24-port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView RJ-45 Ports The Switch is equipped with twenty-four auto-sensing RJ-45 ports. These RJ-45 ports support network speeds of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half and full-duplex modes. Auto-sensing technology enables each port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10Mbps or 100Mbps), and adjust its speed and duplex accordingly. To connect a device to a port, you will need to use a network cable. You will need to use Category 5 (or better) cable. For more information on twisted-pair cabling, refer to the Twisted-Pair Cabling section. The Gigabit Expansion Ports The Switch is equipped with one miniGBIC port and two Gigabit Ethernet ports that provide for the installation of one expansion module. These ports provide links to high-speed network segments or individual workstations at speeds of up to 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). To establish a Gigabit Ethernet connection, you will need to install an MGBT1, MGBSX2, or MGBLH1 Gigabit expansion module and use Category 5e cabling or fiber optic cabling. for more information on fiber optic cabling, refer to the Fiber Optic Cabling section. The Console Port The Switch is equipped with a serial port labeled CONSOLE (located on the front of the switch) that allows you to connect to a computer's serial port (for configuration purposes) using the provided serial cable. You can use HyperTerminal to manage the Switch using the console port. With this and many other Linksys products, your networking options are limitless.

24-port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView
RJ-45 Ports
The Switch is equipped with twenty-four auto-sensing RJ-45 ports. These RJ-45 ports support network speeds of
either 10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half and full-duplex modes. Auto-sensing technology enables
each port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10Mbps or 100Mbps), and adjust its
speed and duplex accordingly.
To connect a device to a port, you will need to use a network cable. You will need to use Category 5 (or better)
cable. For more information on twisted-pair cabling, refer to the Twisted-Pair Cabling section.
The Gigabit Expansion Ports
The Switch is equipped with one miniGBIC port and two Gigabit Ethernet ports that provide for the installation of
one expansion module. These ports provide links to high-speed network segments or individual workstations at
speeds of up to 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet).
To establish a Gigabit Ethernet connection, you will need to install an MGBT1, MGBSX2, or MGBLH1 Gigabit
expansion module and use Category 5e cabling or fiber optic cabling. for more information on fiber optic cabling,
refer to the Fiber Optic Cabling section.
The Console Port
The Switch is equipped with a serial port labeled CONSOLE (located on the front of the switch) that allows you to
connect to a computer’s serial port (for configuration purposes) using the provided serial cable. You can use
HyperTerminal to manage the Switch using the console port.
