10 Mbps	Standard TIA/EIA 568-B-compliant	100 m (328 ft)
	Category 3 or better shielded or
	unshielded cabling with 100 ohm
	impedance and a frequency of 16
	MHz.
100 Mbps	Standard TIA/EIA 568-A-compliant	100 m (328 ft)
	Category 5 or TIA/EIA 568-B-
	compliant Enhanced Category 5
	(Cat 5e) shielded or unshielded
	cabling with 100 ohm impedance
	and a frequency of 100 MHz.
1000 Mbps	Standard TIA/EIA 568-A-compliant	100 m (328 ft)
	Category 5 or TIA/EIA 568-B-
	compliant Enhanced Category 5
	(Cat 5e) shielded or unshielded
	cabling with 100 ohm impedance
	and a frequency of 100 MHz.

Note

The twisted pair ports on the switch feature auto-MDI when operating at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps. A port is configured as MDI or MDI-X when it is connected to an end node. Consequently, you can use a straight-through twisted pair cable when connecting any type of network device to a port on the switch.
