6. Bruksanvisning

6.1 LED-indikatorer

The EWIND switch uses dual-color LEDs for each port to indicate connection speed:

• Gult lys: Indicates a 1000Mbps (Gigabit) connection.
• Grønt lys: Indicates a 10/100Mbps connection.
• Ingen lys: Indicates no active connection or no device is powered on.

7. Spesifikasjoner

8. Feilsøking

• Ingen strøm-LED: Sørg for at strømadapteren er ordentlig koblet til både bryteren og en fungerende stikkontakt.
• Ingen LED-lampe for kobling/aktivitet:
  • Kontroller at Ethernet-kabelen er ordentlig koblet til både svitsjporten og nettverksenheten.
  • Check if the connected network device is powered on and functioning correctly.
  • Prøv å bruke en annen Ethernet-kabel for å utelukke kabelproblemer.
  • Ensure the cable type is compatible (Cat5e or higher recommended for Gigabit speeds).
• Slow Connection Speed (Green LED instead of Yellow for Gigabit device):
  • Confirm that both the connected device and the Ethernet cable support Gigabit speeds.
  • Replace the Ethernet cable with a known good Cat5e/Cat6/Cat7/Cat8 cable.
  • Ensure the device's network adapter is configured for Gigabit speed (if configurable).
• VLAN Isolation Issues: If you are experiencing unexpected network segmentation, check the VLAN switch setting on the device (if applicable to your model).
