Installation

Planning the Installation

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when planning the installation of

your switch.

❑ The end-nodes connected to the twisted pair ports can operate at

either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps and half- or full-duplex mode. Refer to

“Port Speed” and “Duplex Mode” on page 5 for additional information.

❑ An end-node connected to a port on the switch can be a network

adapter card, repeater, router, hub, or another switch.

❑ A twisted pair port using Auto-negotiation features auto MDI/MDI-X.

It configures itself automatically as MDI or MDI-X when connected to

an end-node. Consequently, you can use either a straight-through or

crossover twisted pair cable when connecting any network device to a

port. If Auto-negotiation is disabled and a port’s speed and duplex

mode are set manually, the port defaults to MDI-X. Refer to “Auto

MDI/MDI-X” on page 6 for additional information.

❑ Refer to Table 3 for the cabling specifications for the twisted pair

ports.
