Connecting to the Network
After the DGS-1052X has been successfully installed,
the switch can be integrated with the network
through any of the following connection methods:
Switch to End Device
Any port on the switch can be connected to an end
device, although the 10/100/1000 Mbps access
ports will generally be used for this purpose. Use
a standard Category 5/6/7 RJ-45 Ethernet cable to
connect the end device to the switch. The port will
auto-negotiate to the highest possible port speed
based on the connected device.
Switch to Switch
The switch will generally be connected to another
switch using the 10 Gbps SFP+ uplink ports. Use a
compatible SFP+ adapter to connect the switch to
another switch, using either fiber cables or a DAC.
The port will negotiate at 10 Gbps full-duplex.
Note: the maximum length of DAC cable supported
is 1 meter.
