The 2H28-08R, with an optional FE-100TX installed in port 7 or 8, provides an RJ45 connection that supports UTP cabling. The device at the other end of the twisted pair segment must meet IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet network requirements for the devices to operate at 100 Mbps. Refer to the Cabletron Systems Cabling Guide for details.
The 2H28-08R with an FE-100TX installed is capable of operating at either 10 or 100 Mbps. The FE-100TX can be set to automatically sense the speed of the other device and adjust its speed accordingly.
