2. Produktfunktioner

The MokerLink 4-Port Gigabit PoE Switch offers a range of features designed for robust network performance:

• 6 Gigabit-porte: Includes 4 Gigabit PoE ports, 1 Gigabit Uplink port, and 1 Gigabit SFP port, all supporting 100/1000Mbps speeds for increased bandwidth. The SFP port enables optical fiber connections for distances exceeding 100 meters.
• Høj PoE-strøm: Provides a maximum of 75W total power output, with each PoE port supporting up to 30W (IEEE 802.3af/at compliant). Features a built-in power supply for simplified installation. Note: This switch does not support passive 24V PoE.
• Plug & Play med AI-detektion: Requires no configuration; simply connect the power cord and Ethernet cables. AI intelligent detection automatically monitors port data and restarts devices if a disconnection is detected, ensuring stable operation.
• QoS and VLAN Isolation: Ports 1-2 support Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize critical network traffic and prevent data loss during congestion. Ports 1-4 support VLAN isolation, segmenting traffic from each other while allowing communication with uplink ports 5-6 to reduce network congestion.
• Holdbart design: Features a fanless metal housing for quiet operation and enhanced durability. Includes 4KV lightning protection.
• Alsidige applikationer: Suitable for IP cameras, Wireless Access Points, computer networks, and various other PoE-powered devices.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

5.1 LED-indikatorer

Kontakten har LED-indikatorer, der giver statusinformation:

• PWR (strømindikator):
  • Lighting: Switch is powered on.
  • Un-Light: No power.
• VLAN (VLAN Indication):
  • Lighting: Extend Mode On.
  • Un-Light: Extend Mode Off.
• Portstatus LED'er: (Typically located above each port)
  • Solid Green: Link established.
  • Flashing Green: Data activity.
  • Solid Amber (PoE ports): PoE power being supplied.

5.2 PoE Watchdog (AI Detection)

The integrated PoE Watchdog function continuously monitors the status of connected PoE devices. If a device becomes unresponsive or disconnects, the switch will automatically restart the corresponding port to restore functionality, ensuring continuous operation without manual intervention.

5.3 Servicekvalitet (QoS)

Ports 1 and 2 support QoS functionality. Connecting important network devices to these ports ensures that their data traffic receives priority. This helps prevent data loss and maintains performance for critical applications, even during periods of high network congestion.

5.4 Port-based VLAN Isolation

The switch features a DIP switch for VLAN mode. When VLAN mode is enabled, PoE ports 1-4 are isolated from each other, meaning devices connected to these ports cannot directly communicate with each other. However, all isolated ports can still communicate with the uplink ports (5-6). This feature helps to prevent multicast or broadcast storms and enhances network security by segmenting traffic.

6. Vedligeholdelse

The MokerLink PoE Switch is designed for low maintenance due to its fanless and durable metal housing.

• Rensning: Hold enheden ren og fri for støv. Brug en blød, tør klud til rengøring. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller rengøringsmidler på sprayform.
• Miljø: Ensure the switch operates within its specified temperature range of -10°C to +55°C. Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures or humidity.
• Ventilation: Although fanless, ensure adequate airflow around the device to prevent heat buildup.

7. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your MokerLink PoE Switch, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Ingen strøm: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet. Check the PWR LED indicator.
• Ingen forbindelse/forbindelse: Verify that Ethernet cables are properly connected to both the switch and the network device. Check the port status LEDs. Try a different cable or port.
• PoE-enhed tænder ikke: Confirm that your device is IEEE 802.3af/at compliant. Ensure the cable length is within specifications. The PoE Watchdog feature should automatically attempt to restart the port if a device becomes unresponsive.
• Network Congestion/Performance Issues: If QoS is enabled, ensure critical devices are connected to ports 1-2. If VLAN isolation is active, ensure devices are communicating with the uplink ports as intended.
• Device Unresponsive After Power Failure: In some cases, after a power outage, the PoE function may not immediately resume. Unplug the switch's power cable for one minute, then plug it back in to perform a power cycle.
