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.
