Flow Control

Half-duplex mode uses back pressure flow control to prevent the receiv- ing buffer from being overrun by data from a source node. Full-duplex mode uses the 802.3x flow control standard to prevent fast Physical Ports data traffic from overrunning slow data traffic.

UTP Cable Connections

When making a connection to another device using straight-through UTP cable, make sure MDI-X to MDI connection rule is followed. The following figure illustrates the pin assignments of a straight-through UTP and a crossover UTP cable:

Straight-through and Crossover UTP Cable

It is suggested to use straight-through UTP cables for all UTP connec- tions. The maximum length and UTP cable categories used for the con- nections to a 10BASE-T device and 100BASE-TX device are:

CONNECTED DEVICE	UTP CABLE USED & MAXIMUM LENGTH
10BASE-T device	Cat. 3, 4, 5 UTP (100 meters)
100BASE-TX device	Cat. 5 UTP (100 meters)
