Ethernet Cabling
The Switch is managed through the use of a customer-supplied management
station connected to the Switch via its Ethernet port.
Refer to the appropriate Switch Installer’s/User’s manual for the location of the
Ethernet port. Figure 1-1 shows the Switch Management connector and the cable
wiring. The Ethernet connection may be made with power applied to the Switch.
