The Industrial Gigabit Ethernet Switch performs "Store and Forward"; therefore, no error packets occur. More

reliably, it reduces the re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.

4.5 Auto-Negotiation

The STP ports on the Industrial Gigabit Ethernet Switch have a built-in “Auto-negotiation”. This technology

automatically sets the best possible bandwidth when a connection is established with another network device (usually

at Power On or Reset). This is done by detecting the modes and speeds at the second of both devices. Both 10Base-T

and 100Base-TX devices can be connected with the port in either Half- or Full-Duplex mode. 1000Base-T can be only

connected in Full-duplex mode.
