Connecting Network Devices

The TigerStack 1000 units are designed to interconnect multiple segments

(or collision domains). It can be connected to network cards in PCs and

servers, as well as to hubs, switches or routers. It may also be connected to

devices using optional SFP or Xenpak transceivers.

Twisted-Pair Devices

Each device requires an unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with RJ-45

connectors at both ends. Use Category 5, 5e or 6 cable for 1000BASE-T

connections, Category 5 or better for 100BASE-TX connections, and

Category 3 or better for 10BASE-T connections.

Cabling Guidelines

The RJ-45 ports on the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout

configuration, so you can use standard straight-through twisted-pair cables

to connect to any other network device (PCs, servers, switches, routers, or

hubs).

See Appendix B “Cables” for further information on cabling.

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.
