VES-1000 Series Ethernet Switch
The line from the user carries both the VDSL and the voice signals. For each line, switches in the VES-1000
Series have a built-in splitter that separates the high frequency VDSL signal from the voice band signal and feeds
the VDSL signal to the VES-1000 Series switch, while the voice band signal is diverted to the CO port.
2.4.3 10/100M Auto-Sensing Ethernet
VES-1000 Series switches have two 10/100Mbps auto-sensing Ethernet ports. There are two factors related to
Ethernet: speed and duplex mode. In 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet, the speed can be 10Mbps or 100Mbps and the
duplex mode can be half duplex or full duplex. The auto-negotiation capability makes one Ethernet port able to
negotiate with a peer automatically to obtain the connection speed and duplex mode that both ends support.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port on the VES-1000 Series switch negotiates with the peer
automatically to determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-
negotiation or turns off this feature, the VES-1000 Series switch determines the connection speed by detecting the
signal on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the VES-1000 Series switch's auto-negotiation is turned
off, an Ethernet port uses the pre-configured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring
you to make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
You may also bundle the two Ethernet ports into one logical 200Mbps link.
Default Settings
The factory default settings for the Ethernet ports on the VES-1000 Series switch are:
o Speed: Auto
o Duplex: Auto
o Flow control: On
o Trunking: Disabled
Use a straight through Ethernet cable when connecting the VES-1000 Series switch to an Ethernet switch. Use a
crossover Ethernet cable if you are daisy-chaining the VES-1000 Series switch to another and make sure trunking
is disabled.
