8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Backbone Switch


FCC Compliance Statement

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the instructions provided with the equipment, may cause interference to radio and TV communication. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If you suspect this equipment is causing interference, turn your Ethernet Switch on and off while your radio or TV is showing interference, if the interference disappears when you turn your Ethernet Switch off and reappears when you turn it back on, there is interference being caused by the Ethernet Switch.

You can try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  1. Reorient the receiving radio or TV antenna where this may be done safely.
  2. To the extent possible, relocate the radio, TV or other receiver away from the Switch.
  3. Plug the Ethernet Switch into a different power outlet so that the Switch and the receiver are on different branch circuits.

If necessary, you should consult the place of purchase or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions.

Do not use a RJ-11 (telephone) cable to connect your network equipment.

Important Safety Instructions

  1. Read all of these instructions.
  2. Save these instructions for later use.
  3. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
  4. Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
  5. Do not use this product near water.
  6. Do not place this product on an unstable cart or stand. The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product.
  7. The air vent should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.
  8. This product should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or local power company.
  9. This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding type plug.
  10. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not place this product where persons will walk on the cord.
  11. If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere ratings on the products into the extension cord do not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Also make sure that the total of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.
  12. Never push objects of any kind into this product through air ventilation slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
  13. Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage points or other risks. Refer all servicing to service personnel.

Warnings

  1. Wear an anti-static wrist strap or take other suitable measures to prevent electrostatic discharge whenever handling this equipment.
  2. When connecting to a power outlet, connect the field ground lead on the triple power plug to a valid earth ground line to prevent electrical hazards.

CE Mark Warning

In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
