The switch contains five 1000BASE-TX RJ-45 ports. All ports support automatic
MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through cables for all network
connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.
Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission
mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10, 100 or 1000 Mbps) is selected
automatically.
Each port also supports IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of flow control, so the
switch can automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.
Port 1 on the switch supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE and can supply power to one
attached device. Ports 2-5 do not support PoE.

The switch must be powered with its supplied power adapter. Failure to do so
results in voiding of any warrantly supplied with the product. The power adapter
automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100~240 volts at 50 or 60 Hz, and
supplies 51 volts DC power to the unit. No voltage range settings are required.
