Station Connection
Connect each station to the switch by twisted-pair cable. Plug one
RJ-45 connector into a RJ-45 port of the switch, and plug the other
RJ-45 connector into the station’s network adapter. Power on the
switch and then system is ready.
For cable selection, refer to the following table.
Switches Connection
In making a switch interconnection, you could use any port to
connect another switch with straight or crossover cable. As all the
ports support auto MDI / MDI-X function, using a straight cable to
make a switch-to-switch connection is allowed.
For cable selection, refer to the following table：
Network Speed Cable Type Max. Length
10Mbps Cat. 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP 100 meters
100Mbps Cat. 5 UTP/STP 100 meters

Rack-Mount Installation (Rack-mount kit is optional for 13-inch

The switch may standalone, or may be mounted in a standard

installation when you have a number of related network devices.
The switch is supplied with two optional rack mounting brackets and
screws. These are used for rack mounting the unit.
