Chapter - 2 4-Port Gigabit Switch Outlook

2.2 Switch / Hub Configuration

The GES-4000 can be used to establish a network in the same way
one would use a regular 10/100 Mbps switch or simple 10 BASE-T
hub on a network. Each port on the GES-4000 can operate at 100
or 1000 Mbps and auto negotiate full/half-duplex modes for a 100
Mbps connection. The GES-4000 can be easily be connected to an
existing GES-4000, 10/100 Mbps switch, 10/100 Mbps dual speed
hub for a switch-to-switch or hub connection by using an Ethernet
cable. Each port also has the ability to detect the difference between
a crossover cable and a regular straight cable. This eliminates the
need to for an separate uplink port on the GES-4000 or the connect-
ing switch or hub. View the figure below for a sample configuration.
(See Figure 2.2-1)
Note: When making connections from one GES-4000 to another GES-
4000, please connect any port of your GES-4000 with a Gigabit cable
to the Gigabit port of another GES-4000. Also note that the maximum
cable length is 100 meters for the 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-TX, and 10
BASE-T networks.
