It is an easy-installed network switch which helps you to extend your network structure quickly and reliably. The 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Green Switch is designed for energy saving, easy installation and high performance in an environment where network traffic and the number of users increase continuously. You can add other Ethernet devices like computers, IP cameras, and Network Attached Storage (NAS) onto your network quickly and easily. The Green EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) technology of AGSW1600 automatically reduces the power usage when a connected port is detected inactive (idle or cable-unplugged) and intelligently allocates less power for a port that connects with an Ethernet cable shorter than 20m (66 ft)*. Before you begin the installation, please check the items of your package: Package Contents: • 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Green Switch • Power Cord • Quick Installation Guide • Brackets and Screws 2 Section 1 Section 1 Hardware Description 1.1 Hardware Interface • 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiation RJ45 Ports • All ports support auto MDI/MDIX, no need to use cross-over cables 1.2 Panel 1.2.1 Front Panel The front panel of the Switch consists of LED indicators, and 16 10/100/1000Mbps ports.
