3. Setup u Installazzjoni
3.1. Tqegħid Fiżiku
The AT-GS950/10PS switch can be installed in a desktop, rack-mountable, or wall-mountable configuration. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating. Avoid placing the switch near sources of electromagnetic interference, excessive dust, or moisture.
3.2. Konnessjoni tal-Enerġija
- Qabbad l-adapter tal-enerġija mal-port tad-dħul tal-enerġija fuq il-pannell ta' wara tas-swiċċ.
- Ipplaggja l-adapter tal-enerġija f'bokk tal-enerġija AC adattat.
- The PWR LED on the front panel will illuminate, indicating that the switch is receiving power.
3.3. Konnessjonijiet tan-Netwerk
Connect network devices (e.g., computers, servers, access points, IP cameras) to the switch using standard Ethernet cables.
- Portijiet RJ-45 (1-8): These are 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ ports. Connect PoE-compatible devices to these ports to provide both data and power.
- RJ-45 Ports (9R, 10R): These are 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports.
- SFP Combo Ports (9, 10): These ports are shared with RJ-45 ports 9R and 10R. Insert compatible SFP transceivers for fiber optic connections. When an SFP module is inserted, the corresponding RJ-45 port is disabled.
3.4. Konfigurazzjoni Inizjali (Web-based Management)
The switch features web-based management for configuration. Refer to the separate "Web-based Management Guide" for detailed instructions on accessing and configuring the switch's settings, including VLANs, QoS, and port settings.
4. Tħaddim tas-Swiċċ
4.1. Indikaturi LED
The front panel LEDs provide real-time status information about the switch and its ports.
| LED | Status | Deskrizzjoni |
|---|---|---|
| PWR | Aħdar | Is-swiċċ huwa mixgħul. |
| PoE MAX | Ambra | Indicates that the total PoE power budget is nearing or exceeding its limit. |
| PoE (per port) | Aħdar | L-apparat PoE konness qed jingħata l-enerġija. |
| SPD (per port) | Aħdar | Port is operating at 1000 Mbps (Gigabit). |
| Ambra | Port is operating at 10/100 Mbps. | |
| LINK/ACT (per port) | Aħdar (Solidu) | Ġiet stabbilita konnessjoni valida tan-netwerk. |
| Aħdar (Jteptep) | Data activity is occurring on the port. |
4.2. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
The AT-GS950/10PS provides up to 30 watts of power per port on ports 1-8, compliant with IEEE 802.3at (PoE+). This allows for powering devices such as wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones directly through the Ethernet cable, simplifying deployment and reducing cabling requirements.
5. Manutenzjoni
5.1. Tindif
Ensure the switch is powered off and disconnected from all cables before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior of the unit. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, as they may damage the device.
5.2. Aġġornamenti tal-Firmware
Periodically check the Allied Telesis website for available firmware updates. Firmware updates can provide new features, performance improvements, and security enhancements. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware update package carefully.
5.3. Konsiderazzjonijiet Ambjentali
Maintain the operating environment within the recommended temperature and humidity ranges specified in the product's technical specifications to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the switch.
6 Issolvi l-problemi
This section provides solutions to common issues you may encounter with the AT-GS950/10PS switch.
6.1. Ebda Qawwa
- Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet.
- Ivverifika li s-sokit tal-enerġija qed jaħdem billi tqabbad apparat ieħor.
- Check the PWR LED on the front panel. If it is off, the switch is not receiving power.
6.2. No Network Link
- Kun żgur li l-kejbil Ethernet huwa konness sew kemm mal-port tas-swiċċ kif ukoll mal-apparat tan-netwerk.
- Verify that the LINK/ACT LED for the connected port is solid green. If not, try a different cable or port.
- Check the network device to ensure it is powered on and functioning correctly.
- Għall-portijiet SFP, kun żgur li l-modulu SFP ikun imdaħħal sew u kompatibbli.
6.3. Apparat PoE Mhux Qed Jirċievi l-Enerġija
- Ensure the device connected is PoE-compatible (IEEE 802.3af/at).
- Verify that the PoE LED for the specific port is illuminated.
- Check the PoE MAX LED. If it is amber, the switch may be exceeding its total power budget. Disconnect non-essential PoE devices or reduce power consumption.
- Ensure the Ethernet cable is capable of carrying power (standard Cat5e or higher).
6.4. Irrisettja l-Iswiċċ
If the switch is unresponsive or experiencing persistent issues, a factory reset may be necessary. Refer to the "Web-based Management Guide" for instructions on performing a factory reset, as this will erase all custom configurations.
