Attach the Alarm Relay
Connector to the Switch
To attach the alarm relay connector to the front panel of the switch, follow
these steps.
1. Insert the alarm relay connector into the receptacle on the switch front
panel.
2. Use a ratcheting torque flathead screwdriver to tighten the captive
screws on the sides of the alarm relay connector.
Connect to 10/100 and
10/100/1000 Ports
The switch 10/100/1000 ports automatically configure themselves to operate
at the speed of attached devices. If the attached ports do not support
autonegotiation, you can explicitly set the speed and duplex parameters.
Connecting devices that do not autonegotiate or that have their speed and
duplex parameters that are manually set can reduce performance or result in no
linkage.
The Auto-MDIX feature is enabled by default. Unless this feature is disabled,
you can use either straight-through or crossover cables to connect to other
devices on the network.
To maximize performance, choose one of these methods for configuring the
Ethernet ports:
• Let the ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex
• Set the port speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the
connection
