Chapter 4 Install Stratix 5410 Switches
Attach the Alarm Relay
Connector to the Switch Insert the alarm relay RJ45 connector into the receptacle on the switch front
panel.
Connect to 10/100/1000
Ethernet, PoE/PoE+ Ports The 10/100/1000 ports on the switch automatically configure themselves to
operate at the speed of attached devices. If the attached ports do not support
autonegotiation, you can explicitly set the speed and duplex parameters.
Connecting devices that do not autonegotiate or that have their speed and
duplex parameters that are manually set can reduce performance or result in no
linkage.
The Auto-MDIX feature is enabled by default. Unless this feature is disabled,
you can use either straight-through or crossover cables to connect to other
devices on the network.
To maximize performance, choose one of these methods for configuring the
Ethernet ports:
• Let the ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex
• Set the port speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the
connection
