2. Connecting to network devices
The RJ-45 ports on the switch support Auto-MDI/MDI-X function which allows using
straight-through or cross-over type cables to connect this switch to workstation or hub.
Connect one end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the rear panel, and connect
the other end of the network cable to the RJ-45 port on the network device. Follow the
same procedure to connect all the RJ-45 ports of the switch.
The UTP network cables must comply with EIA/TIA 568 specifications and Category 5
standard for 100Mbps 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.
