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, allowing these ports to be connected to any network device with straight-
through cable. The ports can be connected directly to a computer or to a server equipped with an Ethernet
network interface card, or to a networking device such as an Ethernet hub or switch.
• (1) RJ-45 WAN port for connection to an xDSL or cable modem. This port is fixed at 10 Mbps full-
duplex and only supports MDI-X pin signals. Consequently, you will have to use either a straight-
through or crossover cable, depending on the port type used with the modem.
