Ethernet Port
Overview
The following features are found in the Ethernet ports of the Switch 7750:
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X
auto-sensing, and can be configured to operate in half/full duplex mode or
auto-negotiation mode to negotiate the duplex mode and speed with other
network devices. This also allows you to use the optimal mode automatically.
100BASE-FX-MMF Ethernet ports operate in 100 Mbps full duplex mode. The
duplex mode can be configured as full (full duplex) or auto (auto-negotiation).
The speed can be set to 100 (100 Mbps) or auto (auto-negotiation).
1000BASE-X Gigabit Ethernet ports work in gigabit full duplex mode. The
duplex mode can be configured as full (full duplex) or auto (auto-negotiation).
The speed can be set to 1000 (1000Mbps) or auto (auto-negotiation).
10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports support MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing,
and the modes are 1000 Mbps full duplex, 100 Mbps half/full duplex, and 10
Mbps half/full duplex. These modules also support auto-negotiation
10GBASE-R-XENPAK 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports work in 10-gigabit full duplex
mode. The duplex mode can be configured as full (full duplex) or auto
(autonegotiation), and the speed can be set to 10000 (10000 Mbps) or auto
(autonegotiation).
