6.3.13.4 Active Link Polarity Detection and Correction

Swapping the wires within the twisted-pair can cause polarity errors, and the wrong polarity affects 10BASE-Te connections. 100BASE-TX is immune to polarity problems because it's based on MLT-3 encoding. 10BASE-Te receive block automatically detects reversed polarity.
