NETGEAR Managed Switch - • Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning bolt might expose you to electrical shock. Only a trained service technician should service components inside these compartments. If any of the following conditions occur, unplug the product from the electrical outlet and replace the part or contact your trained service provider: - The power cable, extension cable, or plug is damaged. - An object has fallen into the product.
NETGEAR Managed Switch • Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings limit for the extension cable or power strip. • To help protect your system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
2. Hardware Installation 2 This chapter explains how to install the hardware for the managed switches. Package Contents Each switch is packed and shipped separately.
NETGEAR Managed Switch You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD): 1. When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, leave it in the antistatic package until you are ready to install it. Just before unwrapping the antistatic package, discharge static electricity from your body. 2. Before moving a sensitive component, place it in an antistatic container or package. 3. Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area.
NETGEAR Managed Switch For more information, see Connect to Power and Check the LEDs on page 20. Select a Location The switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch (48.26-centimeter) rack, wall mounted, or left freestanding (placed on a tabletop). The site where you install the switch might greatly affect its performance. Before installing the switch or switches, make sure that the chosen installation location meets the following site requirements. Table 2.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Install the Switch You can install the switch on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch rack. Install the Switch on a Flat Surface The switch ships with four self-adhesive rubber footpads. Stick one rubber footpad on each of the four concave spaces on the bottom of the switch. The rubber footpads cushion the switch against shock and vibrations. Install the Switch in a Rack Note: The M4100-D10-PoE is not rack mountable.
NETGEAR Managed Switch 2. Use the provided Phillips head screws to fasten the brackets to the sides of the switch. Mounting bracket E+ G-PO 0-24 M410 3. Tighten the screws with a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver to secure each bracket. 4. Align the bracket and rack holes. Use two pan-head screws with nylon washers to fasten each bracket to the rack. 5. Tighten the screws with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver to secure the switch in the rack.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Install the Switch on a Wall (M4100-D10-PoE Only) If you install the switch on a wall in the vertical position, be sure to orient the switch as shown in the following figure. The switch should be mounted so that the ports face up or down. Do not mount the switch with the ports to the side. The exhaust air should come out the side of the switch case. Note: The switch should have a minimum of 5 inches (130 millimeters) of clearance on all sides. 1.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Install the M4100-D12G or M4100-D10-PoE Using Magnets If you use the magnets (included) to install the M4100-D12G or M4100-D10-PoE switch to a vertical metal surface, the maximum height above the floor is 75 centimeters (29.5 inches). Be sure to orient the switch as shown in the following figure. Exhaust air should come out the side of the switch case. 1. Attach the magnets to the switch using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver and 4 screws (provided). See the following figure. 2.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Check the Installation Before you apply power, perform the following checks: 1. Inspect the equipment thoroughly. 2. Verify that all cables are installed correctly. 3. Check cable routing to ensure that cables are not damaged and will not create a safety hazard. 4. Be sure that all equipment is mounted properly and securely. Connect to Power and Check the LEDs The switch does not have an on/off switch. The only way to apply or remove power is to connect or disconnect the power cord.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Note: If the PD LED on the front panel of the M4100-D12G and M4100-D12G-POE+ blinks green, port 1 is connected to a IEEE802.3af PoE device. Check the PoE device specification to make sure that it supports IEEE802.3at. If the Power LED does not light up, check that the power cable is plugged in correctly and that the power source is good. For more information, see Troubleshooting on page 24. SFP Modules SFP modules (sold separately) can be inserted directly into the switch’s ports.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Connect Equipment to the Switch You can connect devices, a Gigabit Ethernet module, and/or a console to the switch. RJ-45 Ports The switch uses Auto Uplink technology, which enables you to attach devices using either straight-through or crossover cables. Use a Category 5 (Cat 5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector. Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached device to 328 feet (100 meters).
NETGEAR Managed Switch 3. Connect the other end of the cable to a workstation or terminal. 4. If you attached a workstation, start a terminal emulation program. • Microsoft Windows users can use HyperTerminal if it comes with the Windows operating system. If it does not, you need to install another third-party terminal emulator such as Tera Term. • Macintosh users can use ZTerm. • UNIX users can use a terminal-emulator such as TIP. 5.
3. 3 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Chart The following table lists symptoms, causes, and solutions to possible problems. Table 3. Troubleshooting chart Problem Cause Solution Power LED is off. No power is received. Check the power cord connections for the switch at the switch and the connected device. Make sure that all cables used are correct and comply with Ethernet specifications. Link LED is off or intermittent. Port connection is not working.
NETGEAR Managed Switch Additional Troubleshooting Suggestions If the suggestions in Table 3 do not resolve your problem, refer to the troubleshooting suggestions in this section. • Network adapter cards: Make sure that the network adapter cards installed in the computers are in working condition and the software driver has been installed. • Configuration: If problems occur after you change the network configuration, restore the original connections.
