24.1 Overview
The EMG6765-Q10A has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The duplex mode can be both half or full
duplex. An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100/1000
Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device.

Selecting
Auto
(auto-negotiation) allows one port to negotiate with a peer port
automatically to obtain the connection speed that both ends support. If the peer port does
not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the EMG6765-Q10A determines the
connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half duplex mode.
