4. Cascading Switches and Other Network Devices: All the ports on the
switch support automatic MDI/MDI-X configuration for cable
connections. This allows you to use straight-through cable to connect
to other switches or hubs from any port on the switch. No crossover
cables or other device settings are needed. See the “Cable
Specifications” on page 9 of this guide for further information.
Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 por t. This
may damage the switch. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables
with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
