a.The TIA 568 building wiring standard specifies 160/500 MHz*km MMF (Multimode Fiber).
b.The international ISO/IEC 11801 building wiring standard specifies 200/500 MHz*km MMF.
c.The ANSI Fibre Channel specification specifies 500/500 MHz*km 50 micron MMF and 500/500 MHz*km
fiber has been proposed for addition to ISO/IEC 11801.
NOTE: Cable installation and network configuration will affect overall transmission capability. The numbers pro­
vided above represent the accepted recommendations of the various standards. For network-specific recommen­
dations, consult your local HP reseller or system engineer.
Connecting to Other Switches, Routing Switches, and Ethernet Hubs
For connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100BaseTX or 1000BaseT switch, or another HP switch or routing switch,
a crossover cable is required (Figure 2.10 or Figure 2.10). If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it will require
a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.
