Ports
 RJ-45 ports
The (RJ-45) Fast Ethernet ports will auto-sense for 10Base-T or 100Base-TX
connections. Auto MDI/MDIX means that the switch can connect to another switch or
workstation without changing straight through or crossover cabling. Please refer to the
table below for RJ-45 pin assignment.

Note “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire
pair.
All ports on this industrial switch supports automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, users can
use straight-through cables (See figure below) for all network connections to PCs or
servers, or to 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 shows the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX MDI and MDI-X
port pin outs.
