Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.Nothing; the switch works the same if you use all ports, or only a few.If you need to connect additional computers, you can either get a larger switch, or connect two switches between themselves.
can you connect wireless modem to a switch which will to two routers
To connect a PC to a switch you should use a straight through UTP cable.
Connect a wire from each PC to an unused port on the switch.
You connect up to 5 devices with HDMI cables to the switch, and connect the switch output to your TV with another HDMI cable. You the selector switch or the remote to go between the devices.
Uplink connections are typically used to connect the switch to a higher level switch, that is more powerful and closer to the backbone.On basic switch models, the regular ports are MDIX ports, meant to connect directly to a PC. The Uplink port is then an MDI port, which can connect (with a straight cable) to an MDIX port on a different switch. Often the highest numbered port (8, 16, or 24 for instance) has one MDIX port in the regular set and an MDI uplink next to it, but you can only use one of these two.You can use a crossover cable to connect MDIX to MDIX or MDI to MDI port.On more modern switches, ports are often MDI/MDIX autosensing and this reason for existence of uplink ports has passed (all Gigabit Ethernet has this, and many 100 Mbit Ethernet).In the mean time, however, switch models have come into being which have faster speed uplink ports. For instance, 10 Mbit switches with 1 or 2 100 Mbit ports to connect to the core network, or these days 100 Mbit switches with a few Gigabit ports.
A crossover cable.
The function of a switch is to break and connect the flow of electricity.
we use straight cable to connect between the router and switch as router and switch are different devices.
Is a crossover cable needed to connect Host computers to the switch? Why or why not?
Yes, you if you printer has network interface (NIC). u can connect them through routers or switch
They can; that is the usual function of a switch.
