A brief description of Switch 7700 I/O modules are listed below:
48-port 10/100Base-T auto-sensing fast Ethernet card
■
8-port 1000Base-X (Gigabit Interface Converter or GBIC) Gigabit Ethernet card
■
8-port 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet card
■
24-port 100Base-FX MMF fast Ethernet card
■
The Ethernet ports of the Switch 7700 have the following features:
10/100Base-T Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, and can be
■
configured to operate in half/full duplex mode or auto-negotiation mode to
negotiate the duplex mode and speed with other network devices. This also
allows you to select the optimal mode automatically.
100BaseFX MMF Ethernet ports operate in 100M full duplex mode. The duplex
■
mode can be configured as full (full duplex) or auto (auto-negotiation). The
speed can be set to 100 (100Mbps) or auto (auto-negotiation).
1000BaseX Ethernet ports work in gigabit full duplex mode. The duplex mode
■
can be configured as full (full duplex) or auto (auto-negotiation). The speed can
be set to 1000 (1000Mbps) or auto (auto-negotiation).
10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, and the
■
modes are 1000 full duplex, 100M half/full duplex, and 10M half/full duplex.
