4.5 Up-Link (Cross-over) Switch
Magnum Media Converters are equipped with an up-link slide switch on the
RJ-45 port to accommodate repeater-to-converter and switch-to-converter connections
without a special cross-over cable.
4.5.1 Up-Link (Cross-over) Switch
When set to the UP position (=), the
Magnum Media Converter is wired for normal
twisted-pair connection to a user node device. When
set to the DOWN position (X), the Media Converter
is wired with cross-over functionality for direct up-link to a network hub or concentrator.
Switch ports may be of either polarity, and this feature is most convenient with switches..
