Copper ports on the switch can automatically detect the type of cable config
uration (MDI or MDI-X) on a connected device and adjust to operate appro
priately.
This means you can use a “straight-through” twisted-pair cable or a “cross-
over” twisted-pair cable for any of the connections—the port makes the
necessary adjustments to accommodate either one for correct operation. The
following port types on your switch support the IEEE 802.3ab standard, which
includes the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature:
