Ethernet ports. These 24 PoE ports will be automatically activated when a compatible terminal is identiﬁed. The Switch will supply power through the PoE port to the connected PD.

For Legacy devices that are not yet compatible, the PoE port will not offer the power to these devices. This feature allows users to freely and safely mix legacy and Power over Ethernet compatible devices on their network.

The Switch supports 10Mbps Ethernet or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and it runs both in half- and full- duplex mode using two pairs of Category 5 cables.

The Switch also supports 2 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports; When using the RJ-45 ports, it runs in Auto-negotiation mode and 10Mbps Ethernet or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet that runs both in half and full duplex mode and 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet runs in full duplex mode using four pair Category 5.

These RJ-45 ports are Auto-MDI type port. The Switch can auto transform to MDI-II or MDI-X type, so you can just make an easy connection that without worrying if you are using a standard or crossover RJ-45 cable.
