More Information
Summary:The communication device, which is connectable by straight or crossover wiring to another communication device, comprises a transmission port configured to send signals to the other communication device, a reception port configured to receive signals, a communication controller including an automatic transmission and reception switching component that determines whether or not the wiring is correct and automatically switches the transmission and reception of signals by the transmission port and the reception port 1, and a wiring state notification component. The controller (i) actuates the automatic transmission and reception switching component when communication with the other communication device has not been established in a state in which the automatic transmission and reception switching component is not actuated, and (ii) through the wiring state notification component, outputs information that there is an error in the wiring when communication with the other communication device has been established as a result of (i).
