The switch contains Auto Uplink technology, which allows the attaching of devices using
either straight-through or crossover cables.
Figure 5. Connecting devices to the switch
Connect each computer to an RJ-45 network port on the switch front panel. Use a Category 5
(Cat 5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector to make
these connections.
Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and
the attached device to 100 meters (328 feet).
To connect devices to the switch:

1. Connect a Cat 5 cable to the device.
2. Connect the other end of the Cat 5 cable from the device into an RJ-45 network port located
on the switch front panel.
