The Switch is powered from the AC mains supply.

The Switch provides high performance switched connections to 
10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps hubs, switches, servers 
and workstations that need a dedicated switched link. The 
following figure illustrates one possible configuration. Each port 
has a shielded RJ-45 connector on the front panel. Each port is 
capable of operating at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The 
ports can automatically determine the speed and the duplex 
mode of the connected equipment and provides a suitable 
switched connection. At 10 Mbps and at 100 Mbps, the ports 
can operate in half or full duplex mode. At 1000 Mbps, the
