2.3 Cabling


10/100/1000Base-T
All 10/100/1000Base-T ports come with auto-negotiation capability. They automatically support 1000Base-T, 100Base-TX
and 10Base-T networks. Users only need to plug a working network device into one of the 10/100/1000Base-T ports, and
then turn on the Industrial Managed Switch. The port will automatically run in 10Mbps, 20Mbps, 100Mbps or 200Mbps
and 1000Mbps or 2000Mbps after negotiating with the connected device.

100Base-FX / 1000Base-SX/LX
The Industrial Managed Switch has four SFP interfaces that support 100/1000Mbps dual speed mode (optional
multi-mode / single-mode 100Base-FX / 1000Base-SX/LX SFP module)

Cabling
Each 10/100/1000Base-T port uses an RJ45 socket -- similar to phone jacks -- for connection of unshielded twisted-pair
cable (UTP). The IEEE 802.3 / 802.3u 802.3ab Fast / Gigabit Ethernet standard requires Category 5 UTP for 100Mbps
100Base-TX. 10Base-T networks can use Cat.3, 4, 5 or 1000Base-T use 5/5e/6 UTP (see table below). Maximum distance
is 100 meters (328 feet). The 100Base-FX / 1000Base-SX/LX SFP slot uses an LC connector with optional SFP module.
Please see table below and know more about the cable specifications.
Port Type
10Base-T Cat 3, 4, 5, 2-pair
100Base-TX Cat.5 UTP, 2-pair
1000Base-T Cat.5/5e/6 UTP, 2-pair
100Base-FX
50 / 125µm or 62.5 / 125µm multi-mode 9 / 125µm single-mode
1000Base-SX/LX 50 / 125µm or 62.5 / 125µm multi-mode 9 / 125µm single-mode
Any Ethernet devices like hubs and PCs can connect to the Industrial Managed Switch by using straight-through wires.
The two 10/100/1000Mbps ports are auto-MDI/MDI-X and can be used on straight-through or crossover cable.
