Auto-negotiation Notes

connected fiber link in conjunction with the existing UTP port auto-negotia -
tion ..The.control.switch.is.located.at.the.side.of.the.unit .
2 .When.the.Fiber.Port.Negotiation.function.is.turned-on.[the.default.posi-
tion],.it.allows.the.MAC.[media.access.control].behind.the.other.connected.
device's fiber port to "see" the converter's copper port auto-negotiation with
its.link.partner.and.participate.in.the.end-to-end.negotiation.process ...This.
will tend to eliminate opposite ends of a series of copper/fiber segments

port,.auto-negotiaion.between.the.converter.and.the.other.connected.devices.
is allowed. The converter's fiber port will transparently forward all traffic.
