Connecting the switch to the network through a copper Ethernet port

The 10/100/1000Base-T copper ports of the switch support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing. They are connected to the network through category-5 or above twisted pairs that are equipped with RJ-45 connectors.


[NOTE: ]

NOTE:

No Ethernet twisted pair cables are shipped with the switch. Prepare them by yourself.


Connection procedure

To connect a 10/100/1000Base-T port:

  1. Plug one end of an Ethernet twisted pair cable into the copper Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) to be connected on the switch.

  2. Plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 port of the peer device.
