Gigabit Unmanaged Switch  
ChaCter C Introduction  
C1C Product Overview  
The Gigabit Unmanaged Switch provides you with a high-performance, low-cost, easy-  
to-use, seamless and standard upgrade to boost your old network to 1000Mbps.  
By increasing the speed of your network server and backbone connections, the  
Gigabit Unmanaged Switch makes Gigabit a reality. Power users in the home, office,  
workgroup, or creative production environment can now move large, bandwidth-  
intensive files faster. Graphics, CGI, CAD, multimedia files and other large files moved  
by some applications can be transferred across the network almost instantly.  
The Gigabit Unmanaged Switch features a non-blocking switching architecture that  
forwards and filters packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. The switch  
supports MAC address auto-learning and auto-aging, IEEE802.3x flow control for full-  
duplex mode and backpressure for half-duplex mode. It is compatible with all 10Mbps,  
100Mbps and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices because it is standard-based. It protects  
your existing network investments while providing you with a straightforward migration  
path to faster Gigabit speed.  
The Gigabit Unmanaged Switch is plug-and-play and no configuration is required.  
Auto MDI/MDI-X cable detection on all ports eliminates the need for crossover cable  
or Uplink port. Each port can be used as general port or Uplink port, and any port can  
be simply plugged into a server, a hub, a router or a switch, using the straight cable  
or crossover cable. Diagnostic LEDs which display link status and activity, allow you to  
quickly detect and correct problems on the network.  
TL-SG1008PE is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE*1. The 8 Auto-Negotiation RJ45  
ports support Power over Ethernet (PoE*1 function, which can automatically detect and  
supply power with those IEEE802.3af/IEEE802.3at-compliant powered devices (PDs*1.  
Note:  
*PSE is a device (switch or hub for instance1 that will provide power in a PoE setup.  
*PoE is a technology that describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with  
data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network.  
*PD is a device powered by a PSE and thus consumes energy. Examples include  
powering IP telephones, wireless LAN access points, network cameras, network hubs,  
embedded computers, etc.

Note:  
If all PoE PDs power consumption is >=124W, a priority* will be arranged among the  
PoE ports like port 1 > port 2 > port 3 > port 4 > port 5 > port 6 > port F > port 8,  
then the system will cut off the power of the lowest-priority port.  
*Priority is to protect the system when the system power is overloaded. For example,  
Port 1, 2, 4 and F is using 30; the system power is 120W in total. If there is an  
additional PD inserted to Port 3 with 25W, and then the system will cut off the power  
of Port F because of the overloaded power, this means Port 1, 2 and 4 will use 30W,  
and Port 3 will use 25W, no power will be supplied to Port F.  
Make sure the PDs you connected to the switch are compliant with IEEE802.3af/  
IEEE802.3at standard.

Lightening Protection  
Extremely high voltage currents can be produced instantly when lightning occurs and the air  
in the electric discharge path can be instantly heated up to 20,000. As this instant current  
is strong enough to damage electronic devices, more effective lightning protection measures  
should be taken.  
Ensure the rack and device are well earthed.  
Make sure the power socket has a good contact with the ground.  
Keep a reasonable cabling system and avoid induced lightning.  
Use the signal SPD (Surge Protective Device1 when wiring outdoor.

11C Cabling Reasonably  
In the actual network environment, you may need cable outdoors and indoors, and  
the requirements for cabling outdoors and indoors are different. A reasonable cabling  
system can decrease the damage of induced lightning to devices.  
Note: It's not recommended using Ethernet cables outdoors. When cabling outdoors,  
please use a signal lightning arrester.  
Requirements for Cabling Outdoors  
Aerial cabling without safeguard is not allowed.  
It’s not allowed cabling down the building to connect network devices in different  
floors.  
Outdoor cables should be buried and paved to the indoor through basement. A  
piece of steel wire should be paved underground along the pipe and connected to  
the lightning protection terminal of the building for shielding. Before connecting the  
cable to the device, install a signal lightning arrester on the corresponding port.  
When an aerial cable is set up, the cable should be through a metal pipe (15m long  
at least1 before coming into the building. The two ends of this metal pipe should  
be grounded. Before connecting the cable to the device, install a signal lightning  
arrester on the corresponding port.  
It’s not necessary to pave STP cables through pipes. The shielded layer of STP cable  
should be well grounded. Before connecting the cable to the device, install a signal  
lightning arrester on the corresponding port.  
Lightning Protection

Gigabit Unmanaged Switch  
Requirements for Cabling Indoors  
When cabling indoors, keep a certain distance away from the devices that may cause  
high-frequency interferences, such as down-conductor cable, powerline, power  
transformer and electromotor.  
The main cable should be paved in the metal raceway of the access shaft. When  
cabling, keep the loop area formed by the cable itself as small as possible.  
Requirements for the distance between Ethernet cable and other pipelines are  
shown in the table.

If the device is installed in the normal environment, the device can be grounded via the  
PE (Protecting Earth1 cable of the AC power supply as shown in the following figure.  
Figure 3-2 Connecting to the Ground  
Note:  
The figure is to illustrate the application and principle. The power plug you get from  
the package and the socket in your situation will comply with the regulation in your  
country, so they may differ from the figure above.  
If you intend to connect the device to the ground via the PE (Protecting Earth1 cable  
of AC power cord, please make sure the PE (Protecting Earth1 cable in the electrical  
outlet is well grounded in advance.  
111 EquiCotential Bonding  
Equipotential Bonding is the practice of intentionally electrically connecting all earthed  
systems to the same grounding grid or connecting the grounding grids of all the  
earthed systems together through the ground or overground metal so as to create  
an earthed equipotential zone. When lightning occurs, the high voltage produced by  
lightning current in all systems will meanwhile exist in their ground cables, and thus  
all ground cables have the same electrical potential and basically eliminate the electric  
strikes between the systems.  
The figure below illustrates how to practice equipotential bonding in a network.

When equipotential bonding, please note that the cable should be copper wrapped  
Kelly with its area being 6mm2 at least. The shorter cable the better, and use a  
grounding bar to establish an equipotential bonding point.  
Note: The equipotential bonding cable and ground cable are not provided with our  
product. If needed, please self purchase it.  
112 Use Lightning Arrester  
Power lightning arrester and signal lightning arrester are used for lighting protection.  
Power lightning arrester is used for limiting the voltage surge due to a lightning. If an  
outdoor AC power cord should be directly connected to the device, please use a power  
lightning arrester.  
Note: Power lightning arrester is not provided with our product. If needed, please self  
purchase it.  
Signal lightning arrester is used to protect RJ45 ports of the device from lightning.  
When cabling outdoors, please install a signal lightning arrester before connecting the  
cable to the device.  
When purchasing or using a signal lightning arrester, please observe the following  
rules:

Lightning Protection  
 
Gigabit Unmanaged Switch  
The port rate of the signal lightning arrester should match the rate of the desired  
port on the device. If it is not matched, this signal lighting arrester will not work.  
Purchase a standard lightning arrester.  
Install signal lightning arrester near the protected device and connect it to the  
ground via a shorter ground cable.

212 Initialization  
For TL-SG1048/TL-SG1024/TL-SG1024D/TL-SG1016/TL-SG1016D/TL-SG1008:  
After the device is powered on, it begins the Power-On Self-Test. A series of tests run  
automatically to ensure the device functions properly. During this time, its LED indica-  
tors will respond as follows:  
All of the LED indicators will flash momentarily for one second, which represents a  
resetting of the system.  
The Power LED indicator will light up.  
For TL-SG1008PE:  
The LED indicators for TL-SG1008PE are classified into two parts:  
The LEDs indicating switch status including Power LED, Link/Act LEDs and 1000Mbps  
LEDs; the LEDs indicating PSE status, including PoE MAX LED and PoE Status LEDs.  
After the device is powered on, it begins the Power-On Self-Test. A series of tests run  
automatically to ensure the device functions properly. During this time, its LED indica-  
tors will respond as follows:  
All of the LEDs indicating swith status will flash momentarily for one second, which  
represents a resetting of the switch system. The PoE MAX LED will keep on for  
approximately ten seconds, representing a resetting of the PSE system. Take note  
that the PoE Status LEDs won't light up during this period.  
The Power LED indicator will light up.
