Straight Through Cable Schematic
Cross Over Cable Schematic
2 Gigabit Copper/SFP (Mini-GBIC) combo port:
The Industrial switch has two auto-detected Giga port—UTP/STP/Fiber combo ports.
The Gigabit Copper (10/100/1000T) ports should use Category 5e or above UTP/STP
cable for the connection up to 1000Mbps. The SFP slots supporting dual mode can
switch the connection speed between 100 and 1000Mbps. They are for connecting to
the network segment with single or multi-mode fiber. You can choose the appropriate
mini-GBIC module to plug into the slots. You can use proper multi-mode or single-mode
fiber according to the used SFP module. With fiber optic, it transmits speed up to 1000
Mbps and you can prevent noise interference from the system and transmission distance
up to 110 km, depending on the mini-GBIC module.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communications applications.
Note
The SFP/Copper Combo module can’t both be used at the same time. The
SFP module has the higher priority than copper module; if you insert the
1000M SFP transceiver into the SFP module which is connected to the remote
device, the connection of the accompanying copper port will link down.
If you insert the 100M SFP transceiver into the SFP module even without a
fiber connection to the remote, the connection of the accompanying copper
port will link down immediately.
