Straight-through Cable Connection for Switch-to-Switch/hub
Connection
Use a straight-through cable for the connection made through the station port of
Live-FSH5R
to any
station port of the other switch/hub. Since
Live-FSH5R
Switch is capable of
auto-crossing over
by
its Auto-MDI and Auto-MDI-X function, you don’t have to use a crossover cable such as is usually
required for this kind of switch-to-switch/hub connection with other switch.
