Installing the Switch
Sample Network Topologies
Because the switches have the Auto-MDIX feature, the connections between
the switches and end nodes or servers can be through category 5 straight-
through or crossover twisted-pair cable. Category 3 or 4 cable can also be used
if the connection is 10 Mbps only.
The V1410-24-2G Switch and the E2510-24G Switch are connected through a
1000Base-T Category 5e twisted-pair cable uplink. All the devices on this
network segment can access other network resources that are connected
elsewhere on the network.
