Auto MDI/MDI-X Connection
The Auto MDI/MDI-X function allows users to connect the EDS-505A/508A’s
10/100BaseTX ports to any kind of Ethernet device, without needing to pay
attention to the type of Ethernet cable being used for the connection. This
means that you can use either a straight-through cable or cross-over cable to
connect the EDS-505A/508A to Ethernet devices.
Fiber Ports
The fiber ports are factory-built as either multi-mode or single-mode SC/ST
connectors. Therefore, you should use fiber cables that have SC/ST connectors
at both ends. When plugging the connector into the port, make sure the slider
guide is positioned to the right side such that it fits snuggly into the port.
