Auto: In this mode of operation the media converter will negotiate
Ethernet parameters on the copper connection. This will ensure the
most optimal connection parameters will be in effect. If the copper link
partner does not support Auto negotiation, the S-100 will default to
100 Mbps and Half Duplex mode.
Off: Auto Negotiation should only be turned off, if the copper link
partner does not support Auto Negotiation.
When the Auto Negotiation switch is set to the OFF position, the
media converter will operate at 100 Mbps and Full Duplex mode.
