Connecting Network Cables

The Switch supports 24 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet PoE
enabled ports and 2 1000BASE-T/mini-GBIC combo ports.
These 24 PoE ports will be automatically activated when a
compatible terminal is identified. The Switch will supply power
through the PoE port to the connected PD.
For Legacy devices that are not yet compatible, the PoE port will
not offer the power to these devices. This feature allows users to
freely and safely mix legacy and Power over Ethernet compatible
devices on their network.
The Switch supports 10Mbps Ethernet or 100Mbps Fast Ethernet
and it runs both in half- and full- duplex mode using two pairs of
Category 5 cables.
The Switch also supports 2 1000BASE-T/mini-GBIC combo
Gigabit Ethernet ports. When using the RJ-45 ports, it runs in Auto-
negotiation mode with 10/100Mbps that runs in both half- and
full-duplex mode and 1000Mbps that runs in full-duplex mode
using four pair Category 5. When using the mini-GBIC ports, it
runs in optional 1000BASE-SX/LX fiber connectivity with mini-
GBIC transceiver module. The Combo Gigabit Ethernet port will
run only one of the mini-GBIC ports or RJ-45 ports The mini-GBIC
port priority is higher than the RJ-45 port, therefore if both the
mini-GBIC port and RJ-45 port are connected, then only the mini-
GBIC will activate.
