CONNECTING THE DES-1008D
Computer to DES-1008D
A computer can be connected to the DES-1008D via a two-pair
Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A
computer equipped with a RJ-45 10/100Mbps port can be
connected to any of the eight DES-1008D ports.
The LED indicators for the computer connection depend on the
capability of the computer’s Ethernet card. If the LED indicators are
not lit after making a proper connection, check the computer’s
Ethernet card, the cable, or the DES-1008D’s conditions and
connections.
Hub to DES-1008D
A hub (10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX) can be connected to the DES-
1008D via a two-pair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through
or Crossover cable. For 100Mbps operation a Category 5 cable
must be used. The connection is accomplished from any port of
the hub to any port of the DES-1008D.
DES-1008D to other devices
The DES-1008D can be connected to another switch or other
devices (routers, bridges, etc.) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5
UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A Category 5
cable must be used for 100Mbps operation. The connection can be
accomplished from any (MDI-X) port on the DES-1008D to any of
the 10Mbps or 100Mbps (MDI-X) ports on another switch or other
devices.
