Figure 4-2 Connecting Devices to the Switch
Connect each device to an RJ-45 network port on the switch’s front panel (see Figure 4-2) using a
Category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors.
Step 5: Installing a SFP GBIC Module
The following procedure describes how to install an optional SFP GBIC module into one of the
SFP GBIC module bays of the switch.
To install a SFP GBIC module, insert the SFP module into the SFP GBIC module bay. Press firmly
on the flange of the module to seat it securely into the connector.
You can install up to three additional Gigabit Ethernet modules using this procedure.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached
device to 100 m (328 ft.).
Note: Contact your NETGEAR sales office to buy these modules. If you do not want to
install a SFP GBIC module, skip this procedure.
