4. Nastavitev in namestitev
4.1 Varnostni ukrepi
- Prepričajte se, da je napajalnik voltage ustreza zahtevam stikala.
- Ne blokirajte prezračevalnih odprtin.
- Avoid placing the switch in direct sunlight, near heat sources, or in excessively humid environments.
- Uporabljajte samo priloženi napajalnik.
4.2 Fizična namestitev
The switch can be placed on a desktop, mounted on a wall, or installed in a rack, depending on your needs and the included accessories.
Postavitev na namizje:
Place the switch on a flat, stable surface. Attach the included rubber feet to the bottom of the switch to prevent slipping and provide stability.
Montaža na steno:
If wall mounting, use the provided mounting kit. Ensure the wall can support the weight of the switch and connected cables. Mark two points on the wall, drill holes, insert anchors, and secure the mounting screws, leaving a small gap for the switch's mounting slots.
4.3 Priključitev stikala
- Povežite omrežne naprave: Connect your network devices (computers, servers, IP cameras, Wi-Fi APs, VoIP phones, etc.) to any of the 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports using standard Ethernet cables. For PoE-powered devices, ensure they are PoE-compatible.
- Povežite se z napajanjem: Connect the provided power adapter to the switch's power input port on the rear panel, then plug the power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet.
- Preverite moč: Once powered on, the Power LED on the front panel should illuminate.

5. Upravljanje stikala
The TP-LINK Festa FS308G is an unmanaged switch, meaning it operates plug-and-play without requiring complex configuration. Once connected, it automatically detects network speeds and provides power to connected PoE devices.
5.1 LED Status Interpretation
- LED za napajanje:
- Na: Stikalo je vklopljeno.
- Izklop: Stikalo je izklopljeno.
- PoE MAX LED:
- Na: The total PoE power consumption is at or near the maximum budget.
- utripa: The total PoE power consumption has exceeded the maximum budget, and some PoE ports may be shut down.
- Izklop: PoE power consumption is within normal limits.
- PoE Status LEDs (per port):
- Na: The port is supplying PoE power to a connected device.
- Izklop: The port is not supplying PoE power.
- Speed/Link/Act LEDs (per port):
- Zelena (trdna): A Gigabit (1000Mbps) link is established.
- Zelena (utripa): Podatki se prenašajo ali prejemajo z gigabitno hitrostjo.
- Jantarna (trdna): A 10/100Mbps link is established.
- Amber (Flashing): Data is being transmitted or received at 10/100Mbps speed.
- Izklop: No device is connected to the port, or the connected device is powered off.
6. Vzdrževanje
6.1 Čiščenje
- Pred čiščenjem vedno odklopite napajanje.
- Za brisanje zunanjosti stikala uporabite mehko, suho krpo.
- Ne uporabljajte tekočih ali aerosolnih čistil.
6.2 Okoljski vidiki
- Ensure adequate ventilation around the switch to prevent overheating.
- Operate the switch within the specified temperature and humidity ranges (refer to Specifications section).
6.3 Ponastavitev stikala
If the switch is not functioning correctly, you can perform a factory reset. With the switch powered on, use a paperclip or similar pointed object to press and hold the Reset button on the front panel for approximately 5-10 seconds until the LEDs flash. The switch will then reboot with factory default settings.
7. Odpravljanje težav
7.1 Brez napajanja
- Ensure the power cord is securely connected to the switch and the power outlet.
- Preverite, ali vtičnica deluje.
- Preverite, ali napajalnik deluje pravilno.
7.2 Ni povezave/aktivnosti na vratih
- Preverite povezavo ethernetnega kabla na obeh koncih. Poskusite z drugim kablom.
- Prepričajte se, da je priključena naprava vklopljena in deluje pravilno.
- Verify that the network adapter of the connected device is enabled.
- Poskusite priključiti napravo na druga vrata na stikalu.
7.3 Počasna hitrost omrežja
- Ensure all connected devices and cables support Gigabit Ethernet for optimal performance.
- Preverite, ali je v omrežju preobremenjen promet ali ali so v uporabi aplikacije, ki intenzivno uporabljajo pasovno širino.
- Verify that the Speed/Link/Act LED for the port indicates a Gigabit connection (Green).
7.4 Naprava PoE ne prejema napajanja
- Ensure the connected device is a PoE-compatible device (PD).
- Check the PoE Status LED for the port; it should be On.
- Verify that the total PoE power consumption is not exceeding the switch's budget (check PoE MAX LED). If it's flashing, disconnect some PoE devices or use a higher-power PoE switch.
- Poskusite z drugim ethernetnim kablom.
