System Connection

1.1.2 Connecting the RJ-45 Port
Use shielded or unshielded twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Use cables of
Category 3, 4, and 5 to connect the 10Mbps Ethernet, and use cables of Category 5 to connect the
100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports. Connect one end of a cable to the network card or the RJ-45 port of
another switch/HUB, and the other end to the RJ-45 port of the switch. When you plug the RJ-45
connector, you should hear a "click", which means that the connector is plugged tightly.
Warning
Caution
1.1.3 Connecting Optical Fibers
Connect the optical module on the switch by using an optical fiber whose connector matches that of the
optical module. When you are doing this, connect the RX end of one party to the TX end of the other
party to ensure correct Rx/Tx channel connection.
Warning
Please ensure that the ventilation holes and fans on both sides and at the
back of the chassis are not blocked.
Do not insert a phone connector into the RJ-45 port, as this may damage
the switch.
Ensure that each twisted pair cable does not exceed 100 m in length.
Do not stare into the 1000BASE-SX/LX ports as invisible laser radiation
from them may hurt your eyes.
