ProSAFE Single Band 802.11n Wireless Access Point WN203 • Roaming among wireless access points on the same subnet Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink The wireless access point can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation. The wireless access point incorporates Auto Uplink technology. The Ethernet port automatically senses whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a "normal" connection such as to a computer or an "uplink" connection such as to a switch or hub. That port then configures itself correctly. This feature also eliminates any concerns about crossover cables, because Auto Uplink accommodates either type of cable to make the right connection.

Autosensing Ethernet Connections with Auto Uplink
The wireless access point can connect to a standard Ethernet network. The LAN interface is
autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation.
The wireless access point incorporates Auto Uplink technology. The Ethernet port
automatically senses whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a
“normal” connection such as to a computer or an “uplink” connection such as to a switch or
hub. That port then configures itself correctly. This feature also eliminates any concerns
about crossover cables, because Auto Uplink accommodates either type of cable to make
the right connection.
