Fig. 11 S1-Bit 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 Configuration and Setting
S1-1
TP port mode
: AUTO (Default) or FORCE
S1-2
TP port speed
: 100 (Default) or 10 when TP at FORCE
S1-3
TP port duplex
: FDX (Default) or HDX when TP at FORCE
S1-4
LFP
: LFP enabled (Default) or disabled
S1-5
Fiber port duplex
: 100FDX (Default) or 100HDX
Note: S1-2 and S1-3 will take effect only when S1-1 is set at TP-FORCE.
Warning:
—
When TP N-Way port is connected to TP 100FDX (FORCE mode) instead N-Way
partner, it will result in 100HDX mode with invalid collision signal
—
Ensure that all network nodes are configured at an identical operation mode.
Improper operation and flow control modes between TP and fiber port
connections will render the LAN at work poorly

Cable Connection Parameter
100Base-X network allows 512-bit time delay between any two node-stations in a
collision domain. Switch-based Media Converter breaks up TP and fiber segments’
collision domain to extend the cabling distance.
