Chapter 3: Connecting the Switch

www.gateway.com

Connecting to a network backbone 
or server

On all of the switches, any of the ports are satisfactory for uplinking to a 
network backbone or network server. On the Gateway 7201-24.2 switch, use 
one of the two Gigabit ports for optimum performance. These ports operate at 
1000 Mbps in full-duplex mode.

A valid connection is indicated when the Link LED is lit.
