2-4 Installation

v1.0, October 2008

Step 4: Connecting Devices to the Switch

The following procedure describes how to connect PCs to the switch’s RJ-45 ports. The

NETGEAR Smart Switch contains Auto Uplink™ technology, which allows you to attach devices

using either straight-through or crossover cables.

Connect each PC to an RJ-45 network port on the Switch front panel (Figure 2-2). Use Category 5

(Cat5) Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector for these

connections.

Step 5: Installing an SFP GBIC Module

The following procedure describes how to install an SFP Gigabit Ethernet module in the switch’s

Gigabit module bay. Standard SFP GBIC modules are sold separately from the Smart Switch. If

you do not plan to install an SFP GBIC module at this time, skip this procedure.

Figure 2-2

Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached

device to 100 m (328 ft.).
