No, that is not true, it adds an additional ground on 3&6.  So to obtain a
gigabit connection you have + on 4&5 and - on 3&6, 7&8.  All of the present
day UBNT gear is like this since they added gigabit Ethernet.  When we
upgrade we add a jumper to 3&6 to get it to negotiate at gigabit, but they
seem to operate at 100FDX without it.
