UTP Connections

The following figure shows a UTP connection from TP port to another device via a straight-through UTP cable. When TP port of Port 2 is used, make sure Port 2 SW4 is set to OFF position.

Depending on the configuration switch setting, the operating modes used for connecting to different devices are shown as follows:

Connected Device	SW1 setting Port Operation Mode
10M Ethernet hub	AUTO	10BASE-T, half-duplex
100M Fast Ethernet hub	AUTO	100BASE-TX, half-duplex
10/100M dual speed hub	AUTO	100BASE-TX, half-duplex
10/100M NWay switch	AUTO	100BASE-TX, full-duplex
10/100M NWay NIC card	AUTO	100BASE-TX, full-duplex
10M Ethernet device	Non-auto	10BASE-T, half-duplex

* Note that all hub devices are half-duplex devices.

Compliant UTP Cables

Connection	UTP Cable Type	Maximum Length
10BASE-T	Cat. 3, 4, or 5	100 meters
100BASE-TX	Cat. 5	100 meters

When using a straight-through cable for the connection, make sure the MDI-X to MDI connection rule is followed.
