    Active Flow Control Ether-FSH2400N Fast Ethernet Switch implements in full duplex mode a flow control that is compliant with the IEEE 802.3x standard. While in half duplex mode, it employs an optional Back Pressure Flow Control to stall the incoming data when port buffers are saturated. With this flow control mechanism, it can be ensured that frames dropped during transmission are reduced to a minimum.

  • Page 20 4 Expanding your Network Use a straight-through cable for the connection made through the station port of Ether-FSH2400N to any station port of the other switch/hub. Since Ether-FSH2400N Switch is capable of auto-crossing over by its Auto-MDI and Auto-MDI-X function, you don’t have to use a crossover cable such as is usually required for this kind of switch-to-switch/hub connection with other switch.
  • Page 21: Transmission Modes

    Transmission Modes Station Ports (10/100BASE-TX Transmission) All 10/100Mbps station ports of Ether-FSH2400N Fast Ethernet Switch utilize auto-negotiation to determine the transmission mode for any new connection. This means, if auto-negotiation is supported on both ends of the connection, the Switch is initiated to negotiate for one of the following transmission modes: •...
