For RJ-45 port connection, prepare twisted-paired, straight through Category 5/5e or above cables for Ethernet
connection. The linking distance between the switch and the network device must be less than 100 meters (328
ft.).
For 10Mbps connections, use 100
Ω
Category 3, 4 or 5 cables.
For 100Mbps connections, use 100
Ω
Category 5/5e cables.
The UTP port (RJ-45) LED(s) on the switch will light up when the cable is connected with the network device.
Please refer to the LED Indicators section for more information.
Before connecting any network device, make sure network devices support auto MDI/MDI-X.
If not support, use the cross over Category 5/5e cables.
After all wiring and connection are done and the LED lights on the switch’s front panel show normal status, the
hardware installation is complete.
