3. Iestatīšana un instalēšana

The NICGIGA 6 Port 2.5G Unmanaged Ethernet Switch is designed for simple plug-and-play installation. No software configuration is required.

3.1 Slēdža pievienošana

1. Pievienojiet strāvu: Plug the provided 12V DC power adapter into the switch's power input port and then into a standard electrical outlet. The PWR LED should illuminate.
2. Pievienojiet ierīces:
   • For RJ45 devices (e.g., computers, NAS, WiFi 6 APs): Connect standard Ethernet cables from your devices to any of the 2.5G RJ45 ports (1-4) on the switch.
   • For SFP+ devices (e.g., servers, other switches): Insert compatible SFP/SFP+ modules (not included) into the 10G SFP+ ports (5-6) and connect appropriate fiber optic or DAC cables to your devices.
3. Pārbaudiet savienojumu: Once devices are connected, observe the Link/Act and 2.5G Link LEDs on the front panel. A solid yellow Link/Act LED indicates a successful link, and a blinking yellow LED indicates data activity. A solid green 2.5G Link LED indicates a 2.5Gbps connection.

6. Traucējummeklēšana

If you encounter issues with your NICGIGA Ethernet Switch, refer to the following troubleshooting steps:

6.1 Nav jaudas

• Pārbaudiet strāvas savienojumu: Pārliecinieties, vai strāvas adapteris ir droši pievienots slēdzim un darbojošai elektrotīkla kontaktligzdai.
• Pārbaudiet kontaktligzdu: Pārbaudiet elektrības kontaktligzdu ar citu ierīci, lai pārliecinātos, ka tā piegādā strāvu.
• Strāvas adapteris: Ensure you are using the correct 12V DC power adapter supplied with the switch.

6.2 No Link Light

• Kabeļa savienojums: Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the switch port and the connected device.
• Kabeļa integritāte: Test the Ethernet cable with another device or replace it to rule out a faulty cable.
• Ierīces statuss: Pārliecinieties, vai pievienotā ierīce (piemēram, dators, maršrutētājs) ir ieslēgta un vai tās tīkla adapteris ir iespējots.
• Portu saderība: While the RJ45 ports are adaptive, ensure the connected device's network card is functioning correctly. For SFP+ ports, verify that the SFP/SFP+ module and cable are compatible and correctly installed.

6.3 Lēns tīkla ātrums

• Kabeļa kvalitāte: Use high-quality Ethernet cables (Cat5e or higher for Gigabit, Cat6a or higher for 2.5G/10G) to ensure optimal performance.
• Ierīces iespējas: Verify that your connected devices (network cards, NAS, router) support 2.5G or 10G speeds. The 2.5G Link LED should be green for 2.5Gbps connections on RJ45 ports.
• Tīkla pārslodze: High network traffic from other devices might affect overall speed.
• SFP+ modulis: For SFP+ ports, ensure the installed module supports the desired speed (1G, 2.5G, or 10G).
