Frequently Asked Questions
What type of cabling do I need for Gigabit speed?
Ensure that Category 5E (CAT 5E) cabling is used when connecting devices at 1000-Mbps Gigabit Ethernet speed.
How can I connect to a device located more than 100 meters away?
Use the SFP port on the 24-port switch; however, note that this action disables the RJ-45 connector of port 24.
What does it mean if my Link/Activity LED is blinking green or amber?
A blinking green/amber light indicates that a link has been established and data is actively being transmitted or received on that port.
What must I avoid when connecting multiple switches together?
Do not connect two switches using more than one cable, as this practice can create a loop and cause collisions.
