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.
