When you connect devices to the switch ports, refer to the
Smartports role assignments that you recorded in Step 10.

Ethernet connections

• Use either straight-through or crossover Category 5 cables
with RJ-45 connectors to connect from the switch Ethernet
ports to other devices.
• By default, the PoE ports automatically provide up to
15.4 W power when IEEE 802.3af-compliant-powered
devices are connected.
• By default, autonegotiation and auto-MDIX are enabled on
the 10/100BASE-T and 10/100/1000BASE-T ports; the
ports automatically provide the appropriate Ethernet
connection.
Uplink port connections
• Use the 10/100/1000BASE-T port or add a Cisco fiber-optic
SFP module to the SFP module port for a Gigabit uplink
connection to another switch. Use Category 5 cables with
RJ-45 connectors to connect to a 10/100/1000BASE-T port.
Use LC fiber connectors to connect to a fiber-optic SFP
module.
