2.3.1 Port Speeds
10/100Mbps TP ports
Each 10/100Mbps TP port provides an Auto-Negotiation function and an Auto-Crossover (Auto-MDI/MDIX) function that senses
for the attached device's maximum operating speed and automatically sets the Switch to operate at that speed. Each TP port
uses RJ-45 connector that allows network TP cables to be easily attached or removed. Users only need to connect a network
device into any TP port and the Switch will do the rest.
2.3.2 Cabling
10Mbps – Category 3, 4, or 5 TP cabling can be used for transmitting data at 10Mbps or 20Mbps bandwidth on 10BASE-T
networks.
100Mbps – Only Category 5 TP cabling can be used for transmitting data at 100Mbps or 200Mbps bandwidth on 100BASE-TX
networks.
