Port Connections
10BASE-T Switch Ports
Eight fixed ports each configured as MDIX provide
10Mbps bandwidth
to each attached end-station. Maximum segment length is 100m
(328ft) over grade 3, 4 or 5 twisted pair cable.
Internal Switch Ports
As well as switch ports located on the front panel of the Switch 1005,
internal backplane connections provide an additional four switch
ports. These ports are enabled and disabled through management or
using the set of links LK1 to LK5 located on the Switch 1005.
Three of these ports provide switched connections to the three
10Mbps repeater backplanes located in the MSH chassis, and therefore
to any modules connected to the same backplane.
The fourth internal switched port provides a connection to the Fast
Ethernet backplane
,
and therefore to any other Switch 1005
module
s
installed in the chassis.
Locating and setting links is described in
