4. Configuración

4.1 Conexión do interruptor

  1. Conexión de alimentación: Connect the included power adapter to the switch's power input port and then plug it into a standard electrical outlet. The power indicator light on the switch will illuminate.
  2. Conexión do dispositivo de rede: Connect your network devices (e.g., IP cameras, access points, computers) to the switch's Ethernet ports using standard Ethernet cables. For PoE-powered devices, connect them to any of the 8 PoE+ ports. The switch will automatically detect and provide power if the device is PoE compliant.
  3. Conexión de enlace ascendente: Use one of the two uplink ports to connect the switch to your router, modem, or main network infrastructure.

4.2 Using Extend Mode

The FoMaKo P1000 features an 'Extend' mode switch. When enabled, this mode allows for Power over Ethernet (PoE) and data transmission over longer distances (up to 250 meters) on the PoE ports. Note that enabling Extend mode will reduce the data transfer speed on the affected ports to 10Mbps.

  • To enable Extend mode, locate the 'EXTEND' switch on the front panel and slide it to the 'ON' position.
  • To disable Extend mode and restore full Gigabit speed (up to 100m), slide the switch to the 'OFF' position.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

5.1 Funcionalidade de alimentación a través de Ethernet (PoE)

The P1000 switch automatically detects and supplies power to IEEE 802.3af/at compliant devices connected to its PoE ports. No manual configuration is required for basic PoE operation. The switch provides up to 30W per port, with a total power budget of 120W across all 8 PoE+ ports.

5.2 Xestión intelixente de enerxía

The switch incorporates intelligent power management to prevent overload. If the total power consumption of connected PoE devices exceeds 120W, the switch will automatically prioritize power delivery and shut down power to lower-priority ports to protect the system. It also dynamically adjusts power levels based on device requirements.

5.4 Funcionamento silencioso

The fanless design of the P1000 switch ensures completely silent operation, making it suitable for quiet environments such as offices, homes, or studios where fan noise would be disruptive.

6. Mantemento

  • Limpeza: Usa un pano suave e seco para limpar o exterior do interruptor. Non empregues produtos de limpeza líquidos nin en aerosol.
  • Ventilación: Ensure the switch is placed in a well-ventilated area. Do not block the ventilation holes on the sides of the device.
  • Ambiente: Operate the switch within the recommended temperature and humidity ranges specified in the technical specifications. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or moisture.
  • Xestión de cables Keep network cables organized to prevent strain on ports and ensure proper airflow.

7 Solución de problemas

If you encounter issues with your FoMaKo P1000 switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

  • Sen enerxía: Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and a working electrical outlet. Check if the power indicator light on the switch is on.
  • Sen conexión de rede: Verify that Ethernet cables are securely connected to both the switch and the connected devices. Check the link/activity LEDs on the switch ports; they should be lit or blinking. Ensure the uplink port is connected to a functional network device (router/modem).
  • O dispositivo PoE non se acende: Confirm that the connected device is PoE compliant (IEEE 802.3af/at). Check the PoE status LED for the specific port. If the device is unresponsive, the PoE Auto Recovery feature may automatically reboot it. If not, try disconnecting and reconnecting the device, or power cycling the switch. Ensure the total PoE budget of 120W is not exceeded.
  • Velocidade de rede lenta: If you are using Extend Mode, note that speeds are reduced to 10Mbps. If not in Extend Mode, check cable quality and length. Ensure all devices support Gigabit Ethernet for optimal performance.
