    Installing the Switch Mount the device in the rack, using rack-mounting screws (not provided). Figure 2-3. Installing the Switch in a Rack If installing a single switch only, turn to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order.
  • Page 27: Installing An Optional Sfp Transceiver Into The Switch

    Connecting to a Power Source are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one. Place each device squarely on top of the one below, in any order.

    Installing the Switch Figure 2-6. Power Receptacle Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin socket. Note: For International use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must use a line cord set that has been approved for the receptacle type in your country. Check the front-panel LEDs as the device is powered on to be sure the Power LED is lit.
  • Page 29: Chapter 3: Making Network Connections

    Chapter 3: Making Network Connections Connecting Network Devices This switch is designed to interconnect multiple segments (or collision domains). It can be connected to network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to hubs, switches or routers. It may also be connected to devices using optional SFP transceivers. Twisted-Pair Devices Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
  • Page 30: Network Wiring Connections

    Making Network Connections If the device is a PC card and the switch is in the wiring closet, attach the other end of the cable segment to a modular wall outlet that is connected to the wiring closet. (See “Wiring Closet Connections” on the next page.) Otherwise, attach the other end to an available port on the switch.
  • Page 31: Fiber Optic Sfp Devices

    Fiber Optic SFP Devices Fiber Optic SFP Devices An optional Gigabit SFP transceiver (1000BASE-SX, or 1000BASE-LX) can be used for a backbone connection between switches, or for connecting to a high-speed server. Each multimode fiber optic port requires 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic cabling with an LC connector at both ends.
  • Page 32: Connectivity Rules

    Making Network Connections Connectivity Rules When adding hubs (repeaters) to your network, please follow the connectivity rules listed in the manuals for these products. However, note that because switches break up the path for connected devices into separate collision domains, you should not include the switch or connected cabling in your calculations for cascade length involving other devices.
