Stratix 8000 and 8300 Ethernet Managed Switches
Connect to 10/100 Copper Ports
1. Insert a straight-through, twisted four-pair, Category 5e or better cable with an RJ45 connector into the port.
2. Insert the other cable end into an RJ45 connector on the other device.
Connect to PoE Expansion Module Ports
Two expansion modules provide PoE capability:
• The 1783-MX04E PoE expansion module provides four PoE ports. You can configure as many as four ports in any combination of PoE and
PoE+.
• The 1783-MX04T04E PoE expansion module provides four PoE ports and four non-PoE ports. You can configure as many as four ports in
any combination of PoE and PoE+.
The PoE expansion modules each require a separate power supply. For power supply requirements based on your application, refer to
page 13.
1. Insert a straight-through, twisted four-pair, Category 5e or better cable with an RJ45 connector into the port.
2. Insert the other cable end into an RJ45 connector on the other PoE powered device.
Connect to Dual-purpose Uplink Ports
The switches have two dual-purpose uplink ports. Each dual-purpose uplink port has a 10/100/1000 RJ45 connector for a copper interface and a
slot for an SFP module. Only one port of the dual-purpose port can be active at a time. If an SFP module port is connected, the SFP module port has
priority.
1. Insert a straight-through, twisted four-pair, Category 5e or better cable with an RJ45 connector into the port.
2. Insert the other cable end into an RJ45 connector on the other device.
