CONNECTING THE

SWITCH

This chapter describes how to connect the DES-3208 to your Fast Ethernet network.

PC to Switch

A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP /STP straight cable. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10/100 Mbps jack) should be connected to any of the eight ports (1x - 8x) of the DES-3208.
