3.8 Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45 ports)
The Magnum S14-Series Convenient Switches can be connected to only one
media type with two different speed i.e. 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. CAT 5 cables
should be used when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as
10BASE-T ports, CAT 3 may be used. In either case, the maximum distance for
unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100 meters (328 ft).

NOTE : It is recommended that high quality CAT. 5 cables (which work for both 10 Mbps
and 100Mbps) be used whenever possible in order to provide flexibility in a
mixed-speed network, since S14-series switch ports are auto-cross(MDIX) for
either 10 and 100Mbps. Note that the auto-cross function does not operate, if the
port is fixed or not supporting auto-negotiation.
