Ports 2 through 24 are MDI-X 10BASE-T Ethernet ports. Port 1 is a
10BASE-T Ethernet port, with a sliding switch that enables a connection to a
network station (in the MDI-X setting) or to a repeater, bridge, or hub (in the
MDI setting). 10BASE-T connections require a twisted-pair cable, a
maximum of 100 meters long, with RJ-45 connectors at both ends. You can
use shielded twisted-pair cable or 0.4-0.6 mm (22-26 AWG) 8-wire
unshielded twisted-pair cable for the connection.
