Page 17: Full-Duplex
The BlackDiamond 6800 switch provides full-duplex support for all ports. Full-duplex allows frames to be transmitted and received simultaneously and, in effect, doubles the bandwidth available on a link. All ports on the BlackDiamond 6800 switch autonegotiate for half- or full-duplex operation. Gigabit Ethernet and 100BASE-FX ports operate in full-duplex mode, only. -
