5. Configuración

5.1. Colocación e montaxe

• Montaxe en rack: Fixe os soportes de montaxe en rack fornecidos aos laterais do conmutador cos parafusos incluídos. Fixe o conmutador nun rack de equipos estándar de 19 polgadas.
• Colocación do escritorio: 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. Conexión de alimentación

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. Conexións de rede

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. Conexións de enlace ascendente: 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. Configuración inicial (acceso á consola)

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. Instrucións de funcionamento

6.1. Power On and System Status

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

• LED do 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 de ligazón/actividade:
• Verde sólido: Ligazón establecida.
• Verde intermitente: Actividade no porto.
• Desactivado: No link or port disabled.
• PoE Status LED (if applicable):
• Verde sólido: PoE power being delivered.
• Ámbar intermitente: PoE fault or power issue.
• Desactivado: No PoE power being delivered.

6.3. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
