AT-FS705LE Fast Ethernet
Switch
Overview
The AT-FS705LE Ethernet Switch is a
10Base-T/100Base-TX unmanaged switch. The
switch provides you with a simple, cost-effective
solution for Ethernet switching between end-
nodes operating at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the front and back
panels of the switch.

Features
The AT-FS705LE switch has the following
features:
❑Five auto-negotiating 10/100 Mbps
twisted pair ports with RJ-45 connectors
❑One Uplink port for connecting the
AT-FS705LE switch to another switch or
hub without a crossover cable
❑IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u compliant
❑External AC/DC power adapter
❑Small compact size for use on a desktop or
wall-mountable

Physical Description
The physical description for the switch
includes:
❑Ports 1 through 4
❑Port 5 and the Uplink port
❑LEDs
❑Power supply
Ports 1 Through 4
Ports 1 through 4 can operate at either 10 Mbps
or 100 Mbps and in either half- or full-duplex
mode. The ports, featuring RJ-45 connectors,
are configured as MDI-X, meaning that you can
connect a workstation or server to one of the
ports without using a crossover cable. The ports
have a maximum operating distance of 100
meters (328 feet) using Category 5 cable.
The ports are IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation
compliant. This means that the ports can
automatically configure their speed and duplex
mode to match the capabilities of the end-nodes
connected to the ports.

4
Port 5 and the Uplink Port
Port 5 and the Uplink port allow you to connect
an additional workstation to the switch or
interconnect the switch with another switch or
hub, without the use of a crossover cable. If you
need to connect an additional workstation to
the switch, use Port 5, which is configured as
MDI-X. If you need to connect the switch to
another Ethernet switch, use the Uplink port,
which is configured as MDI.
Both Port 5 and the Uplink port offer 10 Mbps
or 100 Mbps performance and auto-negotiation
operation for both speed and duplex mode. Both
ports feature a RJ-45 connector and have a
maximum operating distance of 100 meters
(328 feet) using Category 5 cable.
Note
You can use either Port 5 or the Uplink
port, but you cannot use both
simultaneously.
