10/100BASE-T Ports
You can set the 10/100BASE-T ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s over IP standard M12 cabling. The ports
can operate in full-duplex, half-duplex, autonegotiate (default), or never half-duplex mode.
A
Never Half Duplex
option for a port functions as the name implies, the link is never established at half
duplex; it is either full-duplex or no link. Never Half Duplex avoids the unpredictable response times that in
a CSMA/CD network can cause safety features to trip or interruptions that require restarting the process flow.
