Ethernet Cabling
To ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network, make sure that the current cables are
suitable for 100BASE‐TX or 1000BASE‐T operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation
of your network:
◆
Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cable with RJ‐45 connectors;
Category 5 or Category 5e with maximum length of 100 meters is recommend 100BASE‐TX, and Category
5e or 6 with maximum length of 100 meters is recommend for 1000BASE‐T.
◆
Protection from radio frequency interference emissions.
◆
Electrical surge suppression.
◆
Separation of electrical wires and data based network wiring.
◆
Safe connections with no damaged cables, connectors or shields.
◆
◆
WARNING: SFPs and mini‐GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam coming
from the transmit port.
