Fast Link Pulse (FLP) coding for the 100BASE-TX signaling system. When connecting a NIC to the CS14-Sereis, it may be necessary to reload the NIC drivers on the user device if the NIC has been communicating with a protocol other than 100BASE-TX (such as 10BASE-T).
100Mbps Ethernet, and can communicate with 10 Mb domain too. Magnum CS14 & CSN14 Series units are plug-and-play devices. There is no software configuring to be done at installation or for maintenance. The only hardware configuration settings is user options for port#2, to configure at FF/AN and can be done through a manual switch accessed from the front side.

Packets needed for maintaining the operation of the network (such as occasional multi-cast packets) are forwarded to all ports. The Magnum CS14 & CSN14 Series Converter Switches operate in the store-and-forward switching mode, which eliminates bad packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is heavy traffic on the network.
The Magnum CS14 & CSN14 Series units have address table capacity of 2K node addresses, and are suitable for use in large networks. They are self-learning, so that as nodes are added or removed or moved from one segment to another, the CS14 & CSN14 Series automatically keeps up with node locations.
CS14 & CSN14 Series Converter Switches Installation and User Guide (09/09) When an RJ-45 cable connection is made, and each time LINK is enabled, auto- negotiation takes place (except for legacy products, which do not have auto-negotiation and which go to the default state accordingly). The Magnum Switch advertises its capability for 10 or 100 Mbps speed and F/H duplex mode, and the device at the other end of the cable should similarly advertise / respond.
