Connecting to a Computer
The RJ-45 connectors labeled 1X to 16X can be used for connecting to the network adapter installed in a computer. The network adapter can be a 10BASE-T adapter, a 100BASE-TX adapter, or a dual-speed NWay adapter. The following figure illustrates the cables used for connecting to different network adapters:

Connecting to 10BASE-T Hubs
The hub can support more than one connection to the 10BASE-T hub. Make sure the MDI-X to MDI-I connection rule is followed when con- necting to a 10BASE-T hub using a straight-through UTP cable. The following figure shows an example for the connections:
