Front Panel Port Connectors
Ports 1x through 16x have their transmit (TD) and receive (RD) pairs internally crossed.
Standard Category 5 UTP crossover cable is required when connecting these ports to
another hub, switch, or router (unless you are connecting to the uplink port on another
FastHub or 100BaseT hub).
Port 16, which is to the right of port 16x, is the 100BaseTX uplink port. This uplink port is
not internally crossed. Standard Category 5 UTP straight-through cable is required when
connecting this port to another FastHub 100BaseTX port or to the 100BaseTX port on
another hub, switch, or router.
Caution
You will disable both ports if you connect to both the uplink port (port 16) and
port 16x.
For more information on connecting to these ports, see the “Connecting from the
100BaseTX Ports on the FastHub” section in the “Installing the FastHub” chapter.
