RJ-45 ports
There are 10/100/1000Mbps ports for 10Base-T, 100Base-TX or 1000Base-T devices
connection which UTP ports will auto-sense. Auto MDI/MDIX means that the switch can
connect to another switch or workstation without changing straight through or crossover
cabling. See the figures below for straight through and crossover cable schematic.

[NOTE]
―+‖ and ―-‖ signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair.
All ports on this industrial switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, user can use
straight-through cables (See figure below) for all network connections to PCs or servers,
or to other switches/hubs. In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the
cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 at the other end of the cable.
The table below shows the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port
pin outs.
