D Indicators Link Power If the Lnk Act indicator does not light up after making a connection check whether the network interface e g a network adapter card on the attached device network cable or switch port is defective Verify that the switch and attached device are on Be sure the cable is plugged in at both ends Verify that the proper cable type is used and its length does not exceed specified limits If the Pwr indicator does turn on when the power cord is plugged in you may have a problem with power outlet or power cord However if the Switch powers off after running for a while check for loose power connections power losses or surges at power outlet Transmission Mode The VOL 1081 RJ 45 ports use auto negotiation to set the transmission mode i e half or full duplex Verify that each attached device is configured to use auto negotiation to set the transmission mode If auto negotiation fails the switch will default to half duplex This means no connection will occur if the device attached to the RJ 45 port is set to full duplex mode The fiber port requires a manual setting of the transmission mode by means of the DIP switch This means the device attached to the fiber port must be similarly configured i e half or full duplex Remember to cycle the power on the VOL 1081 after the DIP switch is changed Cabling gt RJ 45 ports Use unshielded twisted pair UTP or shield twisted pair STP cable for RJ 4
