Note: Auto-negotiation must be enabled for automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout configuration.
1000BASE-T Pin Assignments
1000BASE-T ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, so you can use straight-through cables for
all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. The table below shows the
1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port pinouts. These ports require that all four pairs of wires be connected.
Note that for 1000BASE-T operation, all four pairs of wires are used for both transmit and receive. Use
100-ohm Category 5, 5e or better unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for
1000BASE-T connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100
meters (328 feet).
