Connecting To Network Backbone or Server

NOTE: All high-performance N-Way Ethernet ports can support both MDI-

II and MDI-X connections.

Switch to End Node

End nodes include PCs outfitted with a 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps RJ 45 Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) and most routers.

An end node can be connected to the Switch via a twisted-pair UTP/STP cable. The end node should be connected to any of the 10/100BASE-T ports of the Switch.

Figure 3- 1. Switch connected to an end node

The Link/Act LEDs for each UTP port will light green or amber when the link is valid. A blinking LED indicates packet activity on that port.
