4. Cascading Switches and Other Network Devices: All the ports on
the switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration for cable
connections. This allows you to use straight-through cable to connect
to other switches or hubs from any port on the switch. No crossover
cables or other device settings are needed. See the "Cable
Specifications" on page 11 of this guide for further information.
Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. This
may damage the switch. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables
with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
