Connecting Ethernet Ports
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port of the ES8510
and the other end to the attached networking device. The Ethernet ports
support 10/100Mbps half/full-duplex. All ports auto-detect the signal from
connected devices to negotiate the link speed and duplex mode. Auto MDI/
MDIX allows users to connect another switch, hub, or workstation without
changing straight through or crossover cable.
Link/Act LED are lit to indicate traffic and link status. See the LED subsection
for more information.
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).
