2.3 Cabling
10/100/1000BASE-T
All 10/100/1000BASE-T ports come with auto-negotiation capability. They automatically support 1000BASE-T,
100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T networks. Users only need to plug a working network device into one of the
10/100/1000BASE-T ports, and then turn on the Industrial Managed Switch. The port will automatically run in 10Mbps,
20Mbps, 100Mbps or 200Mbps and 1000Mbps or 2000Mbps after negotiating with the connected device.
100BASE-FX/1000BASE-SX/LX
The Industrial Managed Switch has four SFP interfaces that support 100/1000Mbps dual speed mode (optional
multi-mode/single-mode 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP module)
Cabling
Each 10/100/1000BASE-T port uses an RJ45 socket -- similar to phone jacks -- for connection of unshielded twisted-pair
cable (UTP). The IEEE 802.3/802.3u 802.3ab Fast/Gigabit Ethernet standard requires Category 5 UTP for 100Mbps
100BASE-TX. 10BASE-T networks can use Cat.3, 4, 5 or 1000BASE-T use 5/5e/6 UTP (see table below). Maximum
distance is 100 meters (328 feet). The 100BASE-FX/1000BASE-SX/LX SFP slot uses an LC connector with optional SFP
module. Please see table below and know more about the cable specifications.
100BASE-FX
50/125µm or 62.5/125µm multi-mode 9/125µm single-mode
(multi/single mode)
50/125µm or 62.5/125µm multi-mode 9/125µm single-mode
Any Ethernet devices like hubs and PCs can connect to the Industrial Managed Switch by using straight-through wires.
The two 10/100/1000Mbps ports are auto-MDI/MDI-X and can be used on straight-through or crossover cable.
