Connecting Devices to the Switch The following procedure describes how to connect devices to the switch's RJ-45 ports. When attaching devices to an FS726 or an FS750, the switch's support for Auto Uplink technology allows you to attach devices using either straight-through or crossover cables (for more information about Auto Link' technology, refer to "Auto Uplink " on page 12). 7. Connect each device to an RJ-45 network port on the switch's front panel (see Figure 4-2). Use Category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector to make these connections.
