3Com SS3 BASELINE 100/1000 SW 6-PORT User Manual - Eatures
inhibiting the devices from generating more packets until
the period of congestion ends.
Flow control is implemented using the IEEE 802.3x
standard for ports operating in full duplex mode.
The Baseline 10/100/1000 Switch 6-Port supports a
maximum of 8,192 MAC addresses.
The numbers in this diagram refer to numbered sections
in the text.

1 6 RJ-45 10/100/1000 Ports
WARNING
: RJ-45 ports. These are shielded RJ-45 data
sockets. They cannot be used as telephone sockets. Only
connect RJ-45 data connectors to these sockets. Either
shielded or unshielded data cables with shielded or
unshielded jacks can be connected to these data
sockets.
AVERTISSEMENT: Les ports RJ-45. Il s’agit de prises
femelles blindées de données RJ-45. Vous ne pouvez pas
les utiliser comme prise de téléphone. Branchez
uniquement des connecteurs de données RJ-45 sur ces
prises femelles. Les câbles de données blindés ou non
blindés, avec les jacks blindés ou non blindés, l’un ou
l’autre, peuvent être branchés à ces prises de courant de
données.
WARNUNG: RJ-45-Anschlüsse. Dies sind abgeschirmte
RJ-45-Datenbuchsen. Sie können nicht als Telefon-
anschlußbuchsen verwendet werden. An diesen Buchsen
dürfen nur RJ-45-Datenstecker angeschlossen werden.
Diese Datenstecker können entweder mit abgeschirmten
oder unabgeschirmten Datenkabeln mit abgeschirmten
oder unabgeschirmten Klinkensteckern verbunden
werden.
The Baseline 10/100/1000 Switch 6-Port has 6
10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiating ports. Each port
automatically determines the correct speed and duplex
mode as one of the following:
10BASE-T half duplex
10BASE-T full duplex
100BASE-TX half duplex
100BASE-TX full duplex
1000BASE-T full duplex
CAUTION: The Baseline 10/100/1000 Switch 6-Port
supports full duplex auto-negotiation. If the connected
device does not support auto-negotiation, the Switch will
operate in half duplex mode (even if the device is
operating in full duplex mode). In such a configuration,
you may notice some degradation of network
performance. 3Com recommends that you use devices
that are capable of auto-negotiation (and that you ensure
that auto-negotiation is enabled, if it is a configurable
option).
All ports auto-sense an MDI/MDIX connection and can
be used to connect to either another switch port, server,
or workstation without additional configuration. Each
port can be connected to a device with a normal
‘straight through’ TP (twisted pair) cable or a ‘cross-over’
TP cable.
