AT-FS708LE Installation Guide

To connect two 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps network

devices together that have dissimilar port

wiring configurations, such as an MDI to

MDI-X, you would use a straight-through

twisted pair cable. To connect two networks

devices that have the same wiring

configuration, such as MDI to MDI, you would

use a crossover cable.

The AT-FS708LE switch features automatic

MDI/MDI-X. Each RJ-45 port automatically

determines the configuration of the port on the

device to which it is connected and then

configures itself appropriately. For example, if

a port on a switch is connected to a port on a

bridge, which is typically wired as MDI, the

port on the switch automatically configures

itself as MDI-X. This feature allows you to use

either a crossover cable or a straight-through

cable when connecting a device to a twisted pair

port.
