NOTE: The controller supports the MDI/MDIX auto-crossover cable function. It is not necessary to use special Ethernet crossover cables to connect devices directly to this port (connections without an Ethernet hub or switch).

NOTE: Ethernet cable disconnection is detected every second. In case of disconnection of a short duration (< 1 second), the network status may not indicate the disconnection.
