4.2  Bit Switch 2:  Speed 100/Speed 10 

These  two  bit  switches  are  used  to  select  the  port  operating  speed  manually  when  auto 
negotiation is disabled. This switch is ignored if auto negotiation is enabled. 

The possible selections are:

disabled.  This switch is ignored if auto negotiation is enabled.

4.4  Bit Switch 5: Auto MDI/MDIX  

This switch controls the auto crossover function on the twisted pair port.  When enabled, 
the port will detect the connection and automatically configure itself for either MDI or MDIX 
presentation.  When  auto  crossover  is  enabled,  a  normal  patch  cable  may  be  used 
whatever  devices  are  being  connected.   When  auto  cross  is  disabled  the  RJ45  interface 
presents a normal switch port with MDIX configuration. 

SW5-ON  

 

Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover Enabled 

SW5-OFF
