Network Ports
All the fixed twisted-pair ports are wired as MDI-X. Therefore, to connect end
nodes or other MDI-type devices to these ports, use "straight-through" twisted-
pair cable; to connect hubs, switches, or other MDI-X-type devices to these
ports, use "crossover" twisted-pair cable. See appendix B, "Cables and
Connectors" for descriptions of these cables.
The cabling to the transceiver port depends on the type of transceiver
installed. For more information, refer to the manual that came with the
transceiver.
