DGS-1008G to End Node
End nodes include PCs outfitted with a 10, 100, or 1000Mbps RJ-45 Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) and most routers. An end node can
be connected to the Switch via a twisted-pair Category 3, 4, 5, or 5e UTP/STP cable. The end node can be connected to any of the ports of the
Switch.
The Link/Act LEDs for each UTP port light green when the link is valid. The LED over the port label indicates a port speed of either 10/100Mbps or
1000Mbps. A blinking LED on the bottom indicates packet activity on that port.
Hub/Switch to DGS-1008G
These connections can be accomplished in a number of ways using a standard Ethernet cable.
• A 10BASE-T hub or switch can be connected to the Switch via a twisted-pair Category 3, 4, 5, or 5e UTP/STP cable.
• A 100BASE-T hub or switch can be connected to the Switch via a twisted -pair Category 5 UTP/STP cable.
• A 1000BASE-T switch can be connected to the Switch via a twisted -pair Category 5/5e or better UTP/STP cable.
Connecting To Network Backbone or Server
Any of the eight Gigabit Ethernet ports are ideal for uplinking to a network backbone or network server.
