No loop detection history. Right Orange Shutting down by loop detection. Light Not shutting down by loop detection. Fig. 1-4 Port LED...
1.4.3. Loop detection function Turns on the port LED with an orange light when a loop occurs in the corresponding port. At this time, the relevant port automatically shuts down (default setting: 60 sec.) to prevent loop from occurring. If the loop is still not removed, the port will shut down again.
1.5. LED Display Change Button 1.5.1. Setting LED Base Mode You can select display of LEDs in this Switching Hub from two types: Status mode and Eco mode. The mode selected at system start-up is called the base mode. The base mode can be switched by keeping pressing the LED display switch button for more than 3 seconds.
Page 20
If the port LED display mode is switched to other than STATUS/ECO and then no operation is executed for more than 1 minute, the mode automatically shifts to the base mode.
2. Installation Switch-M48eG can be installed to a stainless steel product, a 19-inch rack, or on the wall. 2.1. Mounting to 19-inch Rack Take out the supplied 2 mounting brackets (for 19-inch rack) and 8 screws (for fixing the main unit and the mounting bracket), and fix the brackets to the main unit by tightening screws into 4 holes located at the sides.
3. Connection 3.1. Connection Using a Twisted Pair Port Connection Cable Use a CAT5E or higher twisted pair cable with 8P8C RJ45 modular plug. Network Configuration 100 m or shorter 100 m 100 m or shorter or shorter Fig.
3.2. Connection Using an SFP Extension Slot 1000BASE-SX: 550 m or shorter / 1000BASE-LX: 10 km or shorter 100 m 100 m or shorter or shorter Fig. 3-2 Example of Optical Fiber Cable Connection Plugging an SFP module (optional) into an SFP extension slot enables an optical fiber connection.
3.3. Connection to Power Connect the supplied power code to the power port of this Switching Hub and connect the other end into an electric outlet. This Switching Hub operates at 100-240 V (50/60 Hz). This Switching Hub does not have a power ON/OFF switch. Plugging the power cord turns on this Switching Hub's power and the operation starts.
4. Configuration Upon power on, this Switching Hub starts working as a switching hub. To use the SNMP management functionality or other unique functions, you need to configure the Switching Hub using a console port, Telnet, or SSH. In this chapter, the configuration of this Switching Hub is explained. Note: You need to configure an IP address to access this Switching Hub via Telnet or SSH.
4.2. Login If you access the Switching Hub via the console port, a screen shown in Fig. 4-2-1 appears. If this screen does not appear, press Enter key to refresh the display or confirm that there is no error in configuration of communication mode and others.
