FEATURES AND BENEFITS
C
ONNECTIVITY
24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps ports for easy Gigabit Ethernet integration and
for protection of your investment in legacy LAN equipment.
Auto-negotiation enables each RJ-45 port
to
automatically
select the
optimum communication mode (half or full duplex ) if this feature is
supported by the attached device; otherwi s e the por t c an be confi gur ed
manually.
RJ-45 10/100/1000BASE-T ports support auto MDI/MDI-X pinout selection.
Unshielded (UTP) cable supported on all RJ-4 5 po r ts : Category 3 or better
for 10 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better for 100 Mbps connections,
and Category Category 5, 5e, 6 or better for 10 0 0 M bps c o n necti o ns .
