domain, reducing the overall load on the network.
The Switch performs “Store-and-forward” therefore, no error packets occur. More reliably, it reduces the re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.
Auto-Negotiation
The STP ports on the Switch have built-in "Auto-Negotiation." This technology automatically sets the best possible bandwidth when a connection is established with another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is done by detect the modes and speeds at the second of both device is connected and capable of. Both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX devices can connect with the 100Base-TX port in either Half- or Full-Duplex mode.
If attached device is: | 100Base-TX port will set to: |
| |
*10Mbps, no auto-negotiation | 10Mbps |
| |
*10Mbps, with auto-negotiation | 10/20Mbps (10Base-T/Full-Duplex) |
| |
*100Mbps, no auto-negotiation | 100Mbps |
| |
*100Mbps, with auto-negotiation | 100/200Mbps (100Base-TX/Full-Duplex) |

3.2 The Smart Function (16-port model)
The FSD-1600 and FSD-1601 is with one DIP switch on the rear of the switch, these ON/ OFF switches provides the functions as below:
•Twisted Pair or Fiber-optic selection
•Port based VLAN
•Port Trunking
•ToS/ QoS selection
•Priority Setup
They are all in OFF position by default!
3.2.1 TP or Fiber-optic selection (for FSD-1601 only)
Related DIP: 1, 2
Default meaning: Port#16 runs in Twisted pair, Auto-Negotiation.
DIP 1: Turns on will force the fiber-optic port enabled.
Please do not turn on if you are using FSD-1600.
NOTE:
DIP 2: Turns on will force the 100Base-FX fiber-optic port runs in Full-duplex mode.
