Crossover Wiring

If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and either both ports are labeled with an
"X" (MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an "X" (MDI), a crossover must be
implemented in the wiring. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on
these switches, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to
any device type.)
You must connect all four wire pairs as shown in the following diagram to support
Gigabit Ethernet connections.

1000BASE-T Pin Assignments

All 1000BASE-T ports on this switch 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 6 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).
