Table 2 lists the twisted pair port cabling specifications.
Auto MDI/MDI-X
The twisted pair port on the AT-MC1008 Series converter is auto-MDI and
IEEE 802.3ab-compatible. Consequently, you can use either a straight-
through or crossover twisted pair cable when connecting any network
device to a port.
Port Pinouts
For the port pinouts when the ports are operating at 1000 Mbps in the
MDI configuration, refer to Table 7, “MDI and MDI-X Pin Signals
(1000Base-TX),” on page 54.
