To accommodate these two types of cables, an Ethernet interface on a devicecan operate in one of the following three Medium Dependent Interface (MDI) modes:z Across modez Normal modez Auto modeAn Ethernet interface is composed of eight pins. By default, each pin has its particular role. For example,pin 1 and pin 2 are used for transmitting signals; pin 3 and pin 6 are used for receiving signals. You canchange the pin roles through setting the MDI mode. For an Ethernet interface in normal mode, the pinroles are not changed. For an Ethernet interface in across mode, pin 1 and pin 2 are used for receiving
