Rj-45 Ports; Factory Defaults Button And Reset Button - NETGEAR ProSAFE FS526Tv2 Hardware Installation Manual

RJ-45 Ports

RJ-45 ports are autosensing and autonegotiating ports. When you insert a cable into an
RJ-45 port, the switch automatically ascertains the maximum speed (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps)
and duplex mode (half- or full-duplex) of the attached device. All ports support a twisted-pair
cable that is terminated with an 8-pin RJ-45 plug.
To simplify the procedure for attaching devices, all RJ-45 ports support Auto MDI/MIDX. This
technology enables you to attach devices to the RJ-45 ports with either straight-through or
crossover cables. When you insert a cable into the switch's RJ-45 port, the switch
automatically configures the RJ-45 port to enable communications with the attached device.
With Auto MDI/MIDX technology, you do not need to configure uplink connections, and you
do not need to think about whether to use crossover or straight-through cables when you
attach a device.

Factory Defaults Button and Reset Button

The switch has a Factory Defaults button to clear the configuration and return the switch to
the factory settings. Pressing the button for at least two seconds causes the switch to reboot
with factory settings. All custom settings are removed, including the password, VLAN
settings, and port configurations.
In addition, the switch has a Reset button. Pressing this button reboots the switch but does
not change its configuration.
