3. Танзимот
The MS116GS switch is designed for easy installation. No software configuration is required.
3.1 Насби ҷисмонӣ
- Ҷойгиршавӣ: Place the switch on a stable, flat surface, such as a desktop, or mount it in a rack. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device.
- Пайвасти барқ: Connect the provided power adapter to the switch's power port and then plug the adapter into a standard electrical outlet. The Power LED on the front panel should illuminate.
- Пайвастагиҳои шабакавӣ: Connect your network devices (e.g., computers, printers, IP cameras, routers) to any of the 16 RJ45 ports using Ethernet cables. The corresponding Link/Act LED for each connected port will light up, indicating an active connection.

3.2 Нишондиҳандаҳои LED
The front panel features LED indicators to monitor the switch's status:
- LED барқ:
- Фаъол: Калид фаъол аст.
- Хомӯш: Калид хомӯш аст.
- Link/Act LEDs (for each port):
- On: A device is connected to the corresponding port.
- Flashing: Data is being transmitted or received through the corresponding port.
- Хомӯш: Ягон дастгоҳ ба порти мувофиқ пайваст нашудааст.
4. Дастурҳои истифодабарӣ
The MS116GS switch operates automatically once connected. It supports two special modes: Isolation Mode and Loop Prevention Mode, which can be activated via physical switches on the device.

Расми 4.1: Close-up of the mode switches for Isolation and Loop Prevention, located on the right side of the switch.
4.1 Isolation Mode
Isolation Mode allows for one-click client traffic separation. When enabled, ports 1-14 are isolated from each other, preventing them from communicating directly. All isolated ports can still communicate with ports 15-16 (uplink ports). This mode enhances security and performance by preventing broadcast storms and improving LAN security.
- To enable Isolation Mode: Set the "Isolation" switch to the "On" position.
- To disable Isolation Mode: Set the "Isolation" switch to the "Off" position (Default Mode).
4.2 Loop Prevention Mode
Loop Prevention Mode automatically detects and blocks network loops. A network loop occurs when there are multiple paths between two network devices, which can cause broadcast storms and network instability. When a loop is detected, the switch will block the corresponding port to prevent network disruption.
- To enable Loop Prevention Mode: Set the "Loop Prevention" switch to the "On" position.
- To disable Loop Prevention Mode: Set the "Loop Prevention" switch to the "Off" position (Default Mode).
5. Нигоҳдорӣ
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your MS116GS switch.
- Тозакунӣ: Қисми берунии калидро мунтазам бо матои нарм ва хушк тоза кунед. Аз тозакунандаҳои моеъ ё аэрозолӣ истифода набаред.
- Вентилятсия: Ensure that the ventilation holes on the sides of the switch are not obstructed. Proper airflow is crucial for heat dissipation.
- Таъмини нерӯ: Use only the power adapter provided with the switch. Using an incorrect power adapter may damage the device.
- Муҳити зист: Operate the switch within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
6. Баррасии мушкилот
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your MS116GS switch.
6.1 Power LED is Off
- Боварӣ ҳосил кунед, ки адаптери барқ ба коммутатор ва васлаки барқии корӣ боэътимод пайваст шудааст.
- Verify that the power outlet is functioning correctly by plugging in another device.
6.2 Link/Act LED is Off for a Connected Device
- Санҷед, ки сими Ethernet ба ҳам порти коммутатор ва ҳам ба дастгоҳи шабакавӣ боэътимод пайваст карда шудааст.
- Боварӣ ҳосил кунед, ки дастгоҳи пайвастшуда фурӯзон аст ва адаптери шабакавии он дуруст кор мекунад.
- Try a different Ethernet cable or a different port on the switch.
- Verify that the cable length does not exceed the maximum recommended length (typically 100 meters for Ethernet).
6.3 Суръати сусти шабака
- Ensure all connected devices and cables support Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) for optimal performance.
- Check for network loops. If Loop Prevention Mode is off, consider enabling it.
- If Isolation Mode is enabled, ensure it is not inadvertently affecting communication between devices that need to interact directly.
- Restart the switch and connected devices.
