Magnum 4K220 Switches Installation and User Guide
3.2
Connecting Ethernet Media
The Magnum 4K220 Switches are specifically designed to support twisted pair
Ethernet media. The media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE 802.3
and 802.3u standards are as follows:
IEEE Standard
Copper:
10BASE-T & 100BASE-TX twisted pair 100m (328 ft)
3.2.1
Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45,CAT3, CAT5, Unshielded or
Shielded)
The RJ-45 ports of the Magnum 4K-Series can be connected to the following
two media types: 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. CAT 5 cables should be used when
making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT
3 may be used. In either case, the maximum distance for unshielded twisted pair
cabling is 100 meters (328 ft).
Media
Twisted Pair (CAT 3, 4, 5)
Twisted Pair (CAT 5)
NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5 cables (which work for both 10
Mb and 100Mb) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in a
mixed-speed network, since dual-speed ports are auto-sensing for either 10
and 100Mb/s.
The following procedure describes how to connect a 10BASE-T or
100BASE-TX twisted pair segment to the RJ-45 port. The procedure is the same
for both unshielded and shielded twisted pair cables.
1.
Using standard twisted pair media, insert either end of the cable with an RJ-45
plug into the RJ-45 connector of the port. Note that, even though the connector
is shielded, either unshielded or shielded cables and wiring may be used.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding device
3.
Use the LINK LED to ensure proper connectivity by noting that the LED will be
illuminated when the unit is powered and proper connection is established.
