Note

The twisted pair ports on the switch feature auto-MDI when operating at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps. Each port is individually configured as MDI or MDI-X when connected to an end node. Consequently, you can use either a straight-through or crossover twisted pair cable when connecting any network device to a twisted pair port on the switch.

SFP Ports Refer to the Allied Telesis data sheet for the cable specifications of the specific SFP transceiver that you are using.
