Connecting network devices

Brocade devices support connections to other vendors’ routers, switches, and hubs, as well other
Brocade devices.

Cable specifications

Refer to

“Cable specifications”

on page 168 for cable lengths and types.

Connecting to Ethernet or fast Ethernet hubs

For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100Base-TX or 1000Base-T switch, or another
Brocade device, a crossover cable is required (

Figure 36

and

Figure 37

). If the hub is equipped with

an uplink port, it will require a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.
