3.2.1.1 SW1 - Port 1 Auto/Manual Negotiation “AN MAN”
When this DIP-switch is in the Auto-Negotiate “AN” position (factory default), the fiber optic port is
transparent to the network and allows the end devices connected to the module to advertise through the
module and establish negotiated settings between the end devices. If Port 2 (UTP) is not connected, the
fiber port will not be able to establish a fiber link. In the AN mode, the DIP-switches for Pause, Port 2
(UTP) and link modes RFD and SFD are ignored.
If two Gx AN modules are connected together and Port 1 is configured for Auto-Negotiation, the mode of
operation will be determined by the devices connected to Port 2 (UTP). Port 1 is transparent to the process.
When this DIP-switch is in the Manual “MAN” position, the advertised values of Port 2 is controlled by
DIP-switches SW2 through SW5.
3.2.1.2 SW2 and SW3 - Port 2 (UTP) Settings “AN MAN” “FDX HDX”
These DIP-switches are only valid when Port 1 is set to “MAN”. Port 2 is always set to Auto-Negotiation
and DIP-switch SW2 and SW3 only defines what modes are advertised. See Port 2 (UTP) Configuration
Matrix.
