CHAPTER 23
Port Configuration
23.1 Overview
The EMG2926-Q10A has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The duplex mode can be both
half or full duplex. An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed
(10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
WAN/LAN1~4 This field displays the Ethernet port of the EMG2926-Q10A.
Speed Select the speed of the Ethernet connection on this port. The choices are Auto, 1000,
100 and 10.
Selecting Auto (auto-negotiation) allows one port to negotiate with a peer port
automatically to obtain the connection speed that both ends support. If the peer port
does not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the EMG2926-Q10A
determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable and using half
duplex mode.
