5.3.5 Connecting an Ethernet Cable
Based on the network plan, you can connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the
Ethernet port of a USG6510E, USG6510E-POE, USG6530E and the other end to the
Ethernet port of the peer device.
Context
Before connecting the Ethernet cable, perform the following operations:
●
Check construction conditions.
The peer device has been installed in the equipment room, and the port to
which the Ethernet cable is to be connected has been determined.
●
Check the cabling route.
The engineering document should specify the cabling route from the cabinet
to the peer device in the equipment room, and the length of the cable is
calculated based on the cabling path.
●
Label the cable.
The cable must be labeled before being connected to the devices.
NO TICE
● Only shielded cables are supported on the USG.
● Before connecting a cable, note the label on the port and make sure that the
cable is inserted into the correct port. Otherwise, the port module or the device
might be damaged.
Procedure
Step 1 If multiple network cables need to be connected, attach temporary labels to both
ends of each cable for identification.
Step 2 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of the USG and the
other end to the Ethernet port of the peer device based on the network plan.
