12 RJ45 10BASE-T Ports
You can use these ports to connect 10BASE-T DTE (workstations or
other equipment) to the Baseline Switch. The equipment that is
connected to the Baseline Switch must not be set up to operate in
full duplex. Set it up to operate as auto-negotiate or half duplex.

MDI Switch (for port 12)
Ports 1–11 are fixed as MDIX ports so that they can be connected
directly to DTE which have MDI ports using normal ‘straight through’
TP cables.

Port 12 is ‘switch selectable’ using the MDI Switch. The port can be

To connect a 10BASE-T unit to the Baseline Switch, connect an MDIX
port on the 10BASE-T unit to port 12 on the Baseline Switch, as
shown below. Ensure that the MDI switch on the Baseline Switch is
IN (MDI). If an MDI/MDIX port is used on the 10BASE-T unit, ensure
that the MDI switch for that port is OUT (MDIX).
