SMC Networks Barricade Plus SMC7004FW User Manual page 20

• 4 RJ-45 ports for connection to a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). These ports can auto-
negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to
half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X (i.e.,
allowing these ports to be connected to any network device
with straight-through cable). These ports can be connected
directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an Ethernet
network interface card, or to a networking device such as an
Ethernet hub or switch.
• One RJ-45 port for connection to an xDSL or cable modem. This
port is fixed at 10/100 Mbps, full duplex. This port only
supports MDI-X pin signals, so you will have to use either
straight- through or crossover cable depending on the port type
used on the modem.
