On: Running at 10/100/1000 Mbps
O: No device is linked to the corresponding port
Quick ashing: Transmitting/receiving data
Slow ashing: Loop is detected on the corresponding port
On: The switch will monitor and address loop-related
issues within the network structure to prevent disruptions
caused by redundant pathing
O: (default) The switch will not try to monitor or address
loop-related issues

Installation
Desktop:
Attach the supplied feet to the bottom of the switch to prevent it from slipping
when placed on a desktop.
Note: For detailed information, please refer
to the Wall Mounting Guide on the device’s
support page.
Wall-mounting:
Drill two holes on the wall according to the mounting holes on the bottom of
the switch, then secure the switch to the wall with two suitable screws (not
provided).

Q1. The Power LED is not lit.
Q2. The Link/Act LED is not lit when a device is connected
to the corresponding port.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The Power LED should be lit when the power system is working
normally. If the Power LED is not lit, check as follows:
A1:
Make sure the power adapter is connected to the switch with
power source properly.
A2
: Make sure the voltage of the power supply meets the requirements
of the input voltage of the switch.
A3:
Make sure the power source is ON.
It is recommended that you check the following items:
A1:
Make sure that the cable connectors are rmly plugged into the
switch and the device.
A2:
Make sure the connected device is turned on and works normally.
A3:
The cable must be less than 100 meters long (328 feet).
Q3. Why does the switch fail to detect and block a loop
from occurring in the network topology when Loop
Prevention is enabled?
A:
When this switch is connected to other non-terminal devices, such
as switches of other brands, and the device is incapable of correctly
processing or forwarding loop detection packets, the Loop
Prevention function will be limited. It is recommended to connect
the terminal devices directly to this switch or connect non-terminal
devices with complete forwarding capability to this switch.
