Installation
Mount and remove the product only when
power is disconnected.
Install the product on a load-bearing wall or
a pole (with optional pole mounting clamps).
Install the product in a level position with
the cable glands pointing downward.
For wall mounting, point the smooth side of
the mounting adapter towards you and
secure the adapter to the wall using four
dowels and M6 screws.
For pole mounting, point the ribbed side
towards you and assemble the adapter with
two pole clamps (inner openings for diameter
50-90mm and outer openings for diameter
90-250mm).
After the mounting adapter is secure, place
the EasyPoE Box onto the adapter from the
top until it is locked securely in place.
To remove the product, insert a screwdriver
through the opening on the rear side and lift
the snap-in latch out.
Guide cables through the cable glands by
loosening the nut and removing the seal
insert. Ensure that the seal insert tightly
encloses the cable.
Before connecting the power cord, make sure
power is disconnected. Connect a grounding
cable to the grounding screw. Connect the
conductors.
After connecting the power cord, press the
ON/OFF switch on the side of the power
supply to turn on the device.

Setting Static IP Address
The operating mode of the switch can be
changed via the Mode button.
If a DHCP server is not available, use the
following method to set up a static IP
address.
After the switch boots up, as soon as all LEDs
turn off, press and hold the Mode button for
at least 5 seconds.
Note that there is a limited amount of time
that the LEDs remain off and if LEDs come on
again, it will not be possible to change the
mode.
Once all LEDs are solid green, release the
button.
The “Exit without change” function is active
by default.
To select the static IP address function, press
the button to toggle between the functions
until the function is chosen.
Below is a table of the different functions
with the corresponding LED patterns.
To apply and save the setting, press and hold
the Mode button again for at least 5 seconds
until all LEDs are solid and release the
button.
In a web browser, type the static IP address
of http://192.168.0.254 in the address bar
and log in to the switch.
