Crossover Wiring
Because the 10/100 Mbps port on the access point uses an MDI pin configuration,
you must use “crossover” cable for network connections to PCs, servers or other
end nodes that only have MDI ports. However, if the device to which you are
connecting supports auto-MDIX operation, you can use either “straight-through” or
“crossover” cable.
