This chapter describes how to connect the DES-1004/ DES-1008 to your Fast Ethernet network. In each of the following figures, the DES-1008 is shown; however, similar cable connections can be attained on the DES-1004 because of product similarities.

PC to Switch

A PC can be connected to the Switch via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP /STP straight cable. The PC (equipped with a RJ-45 10/100 Mbps jack) should be connected to any of the four ports (1x -4x) for the DES-1004 or eight ports (1x - 8x) for the DES-1008.
