Standalone Configuration

Figure 3 shows the switch connected to end stations and a server. The basic
physical connection for this configuration requires connecting one of the switch's
ports to the adapter card of an end station.

Cascade Configuration

Cascading means that two switches can be connected together using any of the
switch ports provided you maintain the same medium type. Two switches can be
cascaded to support multiple network port connections. Cable length to the nodes
must follow the 100Base-TX cabling specifications.
To cascade installed switches, do the following:
When cascading switches, you must use the same medium type from port to
port.
1.
If you intend to use Port 16/24, set the MDI/MDI-X push button to the
MDI position (in).
2. Use a straight-through UTP RJ45 cable to connect the first switch to the
second switch. See Figure 4.
