24-Port Fast Ethernet Switch
Quick Installation Guide
M73-APO07-460
INTRODUCTION
The 24-Port Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps N-Way Switch provides you a flexible, reliable,
and affordable solution for an Ethernet network. It comes with twenty-four independent
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. Each port delivers up to 200Mbps throughput, and is
able to operate in either half or full-duplex modes.
The 24-Port Fast Ethernet 10/100Mbps N-Way Switch also possesses a N-Way auto-
negotiation function, which automatically adjusts the device for optimum operation.
“Store-and-Forward” architecture filters eliminate error packets and improve efficiency.
Plus, based on Auto-MDI/MDIX technology, you are able to use either a straight through
or a crossover Ethernet cable to connect with other devices. Moreover, the built-in
Universal Power Supply allows you to install the switch easily without any external
power adapter.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
The switch is considered as a “plug and play” network device and requires no special
setup procedures. Connect the power cord and cables correctly and you are ready to go.
Switch installation
1.
Put the switch on the appropriate location. When you install the switch, there are
two things needed to be considered:
ŸLocation: Your switch should be located in a place that is central to your
home/office space and allows all computers and networked devices connected to
your switch.
ŸPower: Remember to locate your switch near electrical outlet.
2.
3.
Power on the switch by connecting the power cord.
Verify if the power (POWER) LED is on. If the POWER LED does not light up,
check the power cord and power outlet to verify its connection. If it still remains
unlit, please contact your dealer for support.
Ethernet Port Connection
Connect user machines, servers, another switch, hub, or any other devices to the Ethernet
ports on this switch with either straight through or crossover Ethernet cables.
