Chapter 3 Installing the Switch
Connecting to 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports
To connect the switch to 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 1000BASE-T devices,
follow these steps:
Step 1 When connecting to servers, workstations, and routers, insert a twisted-pair
straight-through cable in a front-panel RJ-45 connector, as shown in Figure 3-15.
When connecting to switches or repeaters, insert a twisted-pair crossover cable.
(See the Appendix A, “Specifications,” for cable-pinout descriptions.)
Note When connecting to 1000BASE-T devices, be sure to use a four twisted-pair,
Category 5 cable.
