5. Complete the Network Connections
to the Switch
Connect the switch to the power source. With the switch mounted, you are
now ready to connect it to your network. Typical switch connections are:
■ Switch-to-networked devices (i.e. servers, and printers).
■ Switch-to-hub
■ Switch-to-switch
■ Switch-to-router
Note Refer to the HP AdvanceStack Switch 800T Connectivity Quick Reference that
is shipped with the Switch 800T for examples of Switch 800T connections to
other devices.
For other network design guidelines, refer to An Introduction to Ethernet
LAN Switches and Designing Switched Networks, both of which are included
on the CD shipped with the Switch 800T. For physical topology guidelines,
refer to Designing HP AdvanceStack Workgroup Networks, available from
HP authorized LAN dealers and also on the CD shipped with your Switch 800T.
Network connections to the Switch 800T are through ports on the optional
transceivers installed in the switch.
