Cable Specifications
Table 5 lists the cable specifications for the twisted pair ports.
Note
The twisted pair ports on the switch feature auto-MDI when
operating at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps. A port is automatically
configured as MDI or MDI-X when connected to an end node.
Consequently, you can use straight-through twisted pair cable when
connecting any type of network device to a port on the switch.
