Required Tools and Equipment
Obtain these necessary tools and equipment:
• Ratcheting torque screwdriver that exerts up to 1.69 N
•
m (15 in
•
lbs) of
pressure
• #6 ring terminal lug for 5.3 mm
(10 AWG) wire, such as Thomas & Bett
part number 10RC6 or equivalent
• Crimping tool, such as Thomas & Bett part number WT2000,
ERG-2001, or equivalent
• 5.3 mm
2
(10 AWG) copper ground wire, such as Belden part number 9912
or equivalent
• Wire-stripping tool
• For panel-mounting without a DIN rail, M5 or #10-24 or #10-32 bolts or
screws with 1.27 cm (0.5 in.) O.D. flat washers
For simplified cabling, the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover
(auto-MDIX) feature is enabled by default on the switch. With auto-MDIX
enabled, the switch detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet
connections and configures the interfaces accordingly. Therefore, you can use
either a crossover or a straight-through cable for connections to a switch 10/100
or 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, regardless of the type of device on the other end
of the connection.
For maximum noise immunity, shielded cables must be used on the uplink ports
(Gi1/1 and Gi1/2) on these switches:
• 1783-BMS06TGL
• 1783-BMS06TGA
• 1783-BMS10CGA
• 1783-BMS10CGL
• 1783-BMS10CGN
• 1783-BMS10CGP
• 1783-BMS20CGL
• 1783-BMS20CGN
• 1783-BMS20CGP
• 1783-BMS20CGPK
At the end of its life, this equipment should be collected separately from any
unsorted municipal waste.
