4.0 OPERATION
4.1 Dual-Speed Functionality, and Switching
The Magnum S14-Series Convenient Switches provide four switched
ports(three ports in the front and one on the rear). The architecture supports a dual speed
switching environment, with auto-negotiation capability.
The switched RJ-45 ports are full-duplex and auto-sensing for speed. (See section
2.2). When the connected device is 10 Mbps, the S14s obeys all the rules of 10 Mbps
Ethernet configurations. The 10 Mbps users share a 10 Mbps traffic domain, and can
“communicate with” 100Mbps users as well as 100Mbps domain. Similarly, the 100Mbps
traffic obeys the rules of 100Mbps Ethernet, and can communicate with 10 Mb domain too.
