In RS232 DTE mode, ports transmit to DTE devices on pin 2 and receive from DTE on pin 3.
Note
Pins 7 and 8 are connected internally. In RS232 mode, these pins enter a high
impedance state. A DTE that asserts RTS will see CTS asserted. However, the device
will not perform hardware flow control.

The DSR, DCD and DTR pins are connected together internally.
In RS232 mode, the RJ45 ports conform to EIA-561 DTE, which transmit on TXD and receive on RXD.
Note
Pins 1, 2 and 3 and pins 7 and 8 are connected internally. In RS232 mode, these pins
enter a high impedance state. A DTE that asserts RTS will see CTS asserted. However,
the device will not perform hardware flow control.
