5 Port Gigabit Switch USB Mini
Item no. 62 73 92
Intended use
The product is intended for cable-based networking of computers or other devices suitable for
the purpose. 5 twisted-pair connections (RJ45) are available.
Voltage/power is supplied via USB; suitable cable is enclosed. Alternatively, an external wall
plug transformer may be used as well (not included in the delivery, can be ordered separately).
Always observe the safety instructions and all other information included in these operating
instructions.
This product complies with the applicable national and European requirements. All names of

Safety Instructions
The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe
these safety instructions! We do not assume any liability for any resulting
damage!
We shall not accept liability for damage to property or personal injury caused
by incorrect handling or non-compliance with the safety instructions! In such
cases, the warranty will be null and void.
• The unauthorised conversion and/or modifi cation of the product is not permitted for
safety and approval reasons (CE).
• The product is not a toy and should be kept out of the reach of children.
• The product is intended for use only in dry, indoor locations. The product must not
get damp or wet.
• Do not leave packaging material carelessly lying around, since it could become a
dangerous plaything for children.
• Handle the product with care; it can be damaged by impacts, blows, or accidental
falls, even from a low height.
Getting Started, Connection
• If desired, attach either the rubber feet or the magnets included in the delivery to the bottom.
The switch can be fastened to a suitable metal surface (e.g. steel plate PC housing) using the
magnets.
• Connect the round low-voltage socket of the switch to a USB port on your computer or to a
USB hub using the USB power cable provided.
The USB port must be a so-called high-power USB port, which can supply a current
of 500 mA. This is e.g. the USB port of a computer or a USB hub with an inherent
power supply.
The USB port on a keyboard, or a USB hub without a power adapter, does not
supply suffi cient current; the switch cannot be used in these cases!
As an alternative to the enclosed USB power cable, an external wall plug transformer may
also be used (not included, can be ordered separately). This must supply an output voltage
of +5 V/DC and a current of at least 500 mA.
The round low-voltage plug must have an external diameter of 3.5 mm and an internal
diameter of 1.3 mm. Pay attention to the correct polarity of the plug, the exterior contact is the
minus pole (-) and the interior contact is the plus pole (+).
• The RJ45 connections of the network switch must be connected to the appropriate RJ45
sockets of the network cards (or another network switch) using suitable network cables (we
recommend CAT5e).
The network switch supplied has automatic uplink recognition for each port, which
allows for particularly simple wiring to other switches. A cross-link cable is no longer
required; you can use a conventional 1:1 connected network cable.
Maintenance and cleaning
www.conrad.com
• The product does not require any maintenance and should never be disassembled for any
reason.
Version 08/13
• Disconnect the product from the power supply before cleaning (all network connections will
cease to function).
• Use a clean, dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, cleaning alcohol or other chemical solutions, since
these could damage the housing or even impair operation.
• Dust can easily be removed using a clean, soft and long-bristled brush and a vacuum cleaner.
• Do not press too strongly on the surface when cleaning, to prevent scratch marks.
Tips & Notes
• If you have your own network or system administrator for your network (as will probably be
the case in a larger company), please let this person assume the responsibility for connection
and wiring. Do not connect the network switch yourself!
• The twisted-pair cable (also called a patch cable) between the network switch and the device
to be connected should have a max. length of 100 m. Use only so-called CAT5e cables that
are fully wired (all 8 contacts of the RJ45 connector are connected 1:1).
• The maximum theoretical data transfer rate of 10, 100 or 1000MBit/s is usually not achieved
in practice (e.g. 1000MBit = approx. 125MByte/s). During data transmission, not only data,
but also protocol information etc. is transmitted, data packages must be repeated or different
computers may want to transmit data at the same time. Furthermore, the data, for example,
may need to be read off the hard disk of one computer and written onto the hard disk of
another computer.
• If the network switch is not supplied with power, all the connections will be out of operation. A
network connection is not possible.
• The Link/Act LED belonging to each RJ45 port is lit during an active network connection and
fl ashes during data transfer. The power LED is lit when the network switch is supplied with
power.
