Quick Start Guide
The following procedure enables advanced users to get their switch up and running in the shortest
possible time. For detailed installation instructions, refer to the sections in the right column below.
Step Description For Reference, See…
1. Find a Location for the Switch
Set the switch on a flat surface or mount it in a standard rack (1 rack unit high).
“Preparing the Site” (page 19)
2. Connect to the 10/100/1000 Mbps Switch Ports
Connect one end of a Category 5e or better Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of a computer,
printer, network storage, IP camera, or other network/PoE device.
Connect the other end to a 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 port on the switch:
Model EX19082: use ports 1 through 8. Port 9 can be used as a data port.
Model EX19164: use ports 1 through 16.
Model EX19244: use ports 1 through 24.
Repeat this step for each additional device you want to connect to the ports.

and
“Connecting to the 10/100/1000 Mbps
RJ-45 Ports” (page 22)
3. Connect to the SFP Ports
Connect to the SFP ports. For EX19164 and EX19244, the last 4 RJ-45 ports are shared with the
SFP ports. If a shared RJ-45 or SFP port is being used, the other port cannot be used at the same
time.
“Gigabit SFP Ports” (page 15)
SFP Ports:
Remove any protector plugs from the SFP transceivers on the front of the switch.
Position and insert a SFP transceiver into one of the SFP ports until it is firmly seated, and then
close the latching bale.
Model EX19082: use port 10FX.
Model EX19164: use ports 13 FX through 16 FX.
Model EX19244: use ports 21 FX through 24 FX.
Repeat this step to use another SFP port if necessary.

4. Power On
Connect the female end of the supplied AC power adapter cable to the power receptacle on
the back of the switch.
Connect the 3-pronged end of the AC power adapter cable to a grounded 3-pronged AC outlet.
Move the ON/OFF switch on the rear panel of the switch to the ON position.
Wait for the switch to complete its Power On Self Test.
Confirm that the LEDs for ports connected to a device are on. If not, replace the Ethernet
cable, and then check the port LED again.
