specifications and Category 5 standard for 1000Mbps data transmission.
Maximum length, using UTP cable, between the switch and connected device
is 100 meters (300ft). Once the network cable is connected to both ends and
the attached network device is powered on, the green LNK/ACT LED should
be lit.
