The "uplink" port. If it doesn't have one, you will have to use a crossover cable.


When is the uplink connection used on a switch?

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.


What is the method to connect two hubs together?

you will need a crossover cable to do it. Just plug it in Gaurav Phade ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You will need a crossover cable to connect hubs that have no uplink ports. However if the hubs have uplink ports you can get away with using a normal CAT5 ethernet cable. Some of the larger TP-Link hubs are usually designed so that every port on the hub can act as an uplink port! Regards Phillip Hurrell Cert IT & Comp (Open)

How do you connect a wireless router to a hub?

All you have to do is run a CAT-5 cable from one of the ports on your wirless router to the Uplink on your HUB....also keep in mind that when you plug something into the uplink port sometimes there is another port that you MUST LEAVE OPEN in order for the hub to work properly....to find out if this is the case look up the router on the manufacturer's website....and if you don't know what model it is or you're having trouble finding out the manufacturer usually you can find a sticker on the hub that has a combination of letters and/or numbers....take one of them at a time and google them....usually at least one of the numbers will let you know what company makes it and you can go from there

How do you connect 2 network switches together on the same network?

In the case of ethernet, you need a "crossover" ethernet cable connected between two regular ports or a regular ethernet cable connected to an "uplink port" on one switch and a regular port on the other. Uplink ports are sometimes called "MDI" ports. Both types of cable are available at most computer and office supply stores.
