Series Combo- 4ports to be fixed, even if the attached device may or may not support full- duplex. This is desirable when there are unknown devices presently or potentially connected, which will not operate correctly with full-duplex. Examples include hubs that support only hal duplex by default.

If auto-negotiation will not function properly in your setup, internal jumpe allow the speed and mode of the LE14XXA-Series RJ-45 (copper) 4-ports to be fixed, even if the attached device may or may not support auto-negotiation. This is desirable when there are unknown devices presently or potentially connected, which will not operate correctly with auto-negotiation. Examples include some NICs and most Media Converters.

3.7Fiber 10Mb ports, internal jumper settings for 10Mb fixed Half- or Full-Duplex at all ports

The factory (default) setting is for half-duplex on all fiber 10Mbps ports, which is generally popular. HDX works well under most circumstances. If half-duplex on 10Mbps will not function properly in your setup, internal jumpers allow the duplex mode of th LE14XXA-Series fiber 4- ports to be changed, even if the attached device supports full-duplex. This is desirable when there are devices connected which will not operate correctly with half- duplex. Examples include Switches that support full-duplex only.
