ServSwitch Agility and Agility Dual

3.2.6 Local/Remote Network Link

ServSwitch Agility (and Agility Dual) units can be either connected directly to each other or via a Gigabit Ethernet network. Additionally, Agility Dual units can be networked by fiber optic links.

For direct links over Ethernet cable, the length of cable should not exceed 328 feet (100 metres). Network cables used for connections may be category 5, 5e, 6 or 7 twisted-pair cable. The Local units have an autosensing capability on their network interfaces, so for direct point-to-point connections, no ‘crossover’ Ethernet cable is required.

For direct links over fiber optic links, either multimode or single mode modules can be fitted to ServSwitch Agility Dual units as appropriate to the installation conditions. The fiber cable must be a crossover cable.

3.2.6.1 To link Agility (and Agility Dual) units using Gigabit Ethernet

1 Connect a CAT 5, 5e, 6, or 7 cable to the socket on the front panel of the ServSwitch Agility unit. See Figure 3-12.

Figure 3-12. CAT 5, 5e, 6, or 7 link either directly from the other

ServSwitch Agility unit or from a Gigabit Ethernet switch.

2Connect the other end of the cable either to the other ServSwitch Agility unit or to a Gigabit Ethernet switch, as appropriate.

3[For connections via a network] repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other ServSwitch Agility unit.
