As Figure 2-1 shows, the Model FS518T switch is equipped with 16 auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet UTP ports. The network access speed for the 10/100 Mbps ports is automatically sensed and displayed on the front panel by the 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Link LEDs.
The 10/100 Mbps ports support only UTP cable using an 8-pin RJ-45 plug. Each of the 10/100 Mbps ports uses vista RJ-45 connectors that have built-in LEDs, as illustrated in Figure 2-2. The LEDs, as described in Table 2-1 on page 2-5, indicate that the connection to the port is valid and that the port is operating at either 10 or 100 Mbps.
For further information about the vista RJ-45 connector and the RJ-45 plug, refer to Appendix B, “Connector Pin Assignments,” and Appendix C, “Cabling Guidelines.”
