Installation
AC Power
ENHGS-224's power supply automatically adjusts to line power in the range
100-264V/ 50-60Hz.
Cable Selection
ENHGS-224 can use the following types of cabling:
•
10BASE-T: Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP/STP
•
100BASE-TX: Category 5 UTP/STP
•
1000BASE-T: Category 5 UTP/STP
Category 5 or enhanced cable is preferred to use with this product in structured
wiring environments. This will ensure correct operation of all ports at 10Mbps,
100Mbps or 1000Mbps.
Station Connection
Connect each station to ENHGS-224 by a category 5 twisted-pair cable (straight or
cross-over cable). Plug one RJ-45 connector into a front-panel port of ENHGS-224,
and plug the other RJ-45 connector into the station's network adapter.
Switch Connection
In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to connect another switch
with straight or crossover cable. As all the ports support auto MDI / MDI-X function,
using a straight cable to make a switch-to-switch connection is allowed.
For cable selection, refer to the following table:
