The FS710 Series switches feature twisted pair copper ports.

Connector

All twisted pair ports feature 8-pin RJ-45 connectors. For the port pinouts, see “RJ-45 Twisted Pair Port Connectors” on page 64.

Speed

The ports are 10Base-T, and 100Base-T compliant and are capable of 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps speeds. The ports are IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation compliant. With Auto-Negotiation, the switch automatically matches the highest possible common speed between each switch port and each endnode. For example, if an end-node is capable of only 10 Mbps, the switch sets the port connected to the end-node to 10 Mbps.

Duplex Mode

Note

Each twisted pair port on the switch can operate in either half- or fullduplex mode. The twisted pair ports are IEEE 802.3u-compliant and automatically negotiate the duplex mode setting.

In order for the switch to set the duplex mode for each port correctly, the end-nodes that you connect to the switch ports also need to be configured for Auto-Negotiation. Otherwise, a duplex mode mismatch can occur affecting network performance. For further information, refer to “Duplex Mode” on page 27.

Auto MDI/MDI-X

All of the twisted pair ports on the switch feature auto-MDI to automatically configure themselves as MDI or MDI-X when connected to an end-node. Consequently, you can use a straight-through twisted pair cable to connect any network device to a port.

The twisted pair ports on the switch feature Auto-MDI. Each port is individually configured as MDI or MDI-X when connected to an endnode. Consequently, you can use a straight-through twisted pair cable when connecting any network device to a twisted pair port on the switch. A port operating at 10 or 100 Mbps uses four of the eight strands in twisted pair wiring. See Table 15 and Table 16 on page 64 for more information.

Note

Ethernet Switching Basics

An Ethernet switch interconnects network devices, such as workstations, printers, routers, and other Ethernet switches, so that they can communicate with each other by sending and receiving Ethernet frames.

Duplex Mode Duplex mode refers to how an end node receives and transmits data. If an

end node can receive or transmit data, but not both simultaneously, it is operating in what is referred to as half-duplex mode. If an end node can both receive and transmit data simultaneously, the end node is operating in full-duplex mode. Naturally, an end node capable of operating in fullduplex can handle data much faster than an end node that can only operate in half-duplex mode.

The twisted pair ports on the FS710 Series switches can operate in half- or full-duplex mode for 10/100 Mbps. They are IEEE 802.3u-compliant and use Auto-Negotiation to set the duplex mode setting for you automatically.

Store and

Forward

Back Pressure

and Flow Control

In order for a switch port to successfully Auto-Negotiate its duplex mode with a 10 or 100 Mbps end-node, the end-node should also be configured for Auto-Negotiation. Otherwise, a duplex mode mismatch can occur. A switch port using Auto-Negotiation defaults to half-duplex if it detects that the end-node is not using AutoNegotiation. This results in a mismatch if the end-node is operating at a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex.

The FS710 Series switches use store and forward as the method for receiving and transmitting frames. When a Ethernet frame is received on a switch port, the switch does not retransmit the frame out the destination port until it has received the entire frame and stored the frame in a port buffer. It then examines the frame to determine if it is a valid frame. Invalid frames, such as fragments or runts, are discarded by the switch. This insures that only valid frames are transmitted out the switch ports and that damaged frames are not propagated on your network.

To maintain the orderly movement of data between the end-nodes, an Ethernet switch may periodically need to signal an end-node to stop sending data. This can occur under several circumstances. For example, if two end-nodes are operating at different speeds, the switch, while transferring data between the end-nodes, might need to instruct the faster end-node to stop transmitting data to allow the slower end-node to catch up. An example of this would be when a server operating at 100 Mbps is sending data to a workstation operating at only 10 Mbps.

How a switch signals an end-node to stop transmitting data differs depending on the duplex mode of the end-node and switch port. A twisted pair port operating in half-duplex mode stops an end-node from transmitting data by forcing a collision. A collision on an Ethernet network occurs when two end-nodes attempt to transmit data using the same data link at the same time. A collision causes an end-node to stop sending data, wait for a brief period of time, and then retransmit the same data. Once the switch is ready to receive data again, the switch stops forcing collisions. This is referred to as backpressure.

A port operating in full-duplex mode uses PAUSE frames, as specified in the IEEE 802.3x standard, to stop the transmission of data from an endnode. Whenever the switch wants an end-node to stop transmitting data, it issues this frame. The frame instructs the end-node to cease transmission for a period of time specified within the frame. The switch continues to issue PAUSE frames until it is ready again to receive data from the endnode. This is referred to as flow control.
