Port connectors
The Ethernet Switch 325 uses 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 (8-pin modular)
port connectors.
The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port connectors are configured as MDI-X (Media
Dependent Interface-crossover). These ports are connected by straight cables
to the Network Interface Card (NIC) in a node or a server, similar to a
conventional Ethernet repeater hub. If you are connecting to an Ethernet hub or
Ethernet switch, use a crossover cable unless an MDI connection exists on the
associated port of the attached device (For more information see
“Connectors and pin assignments,” on page 425
).
The Ethernet Switch 325 uses autosensing ports designed to operate at 10 Mb/s
(megabits per second) or at 100 Mb/s, depending on the connecting device. These
ports support the IEEE 802.3u autonegotiation standard, which means that when a
port is connected to another device which also supports the IEEE 802.3u standard,
the two devices negotiate the best speed and duplex mode.
The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX switch ports also support half- and full-duplex
mode operation.
The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 switch ports can connect to 10 Mb/s or 100
Mb/s Ethernet segments or nodes.
For more information on RJ-45 port connectors see

shows the LED display panel of the Ethernet Switch 325-24G. See
for a description of the LEDs.
Note:
Use only Category 5 copper Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
cable connections when connecting 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports.
