How to install Luxul XMS-2624P

• Plan your deployment: Assess your space and determine where the switch will live. Identify the locations for PoE devices (cameras, phones, APs) and map out the cable routes to the core network. Consider a rack-mountable setup or a stable shelf to ensure proper airflow and easy access for maintenance.
• Power and placement: Place the switch in a safe, ventilated area and connect it to a reliable power source. Ensure that the total PoE load on each PoE port does not exceed the 370W budget across all devices plugged in. Avoid stacking heavy loads on a single outlet to prevent outages.
• Connect to the network: Connect the two Gigabit uplink ports to your router or core switch using high-quality Cat5e or better Ethernet cables. This establishes a fast path for management traffic and data flowing to and from PoE devices.
• Attach PoE devices: Plug PoE-enabled devices into the 24 PoE+ ports. Verify that each device powers on correctly and begins receiving network connectivity. Start with a small subset to test stability before expanding deployment.
• Access the management interface: Use a computer on the same network to access the switch’s management interface. This typically involves discovering the device on the network or entering its IP address in a web browser. Log in with the default credentials provided by Luxul and proceed to configure the network settings.
• Configure network settings: Create your desired network topology, apply VLANs as needed, and configure quality of service (QoS) policies to prioritize critical traffic (such as VoIP or video streams). Set up access controls, security features, and monitoring alerts to maintain network health.
• Test and monitor: After configuration, test connectivity across PoE devices and uplinks. Monitor PoE budget usage to ensure devices receive sufficient power and adjust allocations if needed. Regularly check the management interface for alerts or performance metrics to prevent issues before they impact users.
