GRANDSTREAM GWN7806 Enterprise Layer 2 Plus Stackable Managed Network

Switch Instruction Manual

OVERVIEW

The GWN7806(P) is layer 2+ stackable managed switch that allows small-to- medium enterprises to build scalable, secure, high performance and smart business networks that are fully manageable. It supports advanced VLAN for flexible and sophisticated traffic segmentation, advanced QoS for priori- tization of network traffic, IGMP/MLD Snooping for network performance optimization, and compre- hensive security capabilities against potential attacks. The GWN7806P provides smart dynamic PoE output to power IP phones, IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points and other PoE endpoints. GWN7806(P) is easy to deploy and manage, including managed by the local Web user interface of the GWN7806(P) switch and CLI, the command-line interface. The switch is also supported by GWN.Cloud and GWN Manager, Grandstream’s cloud and on-premise network management platform. The GWN7806(P) is the best value enterprise-grade managed network switch for small-to-medium businesses.

POWERING & CONNECTING

Grounding the Switch

1. Remove the ground screw from the back of switch, and connect one end of the ground cable to the wiring terminal of
2. Put the ground screw back into the screw hole, and tighten it with a screwdriver.
   

Notes:

• Please select the optical fiber cable according to the module The multi-mode module corresponds to the multi-mode optical fiber, and the single-mode module corresponds to the single-mode optical fiber.
• Please select the same wavelength optical fiber cable for
• Please select an appropriate optical module according to the actual networking situation to meet different transmission distance

3. Connect the other end of the ground cable to other device Ground Bar __ that has been grounded or directly to the terminal of the ground bar in the equipment room.

Powering on the Switch

Connect the power cable and the switch first, then connect the power cable to the power supply system of the equipment room.

Connecting Power Cord Anti-Trip

In order to protect the power supply from accidental disconnection, it’s recommended to use a power cord anti-trip for installation.

1. Force the head of the fixing strap tightly into the hole next to the power socket until it’s buckled on the shell without falling
2. After plugging the power cord into the power outlet, slide the protector over the remaining strap until it slides over the end of the power
3. Wrap the strap of the protective cord around the power cord and lock it tightly. Fasten the straps until the power cord is securely fastened.

PORT CONNECTING

In order to protect the power supply from accidental disconnection, it’s recommended to use a power cord anti-trip for installation.

1. Force the head of the fixing strap tightly into the hole next to the power socket until it’s buckled on the shell without falling
2. After plugging the power cord into the power outlet, slide the protector over the remaining strap until it slides over the end of the power
3. Wrap the strap of the protective cord around the power cord and lock it tightly. Fasten the straps until the power cord is securely fastened.

Connect to RJ45 Port

1. Connect one end of the network cable to the switch, and the other end to the peer
2. After powered on, check the status of the
