Connecting The Des-1008D/ Dss-8; Des-1008D/ Dss-8; Hub To Des-1008D/ Dss-8; Des-1008D/ Dss-8+ To Other Devices - D-Link DES-1008D Manual

DES-1008D/ DSS-8+

CONNECTING THE
Computer to DES-1008D/ DSS-8+
A computer can be connected to the DES-1008D/ DSS-8+ via a
two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover
cable. A computer equipped with a RJ-45 10/100Mbps port can be
connected to any of the eight DES-1008D/ DSS-8+ ports.
The LED indicators for the computer connection depend on the
capability of the computer's Ethernet card. If the LED indicators are
not lit after making a proper connection, check the computer's
Ethernet card, the cable, or the DES-1008D/ DSS-8+'s conditions
and connections.

Hub to DES-1008D/ DSS-8+

A hub (10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX) can be connected to the DES-
1008D/ DSS-8+ via a two-pair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP
Straight-Through or Crossover cable. For 100Mbps operation a
Category 5 cable must be used. The connection is accomplished
from any port of the hub to any port of the DES-1008D/ DSS-8+.

DES-1008D/ DSS-8+ to other devices

The DES-1008D/ DSS-8+ can be connected to another switch or
other devices (routers, bridges, etc.) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5
UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A Category 5
cable must be used for 100Mbps operation. The connection can be
accomplished from any (MDI-X) port on the DES-1008D/ DSS-8+ to
any of the 10Mbps or 100Mbps (MDI-X) ports on another switch or
other devices.
