This chapter describes how to connect the DES-1004/ DES-1008 to your Fast
Ethernet network. In each of the following figures, the DES-1008 is shown;
however, similar cable connections can be attained on the DES-1004 because
of product similarities.
PC to Switch
A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP
/STP straight cable. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10/100 Mbps jack)
should be connected to any of the four ports (1x -4x) for the DES-1004 or
eight ports (1x - 8x) for the DES-1008.
