Chapter 1 Introduction of the Product

Thank you for choosing the TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D 5/8-port Gigabit Desktop Switch.

1.1 Overview of the Product

Powered by the Gigabit Ethernet Technology, TL-SG1005D/ TL-SG1008D Gigabit Desktop Switch provides the seamless network connection, which can speed up your old network to 1000Mbps, ensuring the graphics, CGI, CAD, or multimedia files and other applications with bandwidth-intensive files transferred across the network almost instantly.

The non-blocking switching architecture adopted in the TL- SG1005D/TL-SG1008D switch greatly improves network response times as well as significantly speed up the traffic between subnets by forwarding and filtering packets at full wire- speed for maximum throughput.

The TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D switch is plug-and-play. In addition, the Auto-MDI/MDIX cable detection on all ports eliminates the demand of crossover cable or Uplink port. Each port can be used as general ports or Uplink ports, and any port can be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a router, a switch or a PC, using the straight cable or crossover cable. Diagnostic LEDs which display link status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

The TL-SG1005D/TL-SG1008D switch adopts Green Ethernet technology, supports power saving features. The switch automatically powers down the ports that have no link or are connected to the computers which have been shut down, budgets power output for different Ethernet cable lengths.

Chapter 3 Installation The Switch can be either located on a desktop or mounted on a wall.

3.1 Mounting the Switch on a Desk

To locate the Switch on a desktop, please follow these steps:

1) Place the Switch on a flat desk.

2) Inspect the Power Adapter carefully and make sure that it is properly connected to a power source.

3) Ensure adequate ventilation space around the switch for dissipating heat and air.

Note: Please avoid any heavy thing placed on the switch. To ensure the stable cable connection, please keep the switch horizontal on the desktop, with white cover facing up.

3.2 Mounting the Switch on a Wall

There are two wall-mounting slots on the bottom panel of the Switch. To mount the Switch on a wall, please follow the steps below.

1) Drill two holes into the wall. Insert a screw into each hole and leave a part of its head exposed.

2) Place the two wall-mounting slots over the screws and slide the Switch down to fasten it.
