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 a USG and the other end to the
Ethernet port of the peer device based on the network plan.

Step 3 Lay out the Ethernet cable along a cabinet and route the cable through the cable hole for the
signal cables at the top (overhead cabling) or bottom (underfloor cabling) of the cabinet.
Step 4 Remove the temporary labels and attach labels (2 cm away from the connectors) at both ends
of the Ethernet cable.

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.
