Cables

When connecting a twisted pair cable to a port, observe the following guidelines:

ˆAn RJ-45 connector should fit snugly into the port on the switch. The tab on the connector should lock the connector into place.

ˆThe ports on the switch are auto-MDI/MDI-X. You can use either a straight-through or crossover twisted pair cable to connect any type of network device to a port on the switch.

ˆThe network should not contain data loops, which can adversely affect network performance. A data loop exists when two or more network devices can communicate with each other over more than one data path.

Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock, the PoE ports on this product must not connect to cabling that is routed outside the building where this device is located.  E40

2.Connect the other end of the twisted pair cable to a port in the end node.

To connect a fiber optic cable to an SFP installed in the AT-FS750/24POE Fast Ethernet Smart switch, perform the following procedure:
