    Chapter 4: Making Network Connections Connecting Network Devices The ES4524M-PoE units are designed to interconnect multiple segments (or collision domains). It can be connected to network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to hubs, switches or routers. It may also be connected to devices using optional SFP transceivers.
  • Page 38: Connecting To Pcs, Servers, Hubs And Switches

    Making Network Connections See Appendix B: for further information on cabling. Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This will damage the switch. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform to FCC standards. Connecting to PCs, Servers, Hubs and Switches Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable segment to the device’s RJ-45 connector.
  • Page 39: Fiber Optic Sfp Devices

    Fiber Optic SFP Devices Attach one end of a patch cable to an available port on the switch, and the other end to the patch panel. If not already in place, attach one end of a cable segment to the back of the patch panel where the punch-down block is located, and the other end to a modular wall outlet.

    Making Network Connections Caution: This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a transmit port when it is powered on.
  • Page 41: Connectivity Rules

    Connectivity Rules Connectivity Rules When adding hubs (repeaters) to your network, please follow the connectivity rules listed in the manuals for these products. However, note that because switches break up the path for connected devices into separate collision domains, you should not include the switch or connected cabling in your calculations for cascade length involving other devices.
