Cable Connection
Cable connections are dependent on the network configuration and N-Tron® Series 1000 model in use.
1.
For 10Base-T ports, plug a Category 3 (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector.
2.
For 100/1000Base-T ports, plug a Category 5e (or greater) twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector.
Connect the other end to the far end station. The total length should not exceed 100 meters.
3.
Verify that the LNK/ACT LEDs are ON once the connection has been completed.
4.
To connect any other port to another Switch or Repeater, use a standard Cat5e straight through or crossover
cable.
CAUTION:
Creating a port to port connection on the same switch (i.e. loop) is an illegal
operation and will create a broadcast storm which will crash the network!
ATTENTION:
Création d'un port de connexion du port sur l e même commutateur
(c.-à-boucle) est une opération illégale et va créer une tempête de diffusion qui va planter
le réseau!
