ThefixedRJ45frontpanelportsare10/100/1000Mbpsportsandhaveinternalcrossovers.
Whenconnectingaworkstationtotheseports,useastraight‐throughcable.When
connectingnetworkingdevicestotheseports,suchasabridge,repeater,orrouter,usea
crossovercable.

switch,refertoFigure 3‐15andproceedas
follows:
1. Ensurethatthedevicetobeconnectedattheotherendofthesegmentis
