Ports
RJ-45 ports (Auto MDI/MDIX): The RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing for
10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T devices connections. Auto
MDI/MDIX means that you can connect to another switch or workstation
without changing straight through or crossover cabling. See figures as
below for straight through and crossover cable schematic.

Note
“+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up
each wire pair.
All ports on this industrial switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X
operation, you can use straight-through cables (See Figure below) for
all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.
In straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are
connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 at the other end of the
cable. The table below shows the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000Base-T
MDI and MDI-X port pin outs.
