Chapter 1
10/100 Ports
You can set the 10/100 ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s in full-duplex or
half-duplex mode. You can also set these ports for speed and duplex
autonegotiation in compliance with IEEE 802.3-2002. (The default setting is
autonegotiate.)
When set for autonegotiation, the port senses the speed and duplex settings of
the attached device. If the connected device also supports autonegotiation, the
switch port negotiates the best connection (that is, the fastest line speed that
both devices support and full-duplex transmission if the attached device
supports it) and configures itself accordingly. In all cases, the attached device
must be within 100 m (328 ft.) of the switch.
100BASE-FX Ports
The IEEE 802.3-2002 100BASE-FX ports (on the 1783-MX08F expansion
module) provide full-duplex 100 Mb/s connectivity over multimode fiber
(MMF) cables. These ports use a built-in, small-form-factor fixed (SFF)
fiber-optic transceiver module that accepts a dual LC connector. The cable can
be up to 2 km (1.24 miles) in length.
Rear Panel
The rear panel of the switches and expansion modules have latches for
installation on either a DIN rail or a wall, as shown in the following figure. The
latches slide outward to position the switch over the DIN rail and slide inward
to secure the switch to a DIN rail. The feet must be extended when mounting
the switch on heavy-duty (35 x 15mm) DIN rail or they may be extended for
improved ventilation when wall mounting.
