Performance Features

The Dual-speed FriendlyNet Hubs offer the following features:

10/100Mbps Auto-sensing

In Auto-sensing mode, hubs will automatically detect whether the network
station is connected for 10Mbps or 100Mbps transmission speed.

Three-Speed Mode Setup (Ports 1 and 8 Only)

Three-speed mode set up is useful for special network environments such as
10Mbps or 100Mbps only. By setting the DIP switches, the MDI-II ports can
operate in one of three speed modes:

Auto-sensing mode

100Mbps mode

10Mbps mode

To manually set a speed for your network, refer to “Setting up Forced Speed for
the MDI-II Ports” in Chapter 2.
