10/100BASE-TX Twisted-Pair Ports (Port1~24): These ports support network speeds of either
10Mbps or 100Mbps, and can operate in half- and full- duplex transfer modes. These ports
also support automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection, giving true “plug and play” capability.
Just need to plug-in the network cable to the hub directly and don’t care if the end node is NIC
(Network Interface Card) or switch and hub.
