10Base-T/100Base-TX Ports

The 10Base-T/100Base-TX ports use RJ-45 connectors. Figure 2-3 shows an RJ-45 connector being inserted into a port.

Figure 2-3. Inserting an RJ-45 Connector into a Port

The 10Base-T/100Base-TX ports interface to UTP cabling for connection to 10Base-T or 100Base-TX network segments or end-stations. These UTP connections meet the requirements of ISO 8877, specified by 10Base-T, Section 14 of the IEEE 802.3 specification. The ports are wired with the MDI-X function implemented. Workstations or servers can be connected to the ELS100-8TXUF2 switch using standard straight-through wired cables.

For connections to hubs or other switches, a crossover cable may be necessary (refer to the “MDI/MDI-X Crossover Cable Wiring” section in Appendix A). See Table A-2 for 10Base-T/100Base-TX connector pin assignments.
