When enabled, Auto-Negotiation negotiates port speed and duplex mode by detecting the highest common denominator port connection for the endstations. For example, if one workstation supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps speed ports, while the other workstation only supports 10 Mbps, then Auto-Negotiation sets the port speed to 10 Mbps.

The C360-PWR switches will supply power to a port only after it has detected a suitable PD (powered device) is connected to the port.

    Appendix A: Mixed Stacks This appendix covers deployment of the C360 in mixed stack environments. Please refer to the relevant section for information. Tip: For additional information, see the Release Notes or the Avaya Support site: Tip: http://support.avaya.com. You may stack the C360 with P333T-PWR, P332G-ML and P332GT-ML switches and G700 Media Gateway, subject to certain limitations which are described in this appendix.

  • Page 214: Hardware Compatibility

    This section describes hardware compatibility issues. Stacking Tip: It is recommended to put the C360 switches at the bottom or top of a mixed stack Tip: for easier connection of cables. You may use the same Octaplane cables for stacking all the switches. However, the stacking modules are not interchangeable.
