Step 7: Connecting Devices to the Switch

20. Connect each device to an RJ-45 network port on the switch's front panel (see Figure 4-9). Use Category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair
(UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector to make these connections.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached device to 100 m (328 ft).
