Table F-1 lists the RJ-45 (8-pin modular) port connector pin assignments.
MDI and MDI-X Devices
Media dependent interface (MDI) is the IEEE standard for the interface to
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.
For two devices to communicate, the transmitter of one device must connect to the
receiver of the other device. The connection is established through a crossover
function, which can be a crossover cable or a port that implements the crossover
function internally.

Ports that implement the crossover function internally are known as MDI-X ports,
