Connecting your Switch to your Computers
1.
Power down all your equipment.
2.
Connect a Category 5e or 6 Ethernet cable between each
computer’s network interface card (NIC) and one of the
numbered ports on the front of the Switch.
3.
All switch ports can automatically negotiate speeds at full- and
half-duplex modes to allow users to attach 10Base-T,
100Base-Tx, and 1000Base-T network devices.
4.
Connect the power cord into the power socket in the rear of the
Switch; now plug the other end of the power cord into a power
source (wall jack or power strip).
