CONNECTING THE SWITCH PC to DSS-5+ A computer can be connected to the DSS-5+ via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A computer equipped with a RJ-45 10/100Mbps port can be connected to any of the five DSS-5+ ports. The LED indicators for the PC connection depend on the capability of the computer's Ethernet card. If the LED indicators are not lit after making a proper connection, check the computer's Ethernet card, the cable, and the DSS-5+'s conditions and connections. Hub to DSS-5+ A hub (10 or 100BASE-TX) can be connected to the DSS-5+ via a twopair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. For 100Mbps operation a Category 5 cable must be used. The connection is accomplished from any port of the hub to any port of the DSS-5+. DSS-5+ to other devices The DSS-5+ can be connected to another switch or other devices (routers, bridges, etc.) via a two-pair Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP Straight-Through or Crossover cable. A Category 5 cable must be used for 100Mbps operation. The connection can be accomplished from any (MDI-X) port on the DSS-5+ to any of the 10Mbps or 100Mbps (MDI-X) ports on another switch or other devices. 9
