In order to feed the transmitted data from one end of the connection to the receive pins on the
other end:
MDI (computers and uplink) ports are connected to MDIX (hub or switch) ports via straight-
through twisted pairs.
MDIX (normal) ports on switches or hubs are connected to each other via a crossover cable.
Figure 5-1 Crossover and Straight-Through Connections
When automatic crossover detection is defined, you can interconnect any combination of
MDI/MDIX ports using either type of cable (crossover or straight-through) without
distinction.
By default, crossover detection is automatic.
