They areconnected to the network through category-5 or above twisted pairs that are equipped with RJ-45connectors.To connect a 10/100/1000Base-T port:1. Plug one end of an Ethernet twisted pair cable into the copper Ethernet port (RJ-45 port) to beconnected on the switch.2. Plug the other end of the cable into the RJ-45 port of the peer device.NOTE:No Ethernet twisted pair cables are shipped with the switch. Prepare them yourself.
