3. Opsætningsvejledning
The NICGIGA 5-Port 10G Ethernet Switch is designed for simple plug-and-play operation. Follow these steps to set up your switch:
- Pak switchen ud: Tag forsigtigt kontakten og alt tilbehør ud af emballagen.
- Placering:
- For desktop use, place the switch on a stable, flat surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device.
- For 19-inch rack mounting, attach the included rack ears to the sides of the switch using the provided screws, then secure it into your rack.
- Tilslut strøm: Connect the power adapter to the switch's power input port and then plug the adapter into a standard electrical outlet. The Power LED (PWR) on the front panel should illuminate.
- Tilslut netværksenheder: Connect your network devices (e.g., NAS, PC, router, server) to any of the 5 RJ45 ports on the front panel using standard Ethernet cables. The switch supports auto-negotiation, so it will automatically detect the optimal speed (10G/5G/2.5G/1000M/100M) for each connected device.
- Bekræft forbindelsen: Once a device is connected, the corresponding Link/Act LED for that port will light up. A green light indicates a 10Gbps connection, while an orange light indicates a 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, or 5Gbps connection. A blinking LED indicates data activity.

5. Vedligeholdelse
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your NICGIGA 5-Port 10G Ethernet Switch, consider the following maintenance guidelines:
- Ventilation: Ensure the switch is placed in a well-ventilated area. Do not block the cooling holes on the sides or rear of the device.
- Temperatur: Operate the switch within the recommended temperature range of 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F). Avoid placing it near heat sources.
- Rensning: Rengør regelmæssigt ydersiden af kontakten med en blød, tør klud. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller rengøringsmidler på sprayform.
- Kabelstyring: Keep network cables organized and free from kinks or excessive bending to prevent signal degradation.
- Strømforsyning: Use only the power adapter provided with the switch. Ensure the power connection is secure.
- Firmwareopdateringer: As an unmanaged switch, firmware updates are typically not required or available.
6. Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your NICGIGA 5-Port 10G Ethernet Switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
6.1 Ingen strøm
- Tjek strømtilslutning: Sørg for, at strømadapteren er korrekt tilsluttet både afbryderen og en fungerende stikkontakt.
- Bekræft stikkontakt: Test stikkontakten med en anden enhed for at bekræfte, at den fungerer.
- Strømadapter: Ensure you are using the original power adapter supplied with the switch.
6.2 No Link Light for a Connected Device
- Kabeltjek: Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the switch port and the device's network port. Try a different Ethernet cable.
- Enhedsstatus: Verify that the connected device is powered on and its network adapter is enabled.
- Port Test: Prøv at tilslutte enheden til en anden port på switchen.
- Kabeltype: For 10Gbps connections, ensure you are using Cat6a or Cat7 Ethernet cables. For lower speeds, Cat5e or Cat6 cables are sufficient.
6.3 Langsom netværkshastighed
- Kabelkvalitet: Ensure all Ethernet cables are of appropriate quality and length for the desired speed (e.g., Cat6a for 10Gbps).
- Enhedskapacitet: Confirm that all connected devices (NICs, routers, NAS) support 10Gbps or the desired higher speed. The switch will operate at the lowest common speed.
- Netværksoverbelastning: High network traffic from other devices might impact performance.
- Miljøfaktorer: Ensure the switch is not overheating. Refer to the Maintenance section for proper ventilation.
6.4 Fan Noise
The switch includes an industrial-grade fan for cooling. While designed for efficiency, some fan noise may be audible. Ensure the switch has adequate ventilation to prevent the fan from running at maximum speed unnecessarily.
