1.1 Features
Designed for resolving congestion problems caused by bandwidth-hun- gry devices and bandwidth-intensive applications as well as a high num- ber of users, the switches not only adhere to the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T, IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX, and 100BASE-FX standards, but also feature:
•Nine of 10/100BASE-TX auto-negotiation switched ports for flexible connections to desktop PCs, servers and hubs.
•The 10/100BASE-TX switched ports support:
-auto speed sensing for 100Mbps or 10Mbps connection
-auto configuration with auto-negotiation devices
•One 100Mbps Fast Ethernet fiber slot supports:
-100BASE-FX ST fiber module for MM fiber
-100BASE-FX SC fiber module for MM and SM fiber
-100BASE-FX MT-RJ fiber module for MM and SM fiber
-100BASE-FX VF-45 fiber module for MM fiber
