Connecting the Hub To Other Devices
You can connect hubs to other network devices through the dual-speed MDI/
MDI-X RJ-45 port on the front of the hub.
Cable Types and MDI/MDI-X Modes
You can use standard straight through Ethernet cables to connect your hub to PCs,
printers, or servers. If you want to connect your BayStack 60-12T/60-24T 10/100
Ethernet Hub to routers, switches, and other hubs you must use a crossover cable
unless you set the MDI/MDI-X button to uplink. You can only configure port 1
with the MDI/MDI-X button.
