Ethernet Ports

The Model SW502 switch is equipped with one 10 Mbps port and one 10/100 Mbps port for end-node
or daisy-chain connections. The 10 Mbps port supports three communication media, BNC, AUI, and
UTP.
On the Model SW507 switch, six 10 Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet ports and one 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 ports
can be used for either end-node or daisy-chain connection.

RJ-45 Ports, Normal/Uplink Push Button and 100M-Port 2/Port 7 LED

The network access speed for the 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 port on both systems is automatically sensed
and displayed on the front panel by the 100M-port 7 LED. A server or workstation can be connected
to any of the station ports, but only one Fast Ethernet port is provided on the front panel. The 100M
port is Port 2 on the Model SW502 switch and Port 7 on the Model SW507 switch. By connecting
this Fast Ethernet port to a Fast Ethernet switch or hub, you can create a Fast Ethernet backbone of
fast servers.
The 10/100 Mbps port and the 10 Mbps port on the Model SW502 switch are equipped with a
Normal/Uplink push button (Figure 2-3) to configure the port for direct server connection or for
connecting with a switch or hub to form an Ethernet backbone. The push button must be set in the
