1000BASE-T Twisted-Pair Connections

A 1000BASE-T connection requires a shielded or unshielded

twisted-pair (STP or UTP) cable with RJ-45 connectors at both

ends. For all connections, Category 5 or 5e (recommended) cable

is required with all four wire pairs connected. You should also test

the cable installation for IEEE 802.3ab compliance. See

“1000BASE-T Cable Requirements” on page B-4.

Cabling Guidelines

The RJ-45 port on the SMC6900GT module supports 1000, 100, and

10 Mbps Ethernet operation, with auto-negotiation of speed,

duplex mode, and flow control. Because 1000BASE-T ports

support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use

straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or

servers, or to other switches or hubs.

Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an

RJ-45 port. This will damage the switch. Use only

twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform to

FCC standards.

Connecting to PCs, Servers, Hubs and Switches

1. Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable segment to the device’s

RJ-45 connector.
