RJ-45 Ports (Auto MDI/MDIX)
: The RJ-45 port is auto-sensing for 10/100Base-Tx or 1000Base-
Tx device connections. Auto MDI/MDIX means that the media converter can connect to another
switch or workstation without changing the straight-through or crossover cabling. See the figures
shown below for the straight-through and crossover cabling schematics.
