3.1 Kubatanidza Simba

1. Connect the provided power cable to the power input on the back of the switch.
2. Batanidza imwe magumo etambo yemagetsi mune yakajairwa AC magetsi.
3. The Power (PWR) indicator on the front panel will illuminate, indicating the switch is receiving power.

3.2 Kubatanidza Network Devices

1. Connect PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones) to ports 1-8 using Ethernet cables. These ports will provide both data and power.
2. Connect non-PoE devices (e.g., routers, NVRs, computers) to the uplink ports 9-10 using Ethernet cables. These ports are for data transmission only.

4. Operating Instructions

The VIMIN 10-Port Gigabit PoE Switch is a plug-and-play device. Basic operation requires no configuration. Advanced features can be enabled using the DIP switches located on the front panel.

4.1 Understanding DIP Switch Modes

The switch features a set of DIP switches (labeled 1-4) to activate specific functions:

• DIP Switch 1: LPP Ring & BSP Broadcast Storm Protection
  When enabled, this feature provides ring protection and broadcast storm protection. If a network link is disrupted, the switch automatically reroutes traffic to maintain network operation.
• DIP Switch 2: Extend 250m
  Enables extended transmission mode, allowing data to be transmitted up to 250 meters. In this mode, the data rate for ports 1-8 is reduced to 10Mbps.
• DIP Switch 3: VLAN
  Activates VLAN port isolation. Ports 1-8 are isolated from each other, preventing direct communication between them, but they can still communicate with the uplink ports (9-10). This enhances network security and optimizes bandwidth.
• DIP Switch 4: AI Watchdog
  Enables AI Watchdog mode. The switch monitors PoE-powered devices on ports 1-8. If a device becomes unresponsive or loses connection, the switch automatically restarts power to that port, restoring functionality.

4.2 Activating DIP Switch Functions

To activate a specific function, move the corresponding DIP switch to the 'ON' position. To deactivate, move it to the 'OFF' position. It is recommended to adjust DIP switches when the switch is powered off to avoid potential network disruptions.
