2.6 Connecting to the Network

The switch may be connected to an Ethernet network with the unit powered on or off. Use the following procedure to make the network connections:

1.Connect the network devices to the switch, following the cable guidelines outlined below.

2.After the unit is connected to the network, it can be configured for management capabilities (see the following chapters for information on configuration).

2.6.110/100/1000BaseT Ports Cabling Procedures

The 10/100/1000 ports on the switch allow for the connection of 10BaseT, 100BaseTX, or 1000BaseT network devices. The ports are compatible with IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards.

Important: The switch must be located within 100 meters of its attached 10BaseT or 100BaseTX devices.

Use the following guidelines to determine the cabling requirements for the network devices:

•Connecting to Network Station: Category 5 UTP (Unshielded Twisted- Pair) straight-through cable (100 meters maximum) with RJ-45 connectors

•Connecting to Repeater/Hub/Switch’s Uplink port: Category 5, UTP straight-through cable (100 meters maximum) with RJ-45 connectors

Note: These switches have no specific uplink ports. All 10/100 ports on these switches are auto-sensing MDI/MDI-X. This advanced feature means that the

10/100 ports will automatically determine whether the device at the other end of the link is a hub, switch, or workstation, and adjust its signals accordingly.

Although 10/100BaseT requires only pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, Asanté strongly recommends cables with all 8 wires connected as shown in Table 2-2 below.

1000BaseT requires that all four pairs (8 wires) be connected correctly, using Category 5 or better Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable (to a distance of 100 meters). Table 2-1 shows the correct pairing of all eight wires.

Pin Number	Pair Number & Wire Colors
1	2 White/Orange
2	2 Orange/White
3	3 White/ Green
4	1 Blue/White
5	1 White/Blue
6	3 Green/White
7	4 White/Brown
8	4 Brown/White
