HUAWEI USG6000 Unified Security Gateway
Hardware Guide
Ethernet cables fall into crossover and straight through cables. Currently, Ethernet ports on
most devices can dynamically adapt to both types of cables. Use proper cables for devices that
do not support dynamic adaptation.
By electromagnetic compatibility, Ethernet cables can be classified into ordinary and shielded
cables. The shielded cables are preferred due to their better electromagnetic compatibility.
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.

Step 4 Remove the temporary labels and attach labels (2 cm away from connectors) at both ends of
the Ethernet cable.
