EtherFast® Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch

The RJ-45 Ports

The EtherFast® Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch is equipped with twenty-four 10/100 RJ-45 ports. These RJ-45 ports support network speeds of either 10-100Mbps in half-duplex mode, or 20-200Mbps in full-duplex mode. Auto-sensing technology enables each port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10Mbps or 100Mbps), and adjust its speed and duplex accordingly.

To connect a device to a port, you will need to use a network cable. If you are using 100BaseTX devices you will need to use UTP Category 5 (or better) cable. The two Gigabit ports require UTP Category 5e cable (or better).

The Gigabit Ports

The EtherFast® Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch is equipped with two Gigabit ports. These ports provide links to high-speed network segments or individual workstations at speeds of up to 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet).

The two Gigabit ports require UTP Category 5e cable (or better).

The Console Port

The EtherFast® Managed 24-Port with Dual Gigabit Switch is equipped with a serial port (located on the rear of the switch) that allows you to connect to a computer (for configuration purposes) using the provided serial cable.
