LANCOM Installation Guide Switches – Installation
Ensure that the device has sufficient ventilation to prevent damage
from excessive heat build-up.
A LAN connection – Connect the network devices to the ports of the
LANCOM switch by means of a suitable twisted-pair cable (TP cable).
The connectors automatically detect the available data transfer speeds
and the pin assignment (autosensing).
Use only standard TP cables of category CAT 5 or better with a
maximum length of 100 m to ensure the best possible data transfer.
Crossover cables can be used thanks to the auto-sensing function.
A Supply power – Supply power to the device by means of the IEC power
cable and/or an external power supply unit (model dependent).
A Ready for operation? – After a brief self-test, the power or system LED
lights up continuously. Green Link/Act LEDs show which LAN connec-
tors are used for a connection.
