3. Керування комутатором
Once connected, the TL-SG105-M2 operates automatically. It is an unmanaged switch, meaning it requires no user configuration for basic network functionality. The auto-negotiation feature ensures optimal performance for all connected devices by automatically adjusting link speeds (100Mb/1G/2.5G).
Світлодіодні індикатори:
- Світлодіод живлення: Indicates the power status of the switch. On: Power on. Off: Power off.
- Link/Act LEDs (Left LED - Green): On: Running at 2.5 Gbps. Blinking: Transmitting/receiving data.
- Link/Act LEDs (Right LED - Green): On: Running at 1 Gbps. Blinking: Transmitting/receiving data.
- Link/Act LEDs (Right LED - Yellow): On: Running at 100 Mbps. Blinking: Transmitting/receiving data.
The fanless design of the switch ensures silent operation, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments like homes and offices. Its durable metal casing also contributes to good heat dissipation, maintaining stable performance.

4. Технічне обслуговування
The TP-Link TL-SG105-M2 is designed for minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- Keep the device in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating, although its fanless design aids in heat dissipation.
- Regularly clean the exterior of the switch with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust accumulation.
- Уникайте розміщення важких предметів на перемикачі.
- Ensure all cable connections are secure and undamaged.
5. Вирішення проблем
If you encounter issues with your TL-SG105-M2 switch, consider the following:
- Немає живлення: Check if the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and the power outlet. Ensure the power outlet is functional.
- Світлодіодний індикатор відсутності з’єднання/активності: Verify that the Ethernet cables are correctly plugged into both the switch and the connected device. Try using a different Ethernet cable or connecting to a different port on the switch. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly.
- Низька швидкість мережі: Confirm that your connected devices and cables support 2.5G speeds. While the switch supports auto-negotiation, older cables (e.g., Cat5) might limit performance. Ensure your router/modem is providing the expected internet speed.
- Переривчасте підключення: Перевірте наявність нещільних кабельних з'єднань. Переконайтеся, що комутатор не розташований поблизу джерел сильних електромагнітних перешкод.
