matched up properly. When two hubs or switches are connected to
each other, or two end stations are connected to each other, a
crossover cable is used to ensure that the correct pairs are connected.
The possible field values are:
MDIX (Media Dependent Interface with Crossover) — Use for hubs
■
and switches.
MDI (Media Dependent Interface) — Use for end stations.
■
