3.1.3 FX Duplex Setting SW7
This setting is used to set the duplex mode of the FX port. It is recom-
mended to use full duplex mode for FX connection unless its link partner
is a fixed half duplex device. Half duplex mode will shorten the connec-
tion distance. The following table lists the maximum MMF cable length
connecting to different devices:
Link Partner of FX Port Distance (MMF cable)
Network card half-duplex fiber port 400 m
Network card full-duplex fiber port 2 km
Class I hub half-duplex fiber port 160 m
2 Class II hub half-duplex fiber port 112 m
Switched half-duplex fiber port 400 m
Switched half-duplex fiber port 2 km
Note: For SMF connection, be sure the link partner is a full duplex
device and set SW7 to full duplex mode for the FX port.
