Speed: Gigabit Fiber connections can operate in 1000M Auto or Disabled. Copper connections can operate
in Forced Mode settings (1000M Full, 100M Full, 100M Half, 10M Full, 10M Half), Auto, or Disabled. The
default setting for all ports is Auto.
NOTE: Be sure to
adjust port speed settings
appropriately after changing the connected cable
media types.
NOTE: All ports do not support MDI/MDI-X
function when the speed links to 1000M force
mode.
MDI/MDIX:
A medium dependent interface (MDI) port is an Ethernet port connection typically used on the Network
Interface Card (NIC) or Integrated NIC port on a PC. Switches and hubs usually use Medium dependent
interface crossover (MDIX) interface. When connecting the Switch to end stations, user have to use
straight through Ethernet cables to make sure the Tx/Rx pairs match up properly. When connecting the
Switch to other networking devices, a crossover cable must be used.
This switch provides a configurable MDI/MDIX function for users. The switches can be set as an MDI port in
order to connect to other hubs or switches without an Ethernet crossover cable.
Auto MDI/MDIX is designed on the switch to detect if the connection is backwards, and automatically
chooses MDI or MDIX to properly match the connection. The default setting is “Auto” MDI/MDIX.
