Ensuring Correct 10BaseT Configuration

The 10BaseT cable and RJ-45 connectors for Hub to Terminal connections must be configured as straight through. The 10BaseT cable and RJ-45 connectors for Hub to Hub connections must be configured as crossover. NOTE: When installing the LANMaster T8 Hub using the MDI port, a crossover cable is not needed. The MDI switch can be used to change the straight through configuration to crossover at port 8.
