2. Caratteristiche del prodotto

• 5-Port Gigabit Connectivity: Features 4 PoE (10/100/1000Mbps RJ45) ports and 1 Uplink port, supporting full-duplex/half-duplex operation.
• Ampia compatibilità: Suitable for industrial, home, office, and surveillance networks, connecting devices such as PoE cameras, servers, network printers, and smart TVs.
• Ingresso di potenza flessibile: Supports DC12V~DC48V wide power input. PoE output requires a 48V power input (≥96W). Non-PoE input power: DC12V~48V, output power ≥10W (Typical 12V/1A).
• Funzionamento Plug & Play: Easy setup without software installation or configuration. Simply connect the power cable and Ethernet cables.
• Design in metallo resistente: One-piece thickened aluminum alloy shell for efficient heat dissipation and durability in harsh industrial environments.
• Industrial Grade Performance: Equipped with industrial temperature compensation devices to maintain stable communication rates across a working temperature range of -20°C to 55°C.

5. Guida all'installazione

5.1 Collegamento di alimentazione

1. Ensure you have a compatible power supply (not included). For PoE output, a 48V power supply (≥96W) is required. For non-PoE operation, a DC12V~48V power supply (≥10W, typical 12V/1A) is sufficient.
2. Connect the power supply to the DC power socket on the switch.
3. Verify the power indicator light (green) illuminates, indicating the switch is powered on.

5.2 Connessione del dispositivo

1. Connect your network devices (e.g., computers, routers) to the Uplink port using a standard Ethernet cable.
2. For PoE-enabled devices (e.g., PoE cameras, IP phones, wireless access points), connect them to any of the 4 PoE RJ45 ports. The switch will automatically detect and supply power to these devices if a 48V power supply is used.
3. For non-PoE devices connected to a PoE port, ensure the device is isolated from the ground and has its own power supply to prevent damage. The switch will only transmit data to non-PoE devices on PoE ports.

5.3 Metodi di installazione

The VSP500 switch supports various installation methods for industrial applications:

• DIN Rail Fixing: Use the provided guide rail fixing accessories to mount the switch onto a standard DIN rail.
• Wall-Mounted Fixing: Utilize the wall hanging holes and fixing kit to securely mount the switch on a wall.

6. Istruzioni per l'uso

The VONETS VSP500 switch is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring no complex software configuration.

1. Once powered on and devices are connected as per the Setup Guide, the switch will automatically detect connected devices and establish network links.
2. The RJ45 ports support auto-negotiation for 10/100/1000Mbps speeds and automatically adjust between full-duplex and half-duplex modes.
3. The power indicator light (green) confirms the device is operational. Individual port LEDs (if present and visible) will indicate link status and activity.

7. Manutenzione

7.1 Considerazioni ambientali

The VSP500 is built for industrial environments. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Operate the switch within its specified temperature range of -20°C to 55°C.
• Avoid exposing the device to excessive moisture, dust, or corrosive substances.
• Ensure adequate ventilation around the switch to facilitate heat dissipation from its metal casing.

7.2 Pulizia

Pulire periodicamente l'esterno dell'interruttore con un panno morbido e asciutto. Non utilizzare detergenti liquidi o spray.

8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• No PoE Output: If PoE devices are not receiving power, ensure the power input to the switch is 48V and meets the ≥96W power requirement. PoE functionality is only active with a 48V power supply.
• Device Damage when Connected to PoE Port: If connecting a non-PoE network device to a PoE output port, ensure the access network port of the connected device is isolated from the ground. Failure to do so may cause damage to the connected product.
• Nessuna connettività di rete: Check all Ethernet cable connections. Ensure the power supply is correctly connected and the power indicator light is on. Verify that connected devices are functioning correctly.
• Bassa velocità di rete: Ensure all connected devices and cables support Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) for optimal performance. Check for cable damage or excessive network traffic.
