Hub-to-Switch Installation
A hub (10/100Base-TX) can be connected to the AT-FS704 using a two-pair
Category 5 UTP/STP RJ45 straight cable. Connect the hub uplink (MDI) port
to any of the switch (MDI-X) ports, 1X-4X. See Figure 7.

Hub-to-Switch Installation (without uplink port)
If a hub is not equipped with an uplink (MDI) port, then connection can be
made using either straight cable or crossover cable (see “Appendix A, Technical
Specifications” for cable requirements). Figure 8 demonstrates connection with
straight or crossover cable.
