♦ All ports can auto-negotiate (NWay) between 10Mbps/
100Mbps, half-duplex or full duplex and flow control.
♦ One rear panel slide-in module interface for a 1-port
1000BASE-SX
Gigabit
connecting to another switch.
♦ One slide-in module interface in the front panel for 1
or 2 port
10/100M Ethernet
modules are available: 2 ports TX module, 2 ports FX
MT-RJ type module, and 1 port FX SC type module.
♦ RS-232 DCE Diagnostic port (console port) for setting
up and managing the Switch via a connection to a
console terminal or PC using a terminal emulation
program.
Performance features
♦ Store and forward switching scheme capability to
support rate adaptation and protocol conversion.
♦ Full and half-duplex for both 10Mbps and 100Mbps
connections. The 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet
module operates at full-duplex only. Full-duplex
allows the switch port to simultaneously transmit
and receive data, and only works with connections to
full-duplex capable end stations and switches.
Connections to hubs must take place at half-duplex.
♦ Auto-polarity detection and correction of incorrect
polarity on the receive twisted-pair at each port.
♦ Data forwarding rate 14,880pps per port at 100% of
wire-speed for 10Mbps speed.
