The Workgroup GigaSwitch’s Ports

GigaSwitch	The GigaSwitch port is used to connect to the PC
	into which you have installed an Instant Gigabit
	Network Adapter. Or, it can be used to expand your
	network by connecting to a 1000Mbps hub or
	switch, which is done by simply running a Category
	5e crossover cable from the GigaSwitch port to the
	uplink port on the 1000Mbps hub or switch. When
	connecting to an Instant Gigabit Network Adapter,
	just plug one end of a Category 5e crossover cable
	into the RJ-45 port on the Adapter and the other end
	into the GigaSwitch port on the GigaSwitch.
Ports 1-8	These eight LAN (Local Area Network) ports con-
	nect to network devices, such as PCs, print servers,
	network attached storage, and remote hard drives at
	10/100Mbps.
Power	The Power port is where you will connect the
	power adapter.
