5. Configuració

5.1 Connexió d'alimentació

1. Connect the provided power cord to the AC input port on the rear of the switch.
2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a standard electrical outlet (100-240V AC).
3. Verify that the power LED indicator on the switch illuminates, indicating the device is receiving power.

5.2 Connexió de xarxa

1. Connect your PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP cameras, IP phones, wireless access points) to any of the 8 PoE ports (1-8) using standard Ethernet cables.
2. Connect your network router, NVR, or other non-PoE network devices to the 2 Gigabit Uplink ports (9-10) using standard Ethernet cables.
3. The switch supports auto MDI/MDIX, so you can use either straight-through or crossover cables.

6. Modes de funcionament

The SL-SG082P features a mode switch on the front panel to select between different operating modes:

• Mode predeterminat: All ports operate at their standard Gigabit speed (10/100/1000Mbps) with no special functions enabled.
• Mode d'ampliació: When enabled, ports 7 and 8 can extend their transmission distance up to 250 meters. In this mode, the speed for these ports is fixed at 10Mbps. This is useful for long-distance PoE device deployments.
• Mode VLAN: When enabled, PoE ports 1-8 are isolated from each other, meaning devices connected to these ports cannot communicate directly. They can only communicate with the uplink ports (9-10). This helps to reduce network broadcast storms and improve security.

7. AI Watchdog Feature

The AI Watchdog feature intelligently detects unresponsive PoE-powered devices. If a connected PoE device (e.g., an IP camera) becomes disconnected or stops responding, the switch will automatically reboot that specific PoE port, restoring functionality without manual intervention. This enhances system reliability and reduces downtime.

9. Manteniment

• Neteja: Feu servir un drap suau i sec per netejar l'exterior de l'interruptor. No utilitzeu netejadors líquids ni en aerosol.
• Ventilació: Ensure adequate airflow around the switch. Do not block ventilation openings.
• Medi ambient: Operate the switch within the specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent damage. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, water, or excessive dust.
• Actualitzacions de firmware: Comproveu el del fabricant weblloc web periòdicament per a les actualitzacions de firmware disponibles per garantir un rendiment i una seguretat òptims.

10. Solució De Problemes

• Sense energia: If the power LED is off, ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the switch and the electrical outlet. Test the outlet with another device.
• Sense enllaç/activitat: If a port's link/activity LED is off, check the Ethernet cable connection at both ends. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly.
• El dispositiu PoE no rep alimentació: Verify that the connected device is PoE-compatible (IEEE802.3af/at). Check the PoE status LED for the port. If using Extend Mode, ensure the device is compatible with 10Mbps speed over extended distances. For non-PoE devices, ensure they have their own power source or use an active PoE splitter.
• Network Congestion/Slow Speed: Consider enabling VLAN Mode if you have many devices on PoE ports that do not need to communicate directly. Ensure all cables are in good condition and properly terminated.
• Dispositiu PoE que no respon: The AI Watchdog feature should automatically reboot unresponsive devices. If a device remains unresponsive, manually power cycle the device or the switch.
