All of the ports on the front of the Switch 3300 are configured as MDIX
(cross-over). If you want to make a connection to another MDIX port, you
need a cross-over cable. Most of the 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX ports on
3Com devices are MDIX-only. Many ports on workstations and servers are
configured as MDI (straight-through). If you want to make a connection
to an MDI port, you need to use a standard straight-through cable. This is
