ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT 3 may be used. In either case, the maximum
distance for unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100 meters (328 ft). For fiber port 10BASE-
FL or 100BASE-FX multi-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns cabling can be used, whereas
for single-mode, 9/125 microns cabling should be used. Fiber cabling supports much longer
cable distance and higher bandwidths as compared to copper wiring.

NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5 cables (which work for both 10 Mbps
and 100Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in a
mixed-speed network, since ES42-series switch ports are auto-sensing for either
10 and 100Mbps. Note that the auto-cross function does not operate, if the port
is fixed or not supporting auto-negotiation.
