5. Pokyny k nastavení

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

5.1 Fyzická instalace

1. Umístění: Umístěte přepínač na stabilní, rovný povrch nebo jej připevněte na zeď pomocí integrovaných montážních otvorů. Zajistěte dostatečné větrání kolem zařízení.
2. Připojení napájení: Connect the provided power adapter to the DC input port on the switch and then plug the adapter into a power outlet. The PWR LED will illuminate.

5.2 Síťové připojení

1. Připojit zařízení: Use standard Ethernet cables (CAT5e, CAT6, or CAT6a recommended for 2.5G speeds) to connect your network devices (e.g., computers, NAS, WiFi 6 APs, gaming consoles) to any of the 5x 2.5G RJ45 ports.
2. SFP+ Uplink (Optional): For 10G fiber optic connections, insert compatible SFP+ modules into the 2x 10G SFP+ slots and connect fiber optic cables to your server or core switch.

Image: The MokerLink switch connected via RJ45 cables to a WiFi 6 router, laptop, gaming PC, and NAS, and via SFP+ modules to other network infrastructure, illustrating its versatility.

The switch supports auto MDI/MDIX, so you do not need to worry about cable types (straight-through or crossover). It also features auto-negotiation, automatically detecting the link speed of connected devices.

6. Návod k obsluze

6.1 LED indikátory

Monitor the status of your network connections using the LED indicators:

• PWR LED: Solid green indicates the switch is powered on.
• Left LED (2.5G) per port: Solid orange indicates a 2.5Gbps link. Blinking orange indicates data activity.
• Right LED (10/100/1000M) per port: Solid green indicates a 10/100/1000Mbps link. Blinking green indicates data activity.

6.2 VLAN Isolation Mode

The switch supports port-based VLAN isolation, which can reduce network storms and improve security by isolating traffic between specific ports. This is controlled by a DIP switch on the device.

• Default Mode (DIP switch in 'Default' position): Všechny porty spolu mohou komunikovat.
• VLAN Mode (DIP switch in 'VLAN' position): Ports 1-5 are isolated from each other. Each of these ports can only communicate with the uplink ports (ports 6-7). This is useful for scenarios where you want to prevent direct communication between connected devices on ports 1-5, while still allowing them access to the wider network via the uplink ports.

Image: Diagram illustrating port-based VLAN isolation. In VLAN mode, devices connected to ports 1-5 are isolated from each other but can communicate with devices connected to uplink ports 6-7.

To change the VLAN mode, ensure the switch is powered off, adjust the DIP switch, and then power on the switch. Do not change the DIP switch position while the device is operating.

7. Údržba

The MokerLink switch is designed for low maintenance due to its fanless and unmanaged nature.

• Čištění: Udržujte zařízení čisté a bez prachu. K čištění používejte měkký, suchý hadřík. Nepoužívejte tekuté ani aerosolové čisticí prostředky.
• Větrání: Ensure that the ventilation holes are not blocked to prevent overheating, even though it is a fanless design.
• Cyklus napájení: If you experience network issues, a simple power cycle (unplugging and re-plugging the power adapter) can often resolve minor problems.
• Správa kabelů: Ensure all Ethernet and fiber optic cables are securely connected and not excessively bent or strained.

8. Řešení problémů

If you encounter issues with your MokerLink switch, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Bez napájení: If the PWR LED is off, ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet if necessary.
• Kontrolka bez propojení: If a port's LED is off, check the Ethernet cable connection at both ends. Try a different cable or port. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly.
• Pomalá rychlost: If you are not achieving expected speeds (e.g., 2.5G), verify that both the connected device and the Ethernet cable (CAT5e, CAT6, or CAT6a) support the desired speed. Check the port's LED indicator to confirm the link speed.
• Problémy s připojením k síti: If devices cannot communicate, check the DIP switch position. If VLAN mode is enabled, devices on ports 1-5 cannot communicate directly with each other. Switch to Default mode if direct communication is required.
• Přerušované připojení: Check for loose cable connections. Ensure the switch is placed in an environment within its specified operating temperature range (-10°C to +55°C).
