Step 6: Connect devices to the switch

This switch is designed for indoor use only. If you want to connect to a device located
outdoors, the outdoor device must be properly grounded and surge protected, and
you must install an Ethernet surge protector inline between the switch and the outdoor
device. Failure to do so can damage the switch.
WARNING: Before connecting this switch to outdoor cables or devices, see
https://kb.netgear.com/000057103 for safety and warranty information.
The following procedure describes how to connect devices to the switch's RJ-45 ports.
The switch supports Auto Uplink technology, which allows you to attach devices using
either straight-through or crossover cables. Use a Category 5e (Cat 5e) or Cat 6 cable
that is terminated with an RJ-45 connector.
To connect devices to the switch's RJ-45 ports:
1. Connect a non-PoE device to an RJ-45 network port on the switch.
