Installation
Connect Devices to the Switch
1. Connect devices to the RJ-45 network ports on the switch front panel.
Ports 1 through 8 support 1G, 100M, and 10M. Ports 9 and 10
support 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M. Use the cables that we
recommend on the other side of this installation guide.
2. Connect one RJ-45 port on the switch to a network. In a high-speed
network, use port 9 or 10.
Note:
In a small office or home office network, connect the switch to the LAN
port of a router that, in turn, is connected to an Internet modem.
