Straight-Through Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal
crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. (The CPE RJ-45
port auto-negotiates MDI or MDI-X pinout selection, allowing you to use either
straight-thorough or crossover cable when connecting to another network device.)
Crossover Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and either both ports are labeled with an
“X” (MDI-X) or neither port is labeled with an “X” (MDI), a crossover must be
implemented in the wiring. (The CPE RJ-45 port auto-negotiates MDI or MDI-X
pinout selection, allowing you to use either straight-thorough or crossover cable
when connecting to another network device.)
