3.1.1 Multi-Gigabit Ethernet Ports
The Switch has 10GBase-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In Multi-Gigabit Ethernet, the
speed can be 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, or 10G. The duplex mode can be full duplex only.
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G,
and 10G) and full duplex mode of the connected device.
An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover
Ethernet cable.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port negotiates with the peer automatically to
determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-
negotiation or turns off this feature, the Switch determines the connection speed by detecting the signal
on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the Switch’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet
port uses the pre-configured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thereby requiring
you to make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
3.1.1.1 Default Ethernet Negotiation Settings
The factory default negotiation settings for the Gigabit ports on the Switch are:
• Speed: Auto
• Duplex: Auto
• Flow control: Off
• Link Aggregation: Disabled
100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G,
and 10G RJ-45 PoE
Ports
Port 25 – 28
These are 10GBase-T auto-negotiating and auto-crossover Ethernet port, with support for
IEEE802.3bt PoE++ 60 W ports.
Connect these ports to a PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) camera, a WiFi 6 (802.11ax) router, a WiFi 6
(802.11ax) AP, or an Ethernet switch.
1G, 10G SFP+ Slots
Port 29 – 30
Use SFP+ transceivers in these ports for high-bandwidth backbone connections. You can
also insert an SFP+ Direct Attach Copper (DAC) in the SFP+ slot.
