4. Instrucións de funcionamento

The D-Link GO-SW-5G is an unmanaged switch, meaning it operates automatically without requiring user configuration. Once connected as described in the Setup section, it will begin forwarding network traffic between connected devices.

• Negociación automática: The switch automatically detects the network speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (half/full) of connected devices and adjusts accordingly.
• MDI/MDIX automático: All ports support automatic MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables when connecting to other switches or hubs.
• Indicadores LED: Each port has an LED indicator on the front panel. A lit LED indicates an active link, and blinking indicates network activity.

5. Mantemento

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your D-Link GO-SW-5G switch, consider the following maintenance guidelines:

• Colocación: Coloque o interruptor nun lugar fresco e seco, lonxe da luz solar directa, de fontes de calor e de humidade excesiva. Asegúrese de que haxa unha ventilación axeitada arredor do dispositivo.
• Limpeza: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the switch. Avoid using liquid or aerosol cleaners, as they may damage the device.
• Xestión de cables Manteña os cables Ethernet ben organizados para evitar enredos e desconexións accidentais.
• Ciclo de enerxía: If you experience network issues, a simple power cycle (unplugging the power adapter for 10 seconds and then plugging it back in) can often resolve minor problems.

6 Solución de problemas

If you encounter issues with your D-Link GO-SW-5G switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Sen LED de alimentación:
  • Asegúrate de que o adaptador de corrente estea conectado correctamente tanto ao interruptor como a unha toma de corrente que funcione.
  • Verifica que a toma de corrente funcione conectando outro dispositivo.
• No Link/Activity LED for a Connected Device:
  • Check that the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the switch port and the network device.
  • Proba cun cable Ethernet diferente para descartar un cable defectuoso.
  • Asegúrate de que o dispositivo conectado estea acendido e que o seu adaptador de rede funcione correctamente.
  • Proba a conectar o dispositivo a un porto diferente do interruptor.
• Velocidade de rede lenta:
  • Verify that all connected devices and cables support Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) for optimal performance. The switch will operate at the lowest common speed.
  • Ensure your router and internet service provider (ISP) plan support the desired speeds.
  • Perform a power cycle on the switch and your router.
• Conectividade intermitente:
  • Comprobe se hai conexións de cable soltas.
