6. Manteniment

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your DGS-105GL switch, consider the following maintenance guidelines:

• Neteja: Periodically clean the exterior of the switch with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid or aerosol cleaners directly on the device.
• Condicions ambientals: Ensure the switch is placed in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and excessive moisture. Maintain operating temperatures within the specified range (refer to specifications).
• Gestió de cables: Keep network cables neatly organized to prevent strain on ports and improve airflow around the device.
• Cicle de potència: If you experience network issues, a simple power cycle (unplugging the power adapter, waiting 10 seconds, and plugging it back in) can often resolve minor problems.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your DGS-105GL switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Sense LED d'alimentació:
  • Assegureu-vos que l'adaptador de corrent estigui connectat correctament tant a l'interruptor com a una presa de corrent que funcioni.
  • Verifiqueu que la presa de corrent funciona connectant-hi un altre dispositiu.
• No Link LED for a Connected Device:
  • Comproveu que el cable Ethernet estigui ben connectat tant al port del commutador com al dispositiu de xarxa.
  • Assegureu-vos que el dispositiu de xarxa connectat estigui encès i funcioni correctament.
  • Prova un cable Ethernet diferent per descartar un cable defectuós.
  • Proveu de connectar el dispositiu a un port diferent de l'interruptor.
• Velocitat de xarxa lenta:
  • Ensure all connected devices and cables support Gigabit Ethernet (Cat5e or higher).
  • Comproveu si hi ha trànsit de xarxa excessiu o aplicacions que consumeixen molta amplada de banda i que s'executen en dispositius connectats.
  • Perform a power cycle on the switch and connected devices.
