3. Enstriksyon Enstalasyon
The Cudy GS108 switch is designed for simple plug-and-play installation. No software configuration is required.
3.1 Konekte switch la
- Konekte ak pouvwa: Plug the provided power adapter into the DC 5V port on the switch and then into a power outlet. The PWR LED on the front panel will illuminate.
- Konekte ak routeur/modèm: Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to any LAN port on your router or modem. Connect the other end of this cable to any of the 8 RJ45 ports on the Cudy GS108 switch.
- Konekte Aparèy Rezo yo: Connect your network devices (e.g., computers, game consoles, IPTV boxes, printers, NAS) to the remaining RJ45 ports on the Cudy GS108 switch using Ethernet cables.
- Verifye Koneksyon: After connecting, wait approximately one minute. The corresponding LED for each connected port will light up, indicating an active link.

4. Operasyon Enstriksyon
4.1 Endikatè ki ap dirije
The front panel of the GS108 switch features several LED indicators to provide status information:
- PWR ki ap dirije: Endike estati pouvwa switch la.
- Sou: Se switch la mache sou.
- Off: Se switch la etenn.
- Port 1-8 LEDs: Each port has an associated LED that indicates its link/activity status.
- Vèt (solid): A device is connected and operating at Gigabit (1000Mbps) speed.
- Vèt (kliyote): Data is being transmitted or received on the Gigabit port.
- Jòn (solid): A device is connected and operating at 10/100Mbps speed.
- Jòn (kliyote): Data is being transmitted or received on the 10/100Mbps port.
- Off: Pa gen okenn aparèy ki konekte nan pò a, oubyen aparèy ki konekte a etenn.
4.2 Operasyon Rezo Debaz
Once connected, the Cudy GS108 switch automatically handles data forwarding between connected devices. It operates as an unmanaged switch, meaning it does not require any user configuration for basic network functionality. Devices connected to the switch will be able to communicate with each other and with the internet (if the switch is connected to a router/modem).
5. Antretyen
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Cudy GS108 switch, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Plasman: Place the switch in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and excessive moisture.
- Vantilasyon: Ensure that the ventilation holes on the sides of the switch are not blocked to allow for proper airflow, even though it has a fanless design.
- Netwayaj: Sèvi ak yon twal mou epi sèk pou netwaye deyò switch la. Pa sèvi ak pwodui netwayaj likid oswa ayewosòl.
- Pouvwa: Use only the provided power adapter. Disconnect the power adapter during electrical storms or when the device is not in use for extended periods.
- Jesyon kab: Keep Ethernet cables neatly organized to prevent strain on the ports and accidental disconnections.

NAN. Depanaj
If you encounter issues with your Cudy GS108 switch, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:
- Pa gen kouran (LED PWR etenn):
- Asire w adaptè kouran an byen konekte ak switch la ak yon priz kouran ki fonksyone.
- Verifye si priz kouran an fonksyone byen lè w branche yon lòt aparèy.
- No Link/Activity on a Port (Port LED Off):
- Tcheke ke kab Ethernet la byen konekte ak pò switch la ak aparèy rezo a.
- Asire w ke aparèy rezo ki konekte a limen epi li fonksyone byen.
- Eseye yon lòt kab Ethernet pou elimine posiblite pou kab la domaje.
- Eseye konekte aparèy la nan yon pò diferan sou switch la.
- Vitès rezo a ba:
- Ensure you are using Cat.5e or higher Ethernet cables for Gigabit speeds.
- Verify that your connected devices and router/modem support Gigabit Ethernet.
- Check the port LED color: Green indicates Gigabit speed, Yellow indicates 10/100Mbps speed. If it's yellow and you expect green, check the connected device's network adapter settings or cable quality.
- Continuous Power/Loop Blinking:
- This switch is an unmanaged switch and does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE). Ensure you are not attempting to connect PoE devices or using PoE injectors with this switch, as it is not designed for such functionality.
- If multiple switches are connected in a loop without proper Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) configuration (which unmanaged switches do not have), it can cause network loops. Ensure your network topology avoids physical loops between unmanaged switches.
