5. Nastavení

Follow these steps to set up your Amcrest PoE+ switch:

1. Montáž: The switch is rack-mountable. Attach the included rackmount ears to the sides of the switch using the provided screws. Secure the switch into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Ensure adequate ventilation around the switch.
2. Připojení napájení: Connect the power cord to the AC power inlet on the rear panel of the switch and then to a grounded electrical outlet.
3. Připojení k síti:
   • PoE zařízení: Connect your PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP cameras, access points) to ports 1-16 using standard Ethernet cables. The switch will automatically detect and provide power to these devices.
   • Uplink porty: Connect the Gigabit uplink ports (17 or 18) to your router, NVR, or main network switch using an Ethernet cable.
   • SFP moduly: If using fiber optic connections, insert compatible SFP modules into the SFP slots (shared with ports 17-18) and connect fiber optic cables.
4. Počáteční konfigurace: For managed features, connect a computer to any non-PoE port or a Gigabit uplink port. The switch typically has a default IP address (refer to the included quick start guide or Amcrest support for the specific default IP and login credentials).

6. Návod k obsluze

Zapnutí/vypnutí

Once the power cord is connected, the switch will power on automatically. The PWR LED indicator will illuminate. To power off, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

LED indikátory

• PWR: Solid green when the switch is powered on.
• SYS: Indicates system status (e.g., solid for normal operation, blinking for activity).
• Link/Act (per port): Solid green when a device is connected and a link is established. Blinking green indicates data activity.
• PoE (per port): Solid green when PoE power is being supplied to a connected device.

Managed Features

As a managed switch, the AGPS18E16P-AT-190M offers advanced configuration options via its web-based interface. These include:

• VLAN configuration for network segmentation.
• Quality of Service (QoS) settings to prioritize network traffic.
• Port Aggregation (LACP) for increased bandwidth and redundancy.
• PoE management, including power scheduling and monitoring.
• System logs and diagnostics.

Refer to the switch's online documentation or Amcrest support for detailed instructions on configuring these advanced features.

7. Údržba

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your switch:

• Čištění: Pravidelně čistěte vnější povrch spínače měkkým, suchým hadříkem. Nepoužívejte tekuté ani aerosolové čisticí prostředky. Ujistěte se, že ventilační otvory jsou bez prachu a ucpané.
• Aktualizace firmwaru: Periodically check the Amcrest official website for available firmware updates. Applying updates can improve performance, add features, and address security vulnerabilities. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware update carefully.
• Podmínky prostředí: Operate the switch within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid exposing the switch to direct sunlight, excessive heat, or moisture.

8. Řešení problémů

If you encounter issues with your switch, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Bez napájení:
  • Ujistěte se, že je napájecí kabel bezpečně připojen k přepínači i k funkční elektrické zásuvce.
  • Ověřte funkčnost elektrické zásuvky zapojením jiného zařízení.
• Žádné propojení/připojení:
  • Check that Ethernet cables are securely connected to both the switch port and the connected device.
  • Ujistěte se, že připojené zařízení je zapnuté a funguje správně.
  • Zkuste jiný ethernetový kabel nebo port.
  • For SFP connections, ensure the SFP module is correctly inserted and compatible.
• PoE Not Delivering Power:
  • Verify the connected device is PoE-compatible (802.3at/af).
  • Check the PoE LED for the specific port; if it's off, power is not being supplied.
  • Ensure the total power consumption of all PoE devices does not exceed the switch's 190W budget.
  • Přístup k web management interface to check PoE settings and status for the port.
• Pomalá rychlost sítě:
  • Zkontrolujte vadné kabely nebo připojení.
  • Ensure connected devices are operating at their expected speeds (e.g., 100Mbps devices on 10/100 ports).
  • Review QoS settings in the management interface if traffic prioritization is configured.
• Resetování přepínače: If issues persist, you may need to reset the switch to factory default settings. With the switch powered on, use a paperclip or similar pointed object to press and hold the Reset button for approximately 5-10 seconds until the LEDs flash. The switch will then reboot with default settings.
