Cabling Guidelines

The RJ-45 ports on the switch support au tomatic MDI/MDI-X pinout

configuration, so you can use standard straight-through twisted-pair cables

to connect to any other network device (PCs, servers, switches, routers, or

hubs).

See Appendix B for further information on cabling.

Caution: Do not plug a normal phone jack connector into an RJ-45

port. This will damage the switch. Use only twisted-pair cables

with RJ-45 connectors that conform to FCC standards.

Connecting to PCs, Servers, Hubs and Switches

1. Attach one end of a twisted -pair cable segment to the device’s RJ-45

connector.
