3. Інструкцыі па ўсталёўцы
Follow these steps to set up your Real HD 5 Port 2.5Gb Ethernet Switch.
3.1 Фізічнае размяшчэнне
- Place the switch on a stable, flat surface such as a desktop, or mount it to a wall using appropriate hardware (not included).
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the device. Although fanless, proper airflow helps maintain optimal operating temperature.
- Keep the switch away from strong electromagnetic fields, direct sunlight, and sources of excessive heat or moisture.

- Падключыце харчаванне: Insert the power adapter into the DC 12V port on the switch and plug the other end into a standard electrical outlet. The Power (PWR) LED indicator on the front panel will illuminate.
- Connect Network Devices (RJ45 Ports): Use CAT6 or higher-level pure copper Ethernet cables to connect your network devices (e.g., computers, routers, NAS, WiFi 6 APs) to any of the five 2.5G RJ45 ports (labeled 1-5). For optimal 2.5Gbps speeds, ensure all connected devices and cables support 2.5Gbps.
- Connect 10G SFP+ Port (Optional): If you require 10 Gigabit connectivity, insert a compatible 10G SFP+ module (not included) into the SFP+ port (labeled 6(10G)). Then, connect a suitable fiber optic cable or DAC cable to the SFP+ module. Ensure the SFP+ module and connected device are compatible.
Figure 3.2: Illustration of cable requirements for achieving 2.5Gbps and 10Gbps speeds. CAT6, CAT6a, and CAT7 cables are recommended for optimal performance.
Важная заўвага: To achieve 2.5Gbps or 10Gbps network speeds, ensure that all components in your network path, including network cards, routers, and cables, support these higher speeds. If any device operates at a lower speed (e.g., 1Gbps), the connection speed will default to the lowest common speed.
4. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі
The Real HD 5 Port 2.5Gb Ethernet Switch is an unmanaged device, meaning it operates on a plug-and-play basis without requiring any software configuration. Once connected, it automatically detects and configures the speed and duplex mode of connected devices.
