2.2.1 Ports Speed
100Base-TX
All 100Base-TX ports come with auto-negotiation capability.
They automatically support 100Base-TX and 10Base-T
networks. Users only need to plug a working network device
into one of the 100Base-TX ports, then turn on the hub. The
port will automatically runs in 10Mbps, 20Mbps, 100Mbps or
200Mbps after the negotiation with the connected device.
2.2.2 Cabling
Fast Ethernet Switch 100Base-TX ports use RJ-45 sockets --
similar to phone jacks -- for connection of unshielded
twisted-pair cable (UTP). The IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet
standard
requires
100Base-TX. 10Base-T networks can use Cat.3, 4, or 5 UTP
(see table A)
