Smart Link Pass-Through: In this mode, the link state on one port connection is directly reflected through the media converter to the other port connection. If link is lost on one of the connections, then the other link will be brought down by the media converter.

Standard Mode: In this mode, the links can be brought up and down independently of each other. A loss of link on either connection can occur without affecting the other fiber connection.
