Switch to Server
The Switch is ideal for connecting to a network backbone, server, or server farm. The RJ45 ports operate at speeds of
10/100 Mbps and 1/2.5/10 Gbps. The SFP+ ports operate at speeds of 1/10 Gbps.

Switch to End Node
An end node is a generic name for edge networking devices that will be connected to this switch. Typical examples of
end nodes are Personal Computers (PCs), Notebooks, Access Points, Print Servers, VoIP Phones and more. Each
end node should be fitted with an RJ45 networking port. Normally, end nodes will connect to this switch by using a
standard twisted-pair UTP/STP network cable. When a successful connection is established, the corresponding port
light will illuminate and blink to indicate that network activity is taking place on that port.
The diagram below displays a typical end node connected to the Switch.
