Category 3 or 4 cable can also be used if the connection is 10 Mbps only. In all
cases, the device ports must be configured to auto negotiate the link charac-
teristics for this feature to work.
The switch, in turn, can be connected to a network backbone through fiber-
optic cabling connected to a Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH mini-GBIC installed in the
switch. Now, all the devices on these network segments can access other
network resources that are connected elsewhere on the network backbone.
