The hub has 8 TP ports which are presented by 8 RJ-45 jacks. The
jacks labeled 1 through 8 are permanently configured as 10Base-T
MDI-X jacks and the jack labeled '8C' next the jack labeled '8' is an
alternative jack which is configured as MDI jack for the TP port #8.
Both jacks can not be used at the same time.
The MDI-X jacks can support connections to 10Base-T Ethernet
nodes or lower level hubs via 10Base-T UTP cables. The MDI jack
'8C' is used for connecting to an upper level hub.
A 10Base-T UTP cable can be a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded
twisted-pair cable with an RJ45 plug at each end.
