A-2

Switch Specifications

Safety

Complies with:

■ EN60950-1 / IEC 60950-1

■ CSA 22.2 No. 60950-1

■ UL 60950-1

Connectors

■ The 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 twisted-pair ports are compatible with the

following standards:

• IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T

• IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX

• IEEE 802.3 10Base-T

Note Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for LAN

communications. HP ProCurve recommends that you work with a qualified

LAN cable installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.

Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements. The Category 5 networking

cables that work for 100Base-TX connections should also work for

1000Base-T, as long as all four-pairs are connected. But, for the most robust

connections, you should use cabling that complies with the Category 5e

specifications, as described in Addendum 5 to the TIA-568-A standard (ANSI/

TIA/EIA-568-A-5).

Because of the increased speed provided by 1000Base-T (Gigabit-T), network

cable quality is more important than for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.

Cabling plants being used to carry 1000Base-T networking must comply with

Twisted-pair copper 10 Mbps Operation Category 3, 4 or 5, 100-ohm unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or

shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable, complying with IEEE 802.3

10Base-T specifications.

100 Mbps Operation Category 5, 100-ohm UTP or STP cable, complying with IEEE

802.3u 100Base-TX specifications.

1000 Mbps Operation Category 5, 100-ohm 4-pair UTP or STP cable, complying with

IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T specifications—Category 5e or better

is recommended. See note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements

below.
