5. Persediaan

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

1. Pemasangan: 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. Sambungan Kuasa: Connect the power cord to the AC power inlet on the rear panel of the switch and then to a grounded electrical outlet.
3. Jaringan rangkaian:
   • Peranti PoE: 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.
   • Pelabuhan Uplink: Connect the Gigabit uplink ports (17 or 18) to your router, NVR, or main network switch using an Ethernet cable.
   • Modul SFP: If using fiber optic connections, insert compatible SFP modules into the SFP slots (shared with ports 17-18) and connect fiber optic cables.
4. Konfigurasi Awal: 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. Arahan Operasi

Menghidupkan/Mematikan

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.

Penunjuk LED

• PWR: Solid green when the switch is powered on.
• SYS: Indicates system status (e.g., solid for normal operation, blinking for activity).
• Pautan/Akta (setiap port): Solid green when a device is connected and a link is established. Blinking green indicates data activity.
• PoE (setiap 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.

8. Penyelesaian masalah

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

• Tiada Kuasa:
  • Pastikan kord kuasa disambungkan dengan selamat pada suis dan soket elektrik yang berfungsi.
  • Sahkan alur keluar kuasa berfungsi dengan memasang peranti lain.
• Tiada Pautan/Kesambungan:
  • Check that Ethernet cables are securely connected to both the switch port and the connected device.
  • Pastikan peranti yang disambungkan dihidupkan dan berfungsi dengan betul.
  • Try a different Ethernet cable or 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.
  • Akses ke web management interface to check PoE settings and status for the port.
• Kelajuan Rangkaian Perlahan:
  • Periksa kabel atau sambungan yang rosak.
  • 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.
• Menetapkan semula Suis: 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.
