJ-45 data connectors, network telephony systems, or network telephones to these sockets. Either shielded or unshielded data cables with shielded or unshielded jacks can be connected to these data sockets. VORSICHT: RJ-45-Portes. Diese Portes sind geschützte Datensteckdosen. Sie dürfen weder wie normale traditionelle Telefonsteckdosen noch für die Verbindung der Einheit mit einem traditionellenm privatenm oder öffentlichenm Telefonnetzwerk gebraucht werden. Nur RJ-45- Datenansclußhlüsse, Telefonnetzsysteme oder Netztelefone an diese Steckdosen anschließen. Entweder geschützte oder ungeschützte Buchsen dürfen an diese Datensteckdosen angeschlossen werden. AVERTISSEMENT : Prises RJ-45 blindées. Ces prises ne peuvent servir comme prises téléphone standard et ne permettent pas la connexion de l'appareil à un système PBX ni à un réseau téléphonique public. N'y branchez que des prises RJ-45 mâles adaptées, ou des systèmes de réseaux téléphoniques. Il est possible d'y brancher des câbles blindés ou non comportant des prises de type Jack (blindées ou non).
