Connecting Devices to the Switch

You can connect the BayStack 70 Series 10/100 Ethernet Switch to any device that conforms to the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standard, such as the following devices:

•Ethernet networking devices

•Individual workstations or servers

•Other switches, bridges, or hubs

The HDX/FDX LED on all BayStack 70 Series 10/100 Ethernet Switch front panels indicates whether the switch is operating in half- or full-duplex mode. When the HDX/FDX LED is on, the port is operating in full-duplex mode (meaning the port is operating at either 20 Mb/s or 200 Mb/s, depending on the connecting device). When the HDX/FDX LED is off, the port is operating in half-duplex mode, which is 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s.
