Ethernet Full Duplex Configuration Screen

OPERATION MODE (Toggle)

Allows the user to set the specified port to transmit and receive data separately (Standard) or simultaneously (Full Duplex). Set this field to one of the following values:

STANDARD ENET The port is running at 10 Mbps (default) and either transmits data or receives data, but not both at the same time. To set Ethernet ports for Standard operation, refer to Section 5.11.1.

FULL DUPLEX – The port transmits and receives data simultaneously at 10 Mbps, thus enabling the port to effectively switch at 20 Mbps. To set Ethernet ports for Full Duplex operation, refer to Section 5.11.1.

LINK STATUS (Read-only)

Indicates whether there is a physical connection from this port to another 10BASE-F device. One of the following values displays:

Link – There is a 10BASE-F link signal present; there is a valid physical connection from this port to another 10BASE-F device.

No Link – No 10BASE-F link signal present; there is no valid physical connection from this port to another 10BASE-F device.

PORT STATUS (Read-only)

Indicates whether the port was turned on or off administratively. One of the following values is displayed:

ENABLED – The port is turned on administratively.

DISABLED – The port is turned off administratively.

NOTE

Enabling or disabling ports from the Switch Configuration screen is described in Section 5.10.3.

SET ALL PORTS (Toggle)

All ports (1 through 24) can be set at once to either STANDARD or FULL from this command field. To set ports, refer to Section 5.11.1.

2E49-27R, 2E48-27R specifications

Cabletron Systems 2E48-27R and 2E49-27R are powerful network switching devices that are designed to enhance the performance and reliability of network infrastructures. These devices play a critical role in ensuring seamless data transmission, making them essential for both enterprise environments and larger network setups.

One of the standout features of the Cabletron Systems 2E48-27R and 2E49-27R is their high-density design. The 2E48-27R model is equipped with 48 Ethernet ports, while the 2E49-27R includes 48 Ethernet ports along with an additional uplink capability that enhances flexibility in network connections. This high port density allows organizations to efficiently manage and connect multiple devices without taking up excessive space, making the devices ideal for environments where space is a premium.

Both models incorporate advanced switching technologies that support high throughput and low latency. This ensures that data packets are processed quickly and accurately, providing users with consistent performance and minimal delays. They also support various networking standards, including IEEE 802.3, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices and systems.

Another key characteristic of the 2E48-27R and 2E49-27R is their support for VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks). This functionality allows network administrators to segment network traffic for better organization and security. By isolating different types of traffic, VLANs help to improve performance and reduce congestion, making it easier to manage network resources effectively.

In terms of management capabilities, both models offer robust features through SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This allows for centralized network monitoring and management, giving administrators the tools they need to troubleshoot issues quickly and maintain optimal network performance. Additionally, the devices support easy upgrades and configuration changes, which can be crucial for adapting to evolving networking needs.

Security is another paramount feature included in the Cabletron Systems 2E48-27R and 2E49-27R. They offer access control lists (ACLs) and other security measures that help protect the network from unauthorized access and potential threats.

In summary, Cabletron Systems 2E48-27R and 2E49-27R are robust networking devices that combine high-density port configurations, advanced switching technologies, VLAN support, and comprehensive management capabilities. These features make them well-suited for high-demand network environments, ensuring efficient and secure data transmission while maximizing organizational performance.
