‘Port 2’ are connected directly. Therefore a connection is also possible
when the TAP is turned off. If the TAP is on and the a connection is
established, the link LEDs will be on. Between the two Ports the TX
and RX pins are exchanged. If a 1:1 cable must be monitored it must
be connected to the TAP and the TAP must be connected to the other
device using a crossover cable. If the devices are Auto-MDI-X capable
no attention must be paid on the kind of cable.
