GS752TP, GS728TP, and GS728TPP Gigabit Smart Switch Step 4: Connect Devices to the Switch The following procedure describes how to connect computers to the switch's RJ-45 ports. The switch contains Auto Uplink technology, which allows the attaching of devices using either straight-through or crossover cables. Figure 11. Connecting devices to the switch Connect each computer to an RJ-45 network port on the switch front panel (Figure 11). Use a Category 5 (Cat 5) Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector to make these connections. Note: Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and the attached device to 100 meters (328 feet). Step 5: Install an SFP Transceiver Module The following procedure describes how to install an optional SFP transceiver module into one of the SFP ports of the switch. Note: Contact your NETGEAR sales office to buy these modules. If you do not want to install an SFP module, skip this procedure. 24

Step 4: Connect Devices to the Switch
The following procedure describes how to connect computers to the switch’s RJ-45 ports.
The switch contains Auto Uplink technology, which allows the attaching of devices using
either straight-through or crossover cables.
Figure 11. Connecting devices to the switch
Connect each computer to an RJ-45 network port on the switch front panel (
Figure
11
). Use a
Category 5 (Cat 5) Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45 connector
to make these connections.
Note:
Ethernet specifications limit the cable length between the switch and
the attached device to 100 meters (328 feet).
Step 5: Install an SFP Transceiver Module
The following procedure describes how to install an optional SFP transceiver module into one
of the SFP ports of the switch.
Note:
Contact your NETGEAR sales office to buy these modules. If you do
not want to install an SFP module, skip this procedure.
