RJ-45 Ports
RJ-45 Ports (Auto MDI/MDIX): The RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing for 10Base-T, 100Base-TX,
and 1000Base-T connections. Auto MDI/MDIX means that the switch can connect to another
switch or workstation without changing the straight-through or crossover cabling. See the figures
as below for straight-through and crossover cabling schematics.

All ports on this industrial Ethernet switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation. Users can
use straight-through cables (see figure below) 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. The table below
(Table 2.3) shows the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port pin outs.
Note
“+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair.
