Configuring the DIP Switches
Configure the DIP switches using the information in Table 10.
When setting the DIP switches, consider the following:
❒DIP switch 4 controls Auto-Negotiation on both ports. When Auto-
Negotiation is enabled, the duplex mode on the fiber optic port and the
speed and duplex mode on the twisted pair port are set automatically
by the media converter. When Auto-Negotiation is disabled, you can
use the other DIP switches to manually configure these settings.
❒If you enable Auto-Negotiation, be sure that the end-nodes are also
configured for Auto-Negotiation.
