3.1. Port Configuration
- Porte 1-2: 10GbE BASE-T (RJ45) ports with 5-speed auto-negotiation (10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M).
- Porte 3-6: 2.5GbE (RJ45) ports with auto-negotiation (2.5G/1G/100M).
3.2. LED-indikatorer
The switch features LED indicators to display device status and port activity:
- Power LED: Angiver enhedens strømstatus.
- Portlink/aktivitets-LED'er: Located on each RJ45 port.
- 10GbE Ports (1-2): Green for 10GbE link, Amber for 2.5G/1G link. Blinking indicates activity.
- 2.5GbE Ports (3-6): Green for 2.5GbE link, Amber for 1G/100M link. Blinking indicates activity.
4. Opsætning
The QSW-2104-2T-A-US is an unmanaged switch, designed for plug-and-play operation. No software configuration is required.
- Placering: Place the switch on a stable, flat surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device. Avoid placing it near heat sources or in enclosed spaces.
- Tilslut strøm: Connect the provided power adapter to the "DC in" port on the switch and then to a power outlet. The Power LED will illuminate.
- Tilslut netværksenheder:
- Connect your 10GbE-capable devices (e.g., NAS, workstation) to ports 1 or 2 using Cat 6a or better Ethernet cables for optimal performance.
- Connect your 2.5GbE or standard Gigabit Ethernet devices (e.g., computers, printers, access points) to ports 3, 4, 5, or 6 using Cat 5e or better Ethernet cables.
The switch will automatically detect the speed of the connected devices and establish a link. The corresponding port Link/Activity LED will light up.

5. Betjeningsvejledning
Once connected, the QSW-2104-2T-A-US operates automatically. It functions as a layer 2 unmanaged switch, forwarding Ethernet frames between connected devices based on MAC addresses.
5.1. Auto-Negotiation
Each port on the switch supports auto-negotiation, which automatically detects the speed and duplex mode of the connected device. This ensures compatibility with various Ethernet standards (100Mbps, 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, 10Gbps) without manual configuration.
5.2. Fanless Design
The switch features a fanless design for silent operation, making it suitable for quiet environments such as homes and offices.
6. Vedligeholdelse
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your QSW-2104-2T-A-US switch, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Rensning: Brug en blød, tør klud til at rengøre ydersiden af kontakten. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller rengøringsmidler på sprayform.
- Ventilation: Ensure that the ventilation holes on the sides of the switch are not obstructed. Proper airflow helps dissipate heat.
- Kabelstyring: Organize network cables to prevent strain on ports and to maintain a tidy setup.
- Strømforsyning: Brug kun den strømforsyning, der følger med enheden.
7. Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your QSW-2104-2T-A-US switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Ingen strøm:
- Check if the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet.
- Kontroller, at stikkontakten fungerer.
- No Link Light on Port:
- Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the switch port and the connected device.
- Prøv et andet Ethernet-kabel.
- Tilslut enheden til en anden port på switchen.
- Verify that the connected device is powered on and its network adapter is functioning correctly.
- Langsom netværkshastighed:
- Ensure you are using appropriate Ethernet cables (Cat 6a or better for 10GbE, Cat 5e or better for 2.5GbE).
- Check the Link/Activity LED color to confirm the negotiated speed (Green for 10GbE/2.5GbE, Amber for lower speeds).
- Verify that the connected devices' network adapters support the desired speeds.
- Intermitterende forbindelse:
- Ensure all cable connections are firm and not loose.
- Avoid moving the switch frequently once set up, as this can sometimes dislodge cables.
- Consider restarting the switch by unplugging and replugging the power adapter.
