rack-mount kit and your product are tightly conjoined before installing it on your 19-inch rack.
Ethernet cable Request
The wiring cable types are as below:
10 Base-T: 2-pair UTP/STP CAT. 3, 4, 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100m)
100 Base-TX: 2-pair UTP/STP CAT. 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100m)
1000 Base-T: 4-pair UTP/STP CAT. 5 cable, EIA/TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100m)
PoE: To delivery power properly, it is recommended to use CAT 5e and CAT 6 cable.
Ethernet cables of higher qualities can reduce the power lost during transmission.
SFP Installation
While install the SFP transceiver, make sure the SFP type of the 2 ends is the same and the
transmission distance, wavelength, fiber cable can meet your request. It is suggested to
purchase the SFP transceiver with the switch provider to avoid any incompatible issue.
The way to connect the SFP transceiver is to Plug in SFP fiber transceiver fist. The SFP
transceiver has 2 plug for fiber cable, one is TX (transmit), the other is RX (receive).
