the attached device's maximum operating speed and automatically sets the
Switch to operate at that speed. Users only need to connect a network device
into any TP port. Auto-MDIX is also supported on all TP ports which allows
uplinking to another Switch free of cross-over or straight cable selection hassle.

2.3.2 Cabling

10Mbps -When transmitting at 10Mbps Category 3, 4 or 5 TP cabling with

100Mbps -To transmit at 100Mbps requires Category 5 TP cabling.
