Ethernet 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 the switch can connect to another switch or workstation
without changing the straight-through or crossover cabling. See
figure 2 , figure 3 , and figure 4 on page 16, and
figure 5 and figure 6 on page 17 for straight-through and crossover cabling schematics.
Note
“+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each
wire pair.
All ports on this industrial Ethernet switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation. Users can use straight-
through cables (see ) for all network connections to PCs, servers, other switches or hubs. With 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.
table 3 shows the 10ase-T, 100Base-TX, 1000Base-TX MDI and MDI-X port pinouts.
