Cabling - B&B Electronics EIR405-SFP-T User Manual

All copper ports on the EIR405-SFP-T support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you
can use straight-through cables (See Figure below) for all network connections to PCs or
servers, or to other switches or hubs. In straight-through cables, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one
end of the cable, are connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 at the other end of
