What do the LEDs on the front panel of the D-LINK DGS-1100-18PV2 indicate?

The front panel of the D-LINK DGS-1100-18PV2 has several LEDs to indicate its status:

Power LED: The Power LED lights up when the Switch is connected to a power source.

Port LED Indicator (For PoE Model): A LED select button to switch two modes in turn for all 10/100/1000Mbps ports: Link/Act/Speed Mode and PoE Mode.

Link/Act/Speed LED (Ports 1-18):

• Solid Green: When there is a secure 1000Mbps connection at the port.

• One Getting Started Guide

If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact the local reseller for replacement.


How do I install the D-LINK DGS-1100-18PV2 on a desktop or shelf?

When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the device must be attached on the bottom at each corner of the device’s base. Allow enough ventilation space between the device and the objects around it.

For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended that you:

• Visually inspect the power cord to see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector.

• Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.

• Do not place heavy objects on the switch.


How do I install the D-LINK DGS-1100-18PV2 in a rack?

The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 19-inch rack. To install, attach the mounting brackets to the switch’s side panels (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided. Then, use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack.

Please be aware of the following safety instructions when installing:

A) Elevated Operating Ambient – If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

B) Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

C) Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

D) Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

E) Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).”
