GS910/XST Series 10 Gigabit Ehternet Unmanaged Switch Installation and User's Guide
Cabling Twisted Pair Ports
Guidelines to
Connecting
Twisted Pair
Cables
After installing the GS910/XST series switch, connect twisted pair cables
or/and an SFP transceiver to the ports on the switch. To install an SFP
transceiver, see "Installing an SFP Transceiver" on page 43.
When connecting a twisted pair cable to a port, observe the following
guidelines:
An RJ-45 connector should fit snugly into the port on the switch.
The tab on the connector should lock the connector into place.
The ports on the switch are auto-MDI/MDI-X. You can use a
straight-through twisted pair cable to connect any type of network
device to a port on the switch.
The network should not contain data loops, which can adversely
affect network performance. A data loop exists when two or more
network devices can communicate with each other over more than
one data path.
