4. Opsætning

Follow these steps to set up your Sodola PoE Switch:

4.1 Fysisk installation

• Desktopplacering: Placer kontakten på en flad, stabil overflade. Sørg for tilstrækkelig ventilation omkring enheden.
• Rack montering: The switch supports 1U rack mounting. Use appropriate rack-mount brackets (not included unless specified) to secure the device in a standard 19-inch server rack.

4.2 Strømtilslutning

1. Connect the provided power cord to the AC INPUT port on the rear panel of the switch.
2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a standard AC power outlet (100-240V).
3. The PWR indicator on the front panel should illuminate, indicating the switch is receiving power.

4.3 Netværksforbindelser

Connect your network devices to the switch using Ethernet cables. For optimal 2.5GbE speeds, use Cat6 or higher pure copper cables. Ensure all connected devices (routers, NICs, etc.) also support 2.5GbE; otherwise, network speed will default to the slowest connected device.

• PoE-enheder: Connect PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP cameras, wireless access points) to ports 1-24. These ports will automatically detect and provide power to compliant devices.
• Ikke-PoE-enheder: Non-PoE devices can also be connected to ports 1-24 for data connectivity.
• Uplink-forbindelser: Use the 10G SFP+ ports for high-speed connections to your core network, servers, or other 10G-capable devices.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

The Sodola PoE Switch is largely plug-and-play for basic network connectivity. Once powered on and devices are connected, it will begin forwarding data.

5.1 LED-indikatorer

Monitor the LED indicators on the front panel for device status:

• PWR: Solid green when the switch is powered on.
• SYS: Indicates system status. Refer to the full user manual for specific blink patterns.
• LINK/ACT (per port): Solid green when a link is established, flashing green when data is being transmitted/received.
• PoE (per port): Solid green when PoE power is being supplied to a connected device.
• PoE MAX: Indicates total PoE power usage. OFF: <90%, FLASHING: 90%-95%, ON: 95%-100%.

5.2 Nulstilling til fabriksindstillinger

To restore the switch to its factory default settings, press and hold the RESET button on the front panel for approximately 6 seconds. The switch will reboot with default configurations.

6. Web Ledelse

The switch features an easy-to-use web-based management interface for advanced configuration and monitoring.

6.1 Adgang til Web Interface

1. Sørg for, at din computer er tilsluttet switchen via et Ethernet-kabel.
2. Configure your computer's IP address to be in the same subnet as the switch's default IP address (e.g., if the switch is 192.168.2.1, set your computer to 192.168.2.x, where x is not 1).
3. Åbn a web browseren og indtast standard-IP-adressen for switchen: 192.168.2.1
4. Indtast standard loginoplysningerne: Brugernavn: admin, Adgangskode: admin.
5. Når du har logget ind, får du adgang til web ledelsesgrænseflade.

8. Fejlfinding

• Ingen strøm: Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet. Check the PWR LED.
• Intet link/aktivitet: Verify that Ethernet cables are properly connected to both the switch and the network device. Check the LINK/ACT LED for the respective port. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly.
• Langsom netværkshastighed: For 2.5GbE connections, ensure you are using Cat6 or higher pure copper cables and that all devices in the network path support 2.5GbE.
• PoE-enhed tænder ikke: Confirm the connected device is PoE-compatible (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt). Check the PoE LED for the port. Ensure the total PoE power budget of 500W is not exceeded. Passive 24V PoE devices are not supported.
• Kan ikke få adgang Web Interface: Verify your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the switch's default IP (192.168.2.1). Ensure the correct default username and password ('admin'/'admin') are used. Try resetting the switch to factory defaults if the IP address has been changed and forgotten.
• Configuration Changes Not Saved: Remember to explicitly save configurations through the web interface after making changes.

9. Vedligeholdelse

• Rensning: Brug en blød, tør klud til at rengøre ydersiden af ​​kontakten. Brug ikke flydende rengøringsmidler eller rengøringsmidler på sprayform.
• Ventilation: Ensure the ventilation openings on the sides of the switch are not obstructed to allow for proper heat dissipation.
