3.1 Cabling
Guidelines
Ports 1-24 are 10/100Mbps and will automatically sense network speeds
if set to the auto mode or can be forced set to a either network speed.
Ports 25 and 26 are 10/100/1000Mbps and can also be set to auto sense
speeds or forced speeds. Ports 25 and 26 can also be connected to
optional SFP transceivers and used as either copper or fiber ports, but not
at the same time.
Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ45
connectors at both ends. Use Category 5, 5e, or 6 cables for 1000BASE-
T connections, Category 5 or better for 100BASE-TX connections.
The RJ45 ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X pin-out
configuration. You can use standard straight-through twisted-pair cables
to connect to any other network devices (E.g. PCs, servers, switches,
routers, or hubs).
See Appendix B for further information on cabling.
CAUTION:
Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ45
port. This will damage the switch. Use only twisted-pair cables
with RJ45 connectors that conform to FCC standards.
3.2 Connecting to
PCs, Servers,
Hubs and
Switches
Step 1:
Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable segment to the device’s
RJ45 connector.
Figure 16: Making Twisted-Pair Connections
Step 2:
If the device is a network card and the switch is in the wiring
closet, attach the other end of the cable segment to a modular wall outlet
