operate your network at 100Mbps and 1000Mbps, you must use an
Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) Category 5 cable, or better Data Grade
cabling. While a Category 3 or 4 cable may initially seem to work,it
will soon cause data loss.
Connecting to Network Backbone or Server

fiber optic cable for uplinking to a network backbone or network server.
These ports operate at 1000Mbps in full-duplex mode. A valid
