223. Connection3.1. Connection Using a Twisted Pair Port Connection CableUse a CAT5E or higher twisted pair cable with 8P8C RJ45 modular plug. Network ConfigurationFig. 3-1 Example of ConnectionThe length of the cable connecting this Switching Hub and a device must be100 m or shorter. When a terminal or a LAN device with auto negotiationfunction is connected to this Switching Hub, the port is automaticallyconfigured at the highest performance mode. When a terminal or a LANdevice without auto negotiation function is connected to this Switching Hub,this Switching Hub automatically determines and sets the communicationspeed; however, the full-duplex/half-duplex configuration is set athalf-duplex because the full-duplex/half-duplex capability cannot bedetermined. When connecting a terminal or a LAN device without autonegotiation function, a fixed-mode port configuration needs to be set.Note: If a fixed-ode port configuration is set, Auto-MDI/MDI-X functiondoes not work. Therefore, use a cross cable to connect them.100 mor shorter100 mor shorter100 m or shorter
