Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink
The WAG102 can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is autosensing and
capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation.
The wireless access point incorporates Auto Uplink
automatically sense whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a 'normal'
connection such as to a computer or an 'uplink' connection such as to a switch or hub. That port
will then configure itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates any concerns
about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right
connection.
