Ethernet Operation
The Ethernet interface supports "Auto-Negotiation" and will operate at either 10Mbits/s half duplex or
100Mbit/s full duplex. Data is transmitted from one port the other port with minimum delay or buffering.
The port also implements "Auto MDI/MDIX" i.e. it may be connected with aeither a straight-though or
cross-over cable to an appropriate device such as external switch, PC or other DCE/DTE.
Two LED indicators are provided adjacent to the RJ-45 port: Green indicates Link / Data transfer and
Yellow when in half-duplex mode.
