another hub or an Ethernet switch, you should use a crossover cable, or make the connection using the MDI-Xjack (described below).
♦Uplink Jack(s) (MDI-II):Use this jack to connect stations to the hub. This is an MDI-II(Medium-dependent Interface, straight- wired) jack, which means you can connect the hub to a device with an MDI-Xport using an ordinary straight-through cable, making a crossover cable unnecessary.
