Setting DIP Switch
NOTE: The Auto-Negotiation system is designed so that a twisted-pair
link will not become operational until matching capabilities exist at
each end. The Auto-Negotiation protocol is NOT able to test the
cable. The installer must ensure that the correct cable type is installed
to support the highest speed and mode of operation to be selected.
To set network speed(s) and operation mode(s) using DIP switch:
1. Locate the DIP switch at the back of the Transition Network’s
Pocket Switch.
2. Using a VERY small flatblade screwdriver or similar device and
the table below, set Port 1 DIP switch to select one of the
following modes:
• Auto-Negotiation (twisted-pair only)
• 100 Mb/sec – full-duplex (twisted-pair OR fiber)
• 100 Mb/sec – half-duplex (twisted-pair OR fiber)
• 10 Mb/sec – full-duplex (twisted-pair only)
• 10 Mb/sec – half-duplex (twisted-pair only)
3. Repeat for Port 2 (twisted-pair only).
NOTE: Switch 4 is unused.
Network distances can be extended to up to 2000 meters by installing a
full-duplex fiber network interface card in the network device and then
connecting fiber cable between the network device and the Transition
Networks’ pocket switch.
Class I and Class II Fast Ethernet Repeaters
Both 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX use the same signalling techniques,
so either Class I or Class II repeaters can be installed in the Transition
Networks’ Fast Ethernet pocket switch network.
