Straight-Through Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal
crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through.
Figure C-2 Straight-Through Wiring
Crossover Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and either both ports are labeled with an
“X” (MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an “X” (MDI), a crossover must be
implemented in the wiring.
