10/100/1000BaseT Connectors

The adaptive security appliance supports 10/100/1000BaseT ports. You must use at least a Category 5
cable for 100/1000baseT operations, but a Category 3 cable can be used for 10BaseT operations.
The 10/100/1000BaseT ports use standard RJ-45 connectors and supports MDI and MDI-X connectors.
Ethernet ports normally use MDI connectors and Ethernet ports on a hub normally use an MDI-X connector.
Use an Ethernet straight-through cable to connect an MDI to an MDI-X port. Use a cross-over cable to
connect an MDI to an MDI port, or an MDI-X to an MDI-X port.
