INTRODUCTION

Front Panel RJ-45 Ports

The EZ Switch 10/100/1000 features 16/24 1000BASE-T ports with RJ-45 connectors located on the front panel of the switch. Because all ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

Front Panel LEDs
