We have implemented WLAN using Cisco WLAN controller (5508) and AP (AIR-CAP3502E-E-K9), i am trying to connect AP (which have gigabit port) with Layer 3 switch using UTP Cat-6 Cable having 24 AWG Wire Gauge.
What maximum length i can achieve by using above mentioned cable?
I have seen 5-port network switches (for home network use)for sale that list CAT5 and CAT5e as the cabling. My question is, can CAT6 cable be used with these switches without performance issues?

I'm thinking of making a security system for my house (and possibly selling and setting up for others) based off usb 1080p webcams. I read online the max length of a usb cable is 5m before you need a hub to act like a repeater. Could I simply buy a cat6 (or 7) cable, splice the usb into it, and then unsplice at the computer as a workaround?

The end user is already using Cat 6 cables and someone from the committee told that these Switches does not support Cat 6 cables and that the SLM224GT doesn't work correctly with an existing SG200 (SLM2008T) switch.

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust about to run about 30 metres of Ethernet cable underground from one building to another. I know there's quite a few forums like this which suggest to go for cat5 mostly for the price, not sure when these were advised but cat6 doesn't seem to be too much more now...
So just wondering if it will be worth going for cat6 for a future reference if you will, ideally if products ever advance to support it. Just that I don't fancy digging up the cable in a year or so.
Of course I'd rather go for cat5e but wouldn't mind adding a bit to the budget if it's worth it?
Also does anyone know if it's any more difficult to fit the connecters to cat6e? Are they just the same as rj45?
I just bought and received a Cat6 200ft Ethernet cable from Amazon, linkIt is going from a router to my PC and is not working. My old Ethernet cable works just fine from said router to PC. I do not know why this one is not working. I tested the cable out on my laptop and it works fine for that. I am not sure what info to post about my PC, but I am using an Asrock z68 Extreme3 Gen3 motherboard as my lan connector.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a Dlink DIR-655 router for my wired and wireless router for my home network. I have a 100ft cat6 ethernet cable. I pulled it from the router to my home server in my basement.
Does the 100ft cable make a difference or does the fact that it's a cat6 cable make a difference?
When moving similar files at work, it's faster. So I'm trying to find out what's the bottleneck at home. What speeds should I expect for a home network?
I just ran Cat6 from my WNDR3700 to a netgear NeoTV550. WNDR is in the computer room and the Neo is in the living room. Cat6 had to be fished downstairs, around the bathroom wall and over the solid plaster ceiling. Fun times! My question is, should I add a switch to the connection on the far end, essentially creating a trunk sans dot1.q tagging and then plug the Neo in? Or should I just plug directly into the Neo?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe core switch is a 6506 and one of the modules is the 48port POE module. The 6506 resides in the main building and we need to interconnect two other annexes to the main building via fibre. is it possible to have just 2 sfp ports on the 48 port module or how to connect the fibre cable to the switch?
Also, if the existent network is made up of Cat5e cables would it be of anyuse to use Cat6 cables for uplink for the switches on each segment to the core switch. I feel basically the Cat5e would nullify the speed of the Cat6 or am i wrong and this would make uplink speed faster.
I have an underground cable connecting a classroom to the main server.
If I plug any computer directly into the underground cable it connects to the server fine.
If I plug a switch into the cable, none of the computers connected to the switch gets an IP address from the server. When I try to assign manual IP addresses I also can't connect.
But when I use the same switch and plug it into the server using a shorter cable everything works.
I need a ≥ 8 port layer 3 managed switch. What would be the cheapest solution for this?I've been looking at some stuff like Cisco 4908G, but that only supports 1000base-X. I need something that supports the standard 1000base-T. I've also looked at a Cisco WS-C3508G-XL-EN, but correct me if I'm wrong, this is only layer 2?

View 11 Replies View RelatedI created a lab and I have a few issues. One with a layer 3 switch and another with a ASA 5550.
1. Layer 3 switch: I have created multiple Vlans and I am able to route between them. I can ping the switch IP but not the default gateway to the ASA. I did a tracert of the default gateway of the ASA and once I am past the Vlan gateway it fails.
2. On the ASA 5550 I created the Vlans on sub-interfaces but still cannot get to the internet. ASA config is below the switch config.
I'm looking at implementing a cisco 3550 Layer 3 switch and would like to know if i can forward ports down to all of my different Subnet Servers/Pc's.
For example. See attached image.10.0.3.5 is a mail server. 4.2.2.2 is our public IP.
I would like to forward TCP port 25 down to our Mail servers IP. Any reason this will not work by using the cisco 3550? Currently we have a flat network (1 subnet) and port forwarding works fine.
I am tryingto add a new VLAN on my C3560E Layer 3 switch for administration purpose.My goal is to make this VLAN for administration only and to let the administrators from 172.17.1.1 connect to any host of the internal network 172.16.0.0 plus exit to the internet via the default gateway 172.16.1.245.
Here an extract of what done so far:
ip routing
spanning-tree mode pvst
spanning-tree extend system-id
vlan internal allocation policy ascending
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
[Code]...
What happened is that:
1. The host connected to Vlan30 can correctly ping the interface it is connected to.
2, The internal network can access the internet
3. The host connected to VLAN30 cannot access the internet and cannot connect to any internal server.
Do I have to add a static route? This is a production envuironment and it is my first experiment with a layer3 switching in production, so I cannot mistake
Recently I have faced following problem in my office, We have purchased two new Dell Server Power Edge R910 with built-in 10GB FC Network card. Service tag of this two servers are given bellow.
1. 7D94C2S
2. 6D94C2S
You can can Check specification of this two server from dell website{ URL}
We have two CISCO switch and model is given bellow:
Brand: CISCO
Model: WS-C3560E-12SD
We want to connect server to switch through FC cable and both switch have SPF module. But when we connect server to switch, link do not establish even switch and server port light become off.
Then we have tested the following things:
1. Connect server to server through FC cable, it is okay.
2. Connect switch to switch through same FC cable, it is okay.
I don't understand why it is not working.
I would like to ask if it is possibe to stack a 3Com 3cr17161-91 to a layer 3 Cisco Switch? The two will be stacked using the avaialble SFP modules.

I've created a scenario using a 3750 cisco as core switch ad other 6 switch model 2900 in access level.my problem is this, the router is not a cisco router, and this router is not able to make NAT on more than one subnet.Into the core switch I've created 4 VLAN and I must to give internet access to 3 of them, 192.168.0.0/24 (vlan1), 172.16.0.0/24 (vlan2), 172.17.0.0/24 (vlan3).I've connected the switch to router via gigabit ethernet 0/1 and I've assigned to this interface ip address 192.168.10.2, the router ip address is 192.168.10.1, Switch ip default-gateway is router ip address 192.168.10.1, ip default route is 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.10.1 I've enabled ip routing feature and I've set no switchport feature to interface gigabit ethernet 0/1.From core switch I can ping router ip address but I can't make it from all other user, and the users not able to have internet access.
Below the switch configuration (only necessary strings)
version 12.1
no service pad
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
no service password-encryption
[code].....
My understanding is that even layer 2 switches like the Cisco 3500XL can have 1 IP address for management. However, I cannot seem to figure out how to configure it to get it working in a router on a stick setup. I can manage the router through SSH, but I cannot SSH to the switch.
