Connect Devices to the Switch
Before connecting the switch, be sure you review "Applications" for information
about determining the appropriate configuration for your networking needs.
To connect the switch:
1. Connect the devices to the 10/100 Mbps ports on the switch, using
Category 5 UTP cable and an RJ-45 plug.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between your PC or
server and the switch to 328 feet (100 meters) in length.
2. Set the Normal/Uplink push button.
3. Set the FDX/AUTO toggle switches on the rear panel for the selected
duplex mode (the default setting is AUTO).
4. Connect one end of the DC power adapter cable to the power outlet on
the rear panel of the switch and the other end of the power adapter
cable to the wall outlet.
Refer to the following illustration when connecting the Model FS308 switch.
