3.6 Cabling
Use four twisted-pair, Category 5e or above cabling for RJ-45 port connection. The cable between •
the switch and the link partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters
(328 ft.) long.
Fiber segment using • single-modeconnectortype mustuse9/125 µmsingle-modeber cable.
User can connect two devices in the distance up to 30km.
Fiber segment using • multi-modeconnectortypemustuse50or62.5/125µmmulti-modeber
cable. User can connect two devices up to 2km distances.
Gigabit Copper/SFP (SFP) combo port:•
The Industrial switch has the auto-detected Giga port—Gigabit Copper/SFP combo ports. The Gigabit
Copper (10/100/1000T) ports should use Category 5e or above UTP/STP cable for the connection
up to 1000Mbps. The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communications. The SFP slots supporting dual
mode can switch the connection speed between 100 and 1000Mbps. They are used for connecting to
thenetworksegmentwithsingleormulti-modeber.YoucanchoosetheappropriateSFPtransceiver

the system.
[note]
The SFP/Copper Combo port can’t both work at the same time. The SFP port
has the higher priority than copper port; if you insert the 1000M SFP transceiver
(whichhasconnectedtotheremotedeviceviabercable)intotheSFPport,the
connection of the accompanying copper port will link down.
If you insert the 100MSFPtransceiverintotheSFPportevenwithoutaber
connection to the remote, the connection of the accompanying copper port will
link down immediately.
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown below:
First, insert the transceiver into the SFP module. Notice that the triangle mark is the bottom of the
module.
