1000BASE-T UTP Ports

The Model FS518T switch has two 1000BASE-T UTP ports.These ports can

operate at 1000 Mbps full-duplex mode or 100 Mbps full/half duplex mode,and

provide a standard UTP for Category 5 or Category 5e cable.Figure 2-3 shows a

vista RJ-45 connector.For further information about Category 5 cables and connec-

tors, refer to Appendix B,“Connector Pin Assignments,”and Appendix C,“Cabling

Guidelines.” The 1000BASE-T requires very careful cable installation.

Normal/Uplink Push Button

The Normal/Uplink push button on the front panel of the switch,as illustrated in

Figure 2-1,allows you to select uplink (MDI) or normal (MDI-X) wiring for port 16

on the Model FS518T switch.This port is configured for normal wiring to connect to

a PC when the push button is in the out position.When the push button is pressed in,

this port is configured for uplink wiring to connect to another switch or to a hub,

using a straight-through twisted pair cable.

Auto MDI/MDIX

The 1000BASE-T ports will automatically detect a crossover cable and correct for

cabling cross overs.
