Figure 3. End node, Hub or Switch connection
Notice:
Cable distance for Switch
The cable distance between Ethernet Switch and hub/PC should not exceed 100 meter for UTP/STP
cable.
Make sure the wiring is correct
It can be used Category 3/4/5 cable in 10 Mbps operation. To reliably operate your network at
100Mbps and 1000Mbps, you must use an Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) Category 5 cable, or
better Data Grade cabling. While a Category 3 or 4 cable may initially seem to work, it will soon
cause data loss.
3.3 Connecting to Network Backbone or Server
Connect to the Gigabit Ethernet ports with Category 5 copper cable for uplinking to a network backbone
or network server. These ports operate at 1000Mbps in full-duplex mode. A valid connection is indicated
when the Link LED is light.
