Polarity. The Polarity column shows the state of each UTP port’s receive

pair polarity: either Normal or Reversed.

Normal indicates correct polarity.

Reversed indicates incorrect polarity — software has detected that

your wiring has been installed with reversed polarity. It has also

subsequently corrected it. Operator intervention is not required.

AT-S16 Port

Status Screen

Choose the AT-S16, AT-TS95TR, Port Status screen. Note that it only has

eight (8) ports and includes an Interface column. The Port, Link, Status and

Polarity columns are identical to the AT-S13/AT-S14 screen. Only the

Interface column is added.

You can change any port’s conﬁguration by entering the port number then

pressing <Return>. Pressing <Return> without entering a port number

exits this dialog and returns you to the Main menu.

Interface. There are two options for this column: Backplane and Front

Panel.

Backplane. Backplane would indicate that a port of the AT-TS95TR switch is

connected via the TurboStack Segmented Backplane to a unit installed in the

port that is indicated.

Front Panel. This is the default. In this state, the unit is connected to other

units installed in the TurboStack via the Segmented Backplane unless there is

also a connection to the AT-TS95TR switch via the front panel RJ-45

connector. If there is a front panel connection, the connection made via the

front panel takes over the port and any connection to the port via the

TurboStack’s Segmented Backplane is disconnected.
