Omnitron Systems Technology FlexSwitch 6540 FK - Manual (Page 6)

3.3 Configuring the DIP-Switches
The 6540-FK has been pre-configured with Auto-Negotiation enabled on all
UTP ports for plug and play easy of use. However, the iConverter modules
offer additional configuration flexibility.
3.3.1 Media Converter Modules - Front Panel
The Media Converter Modules have been pre-configured as illustrated below.
Using the front panel DIP-Switch, the module can be re-configured for customer
specific applications.
Media Converter Module Front Panel DIP-Switch
Fiber Full/Half-Duplex “FDX / HDX” DIP-Switch
When in the Fiber Full/Half-Duplex DIP-Switch is in the “FDX” position
(factory default), the fiber port operates in Full-Duplex mode. When in the
“HDX” position, the fiber port operates in Half-Duplex mode and its distance
is limited by the IEEE 802.3 standard to 412 meters.
UTP Auto/Manual Negotiate “AN / MAN” DIP-Switch
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch is in the Auto-Negotiate “AN” position
(factory default), the converter Auto-Negotiates and matches the 10/100 speed
and duplex mode of a mating Auto-Negotiating device connected to its UTP
port.
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch is in the “Man” position, the converter
does not auto-Negotiate and operates in the mode selected by the Full/Half
Duplex “FDX/HDX” and “10/100” DIP-Switches.
UTP 10/100 “10 / 100” DIP-Switch
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch is in the “Man” position, the UTP
“10/100” DIP-Switch selects the speed of the UTP port. When in the “100”
position (factory default), the UTP port operates at 100 Mbps. When in the
“10” position the UTP port operates at 10 Mbps.
UTP Full/Half-Duplex “FDX / HDX” DIP-Switch
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch is in the “Man” position, the “FDX/HDX”
DIP-Switch selects the duplex mode of the UTP port. When in the “FDX” position
(factory default), the UTP port operates in Full-Duplex mode. When in the
“HDX” position, the UTP port operates in Half-Duplex. Set the duplex mode
to match the connecting device and check for link status.
