10BASE-T LAN Configuration
This section contains the procedures for connecting a UTP segment from the 10BASE-T network
or other devices to the CSX200. Ports 1 through 12 on the CSX200 have RJ45 connectors for UTP
connections.
Connecting UTP Cables to Ports 1 Through 12
Before connecting a segment to the CSX200, check each end of the segment to verify wire
crossover.
Connect a twisted pair segment to the CSX200 as follows:
1. Ensure that the device at the other end of the segment is connected to the segment and is
powered ON.
2. Refer to Figure 3-1. Connect the twisted pair segment to the CSX200 by inserting the RJ45
connector on the twisted pair segment into the desired RJ45 port (ports 1 through 12).

!
CAUTION
To establish a link, you must have an odd number of crossovers (preferably one)
between 10BASE-T devices of the same type (i.e., from repeater to repeater or
transceiver to transceiver).
