Because the switch has the IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X features, the connections between the switch and the hubs,
and between the switch and end nodes or servers, can be through category 5 straight-through or crossover
twisted-pair cable.
If the connection is 10 Mbps only, then category 3 or 4 cable can also be used. In all cases, the device ports must
be configured to auto negotiate the link characteristics for this feature to work.
