2.4 Network Connection
The EKI-4524RI/4524ARI has 24 x RJ-45 ports that support connection to 10 Mbps Ethernet, or 100
Mbps Fast Ethernet, and half or full duplex operation. EKI-4524RI/4524ARI can be connected to other
hubs or switches via a twisted-pair straight-through or crossover cable up to 100m long. The connection
can be made from any TX port of the EKI-4524RI/4524ARI (MDI-X) to another hub or switch either MDI-X
or uplink MDI port.
The EKI-4524RI/4524ARI supports auto-crossover to make networking more easy and flexible. You can
connect any RJ-45 (MDI-X) station port on the switch to any device such as a switch, bridge or router.
2.5 Connection to a Fiber Optic Network
EKI-4524RI/4524ARI has two SFP slots for connecting to the network segment with single or multi-mode
fiber. You can choose appropriate mini-GBIC transceiver to plug into the slot. Make sure the transceiver
is aligned correctly and then slide the transceiver into the SFP slot until a click is heard. You can use
proper multi-mode or single-mode fiber according to the used SFP transceiver. With fiber optic, it
transmits speed up to 1,00 Mbps and you can prevent noise interference from the system and
transmission distance up to 110 km, depending on the mini-GBIC transceiver.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical communications
for both telecommunication and data communications applications.
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown below:
First, insert the transceiver into the SFP slot. Note that the location of the triangle indicates the bottom of
the slot.
