Switch. When connecting a workstation or a server running at 100Mbps, a standard 100BASE-TX adapter must be installed. When running at 10Mbps, ports 1 and 2 are functionally identical to the 10Mbps ports described below. 10Mbps Ports These ports require Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair or shielded twisted-pair (UTP/STP) cable. They can be used to connect to individual workstations, servers or other 10BASE-T devices. The attached station must be within 100 meters of the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch. When connecting a workstation or a server, a standard 10BASE-T adapter must be installed. Cable Types Under most conditions, the ports on the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch may use normal straight-through cables. Some circumstances, however, may require the use of crossover cables (i.e., cables in which the twisted-pair outputs have been crossed). See Appendix B for more information on crossover cable pinouts. The table below describes when to use which cable type. 16 Installation

Installation
Switch. When connecting a workstation or a server running at 100Mbps, a
standard 100BASE-TX adapter must be installed.
When running at 10Mbps,
ports 1 and 2 are functionally identical to the 10Mbps ports described below.
10Mbps Ports
These ports require Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair or shielded
twisted-pair (UTP/STP) cable. They can be used to connect to individual
workstations, servers or other 10BASE-T devices.
The attached station must
be within 100 meters of the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch.
When connecting a
workstation or a server, a standard 10BASE-T adapter must be installed.
Cable Types
Under most conditions, the ports on the 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch may use
normal straight-through cables.
Some circumstances, however, may require
the use of crossover cables (i.e., cables in which the twisted-pair outputs have
been crossed).
See Appendix B for more information on crossover cable
pinouts.
The table below describes when to use which cable type.
