INSTALLING THE SWITCH

Note: If an attached device does not support auto-negotiation, the data rate will be sensed automatically and the communication mode will default to half duplex.

4.Cascading Switches and Other Network Devices: All the ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration for cable connections. This allows you to use straight-through cable to connect to other switches or hubs from any port on the switch. No crossover cables or other device settings are needed. See the “Cable Specifications” on page 9 of this guide for further information.

Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. This may damage the switch. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
