Table 7 contains the cabling specifications for the twisted pair ports.
Note
The twisted pair ports on the switch feature auto-MDI/MDI-X. They
are configured automatically by the switch as MDI or MDI-X when
connected to an end-node. Consequently, you can use a straight-
through twisted pair cable to connect any type of network device
to a switch port.
