Always make sure that the cables between the
switches and attached devices (for example,
switch, hub, or workstation) are less than 100
meters (328 feet). You should use the following
cables:
•
1000BASE-TX: 4-pair UTP/STP Cat. 5e Cable
•
10/100BASE-TX: 4-pair UTP/STP Cat. 5 Cable
Connecting the Fiber Port
The SFP socket supports optical fiber communications that can support a
100Mbps and 1000Mbps SFP Transceiver with Digital Diagnostic Monitor
(DDM) to achieve fiber signal quality control. The SFP ports support
100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-SX/LX standard mini GBIC SFP transceivers.
Connect the fiber port on the ES8509-XT to another fiber Ethernet device, by
following the figure below. A wrong connection will cause the fiber port to
not work properly. LED activity is discussed in Connecting the Ethernet Port.
