The Workgroup GigaSwitch’s Ports
GigaSwitch The GigaSwitch port is used to connect to the PC
into which you have installed an Instant Gigabit
Network Adapter. Or, it can be used to expand your
network by connecting to a 1000Mbps hub or
switch, which is done by simply running a Category
5e crossover cable from the GigaSwitch port to the
uplink port on the 1000Mbps hub or switch. When
connecting to an Instant Gigabit Network Adapter,
just plug one end of a Category 5e crossover cable
into the RJ-45 port on the Adapter and the other end
into the GigaSwitch port on the GigaSwitch.
Ports 1-8 These eight LAN (Local Area Network) ports con-
nect to network devices, such as PCs, print servers,
network attached storage, and remote hard drives at
10/100Mbps.
Power The Power port is where you will connect the
power adapter.
